cambridgeshire canary 5,833 Posted July 14, 2020 Hope Brentford go up, mostly because much as I'm not a fan of London clubs (far too many of them..) it would be nice to see a fresh first timer in the Prem Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midlands Yellow 3,532 Posted July 14, 2020 What a finish to a season that should never have been restarted. Teams being promoted and relegated on merit, what’s not to like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KiwiScot 1,265 Posted July 14, 2020 Fulham, Leeds, West Brom. x3 strong teams got rid of including the bogey team. Nottingham will be a contender next season and Bristol always lurking Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aggy 725 Posted July 14, 2020 Forest usually bottle it, they don’t worry me too much. This season it would be surprising if it wasn’t Fulham or Brentford who go up with the top two - they’ve been better than Forest and everyone from 6th to 12th. Next season I’d rather play against Brentford than Fulham, so hopefully Fulham do it in the playoffs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 1,788 Posted July 14, 2020 it will be enjoyable watching around 18 clubs battling for success, or against failure not sure if it has been this close with just the three games to go I suspect they'll be a club (or two) who will be grateful the season was played out rather than it being ended early Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Icecream Snow 759 Posted July 14, 2020 (edited) Wigan 5-0 up at Hull, so look like they'll stay up even with a 12 point penalty, and only 40 minutes gone so far! Edited July 14, 2020 by Icecream Snow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill 1,788 Posted July 14, 2020 WBA held at Fulham giving Brentford the chance of narrowing it to a point between them 9they play Weds) with a better goal difference as well Saggies to end up in the play offs instead of the automatics ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
