| Rest of the Championship thread 25/26 12:46 - Jun 6 with 514039 views | Northernr | New version for new season as Sheff Wed enter transfer embargo... Old thread here... Rest of the Championship thread by Hunterhoop 10 Aug 2024 11:07Toyed 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 25/26 on 14:29 - Feb 7 by stevec | We stay in touch. Wrexham Millwall, do we want Mill to win and keep a one win gap between us and sixth place but move Millwall 9 points clear, or a Wrexham win and two teams to aim at? A draw perhaps! |
I'd be quite happy for Wrexham to lose all of their remaining fixtures. |  |

Can’t believe they didn’t win today. Oxford with 8 yellow cards probs tells a story.

If we have a chance to finish 6th, we need to turn some of these away draws into wins by being more positive even if it leads to the odd defeat. 4 recent aways draws at Sheff Utd, Stoke, Oxford and Charlton all felt like we could have won a couple of them by being more positive earlier in the game. If we had won two and lost two, we would be 2 points better off. |  |

Their first win in 20 games apparently, Cambridge had won the last seven. We thought last week was unlikely. |  | |  |

Yep - its a sad, sad situation for Sheff Wed - I don't want to intrude on private grief. Complete disintegration, rather than relegation, has long been the only issue there. No easy games at this level? There is one. A 23-team league from now on in. [Post edited 8 Feb 14:19]

I think he understands the situation he’s in. It’s a shop window for him to either go there permanently under the new ownership next season or secure another move most likely unless he does really well and gets a chance here which feels unlikely. They were very poor today and even for their situation are doing poorly with the players they do have. |  | |  |

That free kick was a bit of a bazooka but I’d be expecting my keeper to do better with anything straight at him. On his loan I’d say it’s great he’s getting games but these games will all be a bit “playground keeper”. The other part of top level keeping is concentration and controlling a defence as well as distribution now. He’ll be getting little of that. Hope he has a few games where he’s standout |  |

I'd say it's karma for putting up the Bristol City score when we played there in the 03/04 last game of the season. Joking aside, no club should go through what they're going through. |  |
