Welcome back Mackems!
Haven't forgotten this.
A bigger cheer for our result than Newcastle losing as well. Never noticed that

6 points of scum guaranteedUnfortunately they'll be the new Southampton. They need about 11 players. They have maybe 1 or 2 that are good enough. Southampton would probably wipe the floor with them to be honest.
Burnley have a decent manager and a good defence, just 16 conceded in 46 games, I know the PL is a step up but that's still impressive as fuck.
That said, I'm glad for Sunderland, great set of fans.

I'm very happy with all 3 promotees this year. And here is why.
All northern clubs, so longer journeys for those London/ Southern clubs, especially Sunderland which is the back of beyond and just gives more of a geographical balance to the PL.
It does me in and can't do anything about it that even away games for London clubs about 7 of them are still in bloody London. Not far too travel and feck all hassle for fans at stupid o'clock ko times.
One year I was monitoring Chavs and all of their December away games were v other London clubs. Meaning they had little travel and got Chrimbo at hone with their families. Just so annoying. So the more northern ( and Midlands) PL clubs there are for me is all the better.

100% this, we are under no illusion. Next season will be a whipping. The missus said to me the other week, do you want to win the playoffs, . as next year will be awful. Pondered it, but ultimately, I only ever want my team to win..Result I preferred. Happy to see Sunderland back, good club. I expect they'll struggle massively. Their squad is worse than any of the teams that came up last season. But, it might mean they can consolidate themselves as a team regularly coming up rather than fluking it and then they only need to survive once to give themselves a chance of becoming established again.
So yes, I wanted it. And once my lads headed to Wembley last minute yesterday, I really was hoping they'd experience an amazing day, for a long time I was fearing it would be a damp squib.....
But that last 20 mins....bloody hell
Totally agree, next year will be probably horrific, but it means we're back in the money and even if we yoyo a little. The funds will shore up...
You could see the difference today from a team 3 years out of league 1 v a team flirting with the prem, they were way stronger....
However, It's another rung on the way back....
A relegation battle with the rags about to commence....
I'd take that - mackems bottom with Derby-like total, and rags/spuds above them on 20 more points - and all 3 relegated!Agree 100%, I don't have affinities to either, just saying they look extremely weak, even Europa league finalists look good 20 points above them.
6 points of scum guaranteed
Yeah no doubt, the scum will probably be the new Ipswich though.
Thoroughly enjoyed that, some good little players on both sides.
Have to say the Bellingham brother is as annoying as the other one.
Good player though, probably more defensive minded from what I've seen.
Don't need to aim high next season, if they end up above united that might be enough to stay up...
Wouldn't be so sure, if they finish above United they could still be going down!

My preference is rags wooden spoon with leeds 2nd bottom and arse 18th.I'd take that - mackems bottom with Derby-like total, and rags/spuds above them on 20 more points - and all 3 relegated!
Won't happen but hey, I like my dream!
