Rest of the Championship thread 11:07 - Aug 10 with 115937 views | Hunterhoop | Toyed with this idea last season. Shall we have a thread to discuss, comment on, cover the rest of the league? A place to discuss other teams’ results, performances, financial implosions, etc? For example, last night, anyone catch either of the first two games? I didn’t. But somewhat surprised/worried Blackburn scored 4 given how they are meant to struggle. Was it Derby being utter sh*te? Sounds like Preston are continuing in the same vein of being incredibly dull. Clive, what do you think? Worth making a sticky? Might reduce the number of threads to manage. | | | | |

Rest of the Championship thread on 21:25 - Jan 24 with 1720 views | ManinBlack | If anyone is remotely interested, Hull lead Sheffield Utd 2-0. Our victory over them looking even better as they also recently drew 3-3 with Leeds after being two goals adrift. | | | |

Rest of the Championship thread on 22:03 - Jan 24 with 1432 views | Loyalitat | What a brilliant league this is. I don't for one minute believe the baseless stories being concocted re: Dunne, but even though he's about third/fouth choice centre-half for us, he's better than Robinson and I can't believe how out of sorts Ahmedhodzic looked tonight. By all accounts, they've got Choudhury coming in from Leicester on loan and J J Kenny!!, formerly with Everton. As if their squad isn't bloated enough as it is. Well done Hull. | | | |

Rest of the Championship thread on 22:04 - Jan 27 with 351 views | derbyhoop | Burnley 0-0 Leeds. The most predictable result of the season. Sky viewers must have been so thrilled. 8 attempts on goal in total, with ZERO ontarget. | |

No denying that it's impressive that Burnley have only let in (can't spell conceedid) 9 goals. Also, no denying it's a good result for us, as it keeps them both in touch... | |

This isn't a test. With that team and resource they could get promoted any way they want. They've chosen to do it the Scott Parker way, which is completely unwatchable in my opinion. Fine, we'll be Championship next year, they won't. The test is next year. Because Parker did exactly this at Bournemouth. He ground out a promotion from a squad that should have waltzed it. He demanded a whole load of expensive signings in January, almost none of which ever played serious minutes for the club. He went up, they lost every game, they got done 8-0 at Liverpool, he blamed the board for not buying him more players, he got the sack. I mean, it's a living. But what are we doing here? | | | |

Look at Bournemouth since, million times better since they sacked him They'll go up but be back down next season, i can't imagine their fans are too happy, feels like when we went up under Redknapp, it was painfully dull most of the time | | | |

Well I guess Bournemouth would say he got us there, and we've built from there. I think we're getting to the point I believe they reached in Italy a long time ago where a promotion specialist manager is hired, achieves promotion, and then effectively loses his job because you hire a guy who is versed in surviving in the top division instead. Parker gets them up, leaves, takes over Wolves next year, repeat. Still think Redknapp should have been dismissed after our play-off win. | | | |
