Championship Thread - 2022/23

[SebastianBlue]

They don't look like scoring.


*cue 3 Blackburn goals*

They’re on the ropes, and they’ve just begun swaying…

Seems strange watching the Blackburn game from this side of the ground, I always like to see the hill made famous by our fans.

 

[SebastianBlue]

Blackburn equalise!

They’ve jumped off the ropes and are slugging wildly.

 

[SebastianBlue]

Wow, Blackburn midfielder just put a half-volley screamer on to the underside of the bar.

Incredibly unlucky.

Literally an inch or so away from a brilliant winner.

Blackburn 1 - 1 Luton Town

Blackburn keep the dream of promotion alive but with only a point, it is extremely unlikely they make the playoffs now.

They were an inch away from giving themselves a real chance.

Well done to Rotherham on surviving with a good win vs Middlesborough.

Well pleased for Rotherham. It ends a sequence of 6 seasons when they have either been relegated or promoted from the 2nd Division.

Couple of really interesting last games, will Middlesbrough and Coventry play out a bore draw so Coventry join them in the playoffs and a proper shootout with Colin Wankers team at the bottom if Reading beat them, Reading stay up and Huddersfield drop.

I don't think so.
They'll want to beat Coventry.
They don't want to meet the in the 4th vs 5th play off match.

Great finish to the season, really hope Sunderland scrape into the play offs but any northern team is good.

One of the few clubs in the Championship not making a loss as well, i believe.

I've watched a few Championship games this season and i think it's been pretty poor quality-wise. VK has done a great job totally transforming Burnley's style of play and getting promoted as champions - but i can't see them, sheff utd and whoever wins the playoffs not struggling in the PL next weason

Fuck me - looking at the sides between 3rd and 6th, currently, I'd rather it was just 2 up.
Luton - Jesus Christ, that ground has hardly changed in about 30 years.
Middlesbrough - meh, but I can't put aside that 8-1.
Coventry - not forgiven for attacking the Main Stand at Maine Road for me
Millwall - let's be honest EVERY fucking club/Police Force will be praying they are overtaken at the weekend.
Come on Sunderland for me!

Incredible achievement from Warnock to keep Huddersfield up for another season.

Yes he's done a great job there.

Um, who is this American owner you speak of?

 

[Newman Noggs]

Ha ha ! Just found Reading, the abstaining bastards have been relegated alongside Wigan. The curse of FFP strikes again. Rot in Hell you self-interested twats.

Good riddance to bad rubbish.
