Yes, the football is very dull compared to the top flight. There are very few exciting players apart from 1 or 2 youngsters like Nathan Tella. I know from experience, that in years to come you'll only remember the names of your own team; the other teams' players are soon forgotten.
A lot of the grounds are half empty but ironically this can make the support sound louder as the noise of the singing sections doesn't get muffled by the crowd around them. At St Mary's it works particularly well because the small size of the away support means we actually have a home end for a change in the Northam.
Block 42 is going to be set aside next season for fans to turn up with drums, air horns and vuvuzelas to intimidate the life out of Hull, Rotherham etc etc…..
TBH I wasn’t talking about the football, my job was to to log on and check the advertising hoardings on three sides of the ground to make sure the club was compliant.
It was a lot easier when it was done face to face.
Although you are right the Championship standard is poor compared to the PL. I think both Saints and Everton will drop. There’s been a load of discussion about whether Everton will come straight back up, with loads saying they would. But the reality is the club won’t be able to pay this current squad if they get relegated so they will have to almost start from scratch.
Burnley have done it though, so there is hope.

I remember we the league one and championship days - if I’m honest I absolutely loved that period; building that team up, the connection with the fans…those years were fantastic.
I have to say under SR I’m concerned about whether we’ll be able to replicate that. If they own their mistakes, get the right man in and focus on doing things in a reasonable way instead of trying all this blue sky bollocks I think the next few seasons could be fun. If not, we could be in for a profoundly depressing time.

I doubt it - the main problem would be Everton’s better players will be sold, the average players are on top whack and way too much for the championship and even the dross earn too much for the championship.
They’d be left with younger, inexperienced players or the ones who have never been given wages over 20k a week or who’d be willing to take a pay cut, so no one then.

I used to work for EFL, the match day audits was overtime. Nice little touch to be fair, about an hours work for a full days pay and hospitality at the club.

That guy is a balloon and is talking nonsense. If they get relegated, they will be skint and Moshiri won’t get anywhere the money he wants when he comes to sell it. But there is already a lot of interest in buying the club, relegation just means they will get it cheaper.
Either way it will be rubbish. Stay up and carry on being rubbish, go down and they will be rubbish.
For me nothing much would change, I’d still go (already renewed by ST). I’d probably unsubscribe from Sky and stop following the circus for a while.

ah fair enough, i used to work for the digital marketing agency that worked with the EFL and we were sometimes tasked with finding matchday support bods for iFollow. Basically people who'd sit there and check nothing was broken
