Wings of a Sparrow 1,415 Posted July 16, 2020 Is it just me who would be a little bit pleased at Leeds getting promoted as a fitting tribute to Jack Charlton 🤔 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,535 Posted July 16, 2020 21 minutes ago, Bill said: you are getting confused with the PL when any club finishing with less than 40 points is automatically relegated (see posts on here) Nope it was always 50 points. All managers said that was their first target. Although I think recently someone was relegated on goal difference with 51 points. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The stars are aligning, last won promotion to the top flight 30 years ago when Liverpool last won the league. Just had to be Derby at Pride Park on Sunday... (assuming WBA and Brentford win).

Bill 1,788 Posted July 17, 2020 WBA v H'field tonight Should be a win for the saggies, but any dropped points mean Brentford would be a point or two behind with a game in hand Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The best performing team at the end so deserve to go up, now hoping brentford do it also as I think they are the best team to watch play and would enjoy watching them play against the PL sides.

Bill 1,788 Posted July 17, 2020 On 15/07/2020 at 22:02, Bill said: The bottom three as it stands look the most likely Wigan need to maintain their 12 point gap from the bottom three and should go some way to that against Charlton, though I doubt that will be added to in their final game v Fulham Barnsley with games v Brentford and Forest look unlikely to pick up enough to avoid the drop Hull v Luton will end the hopes of one or both as only a max 3 points avoids relegation Charlton v Leeds and Wigan, may well have to hope those below don't make up the 2 points as being their best hope and as both Luton and Hull can't both pick up maximum points it is out of one of the bottom four to avoid the drop https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/championship/table otherwise great to watch from a 'safe' distance 😃  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill 1,788 Posted July 18, 2020 (edited) So, a three way battle to see who now finishes second - WBA, Brentford, Fulham Boro not safe as a brace by Josh Murphy, with Howson sent off - as Cardiff now battle fellow taffs, Swansea, and Forest for the final play off place Luton give themselves a fighting chance with a win at Hull - leaving them with a very slim chance among the bottom six ...................who all could be relegated Set up for a cracking Weds night, when at least nine of the games will have an impact on who goes up or down and who is in the play offs  Edited July 18, 2020 by Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
