Rest of the Championship thread 11:07 - Aug 10 with 166372 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 22:16 - Feb 21 by Northernr | One of the strangest teams I’ve seen for a long time. If you’d told me they won 5-0 tonight I wouldn’t have batted an eyelid. 5 defeats in a row. |
I suppose that’s what happens when you sell Latte Lathe and Ben Doak is injured. |  | |  |

Rest of the Championship thread on 22:01 - Feb 21 by Lblock | Still think there’s a player in there My ears pricked up when hearing he was having a ruck with Manning on the bench after being subbed….. that’s not going to progress his careeer |
Despite the evidence staring you in the face? In addition to his obvious deficiencies on the pitch I always thought there was a bit of over confidence or even arrogance about him. Arguing with Manning just reinforces my opinion that this was a brilliant bit of business by Nourry. |  | |  |

Rest of the Championship thread on 13:23 - Feb 23 with 781 views | Wegerles_Stairs | As someone who found yesterday's match incredibly disappointing and frustrating, seeing Luton looking set for League 1 does put it in perspective. Really shocking to see a steroid-boosted relegated team fall off a cliff like that. |  | |  |

Couldn’t get my head around a club in receipt of parachute payments hiring a relatively untried manager who has had a good half of a season in league 1. Looked a bad decision at the time and clearly isn’t working. They’re gone. Them and Edwards a good reminder that sometimes problems are far deeper/essential than a single manager. |  | |  |

Strange thing about Luton is that it looked like the set up of their club was good as they were improving and then getting promoted - for instance, when Nathan Jones went, they continued to progress under Rob Edwards. Even in the Premier League they seemed to be doing ok for a while. Maybe they just assumed that all they had to do this season was turn up to get promoted again. |  |

My 2 cents would be that they stopped doing all the things that got them to the premier league. Look at the signings they made 2021-2024 and then look at the players they bought last summer with the prem money. As we well know, the poisoned chalice of prem recruitment can hurt you for years if you get it wrong. [Post edited 23 Feb 15:26]
