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.

I only saw a few minutes of this match (and none of Everton - Leeds) as Monday night in our house is quiz night.
What I did see is how much Norwich have improved since beating us twice & that they used witchcraft near the end of the game. Winning 2-1 in added time & they had SIX players in the Coventry half closing down. Most teams would have withdrawn all bar one of those & try to set up shop around their own penalty area. |  | | |

They must have about 37 wingers and unlike our plethora of equally meh options they are all fit.
They have one player out with an ACL and had one suspension for the last game in their entire quite large squad. Makes you think. | | | |

Our players are either ‘no impact’ or ‘injuries’ | | | |

They're now just signing players for the sake of it. How many wide players do they need. They've got Sakamoto, Mason-Clark, Esse (loan), Yang (loan), now this signing. They're also looking to sign a Brentford midfield player on loan.
As has been said in other posts, they look vulnerable defensively and if we can take better care of the football in the manner that Norwich did against them on Monday, who were excellent in that regard, we can get a similar result. They are nowhere near as good as Leeds were last season or Burnley, albeit the latter not being a like-for-like comparison in terms of playing style. [Post edited 28 Jan 15:45]

Hull city who I thought had a transfer embargo have signed paddy McNair and Kieran dowell. Like Millwall trying to cement down their playoff position.
Also Ipswich, how many players do they actually need? |  |

Bristol City meanwhile selling anything that isn’t tied down and manager getting restless. | | | |

Does make you think.
Makes me think is this really true. According to this website they have seven players out including two hamstring injuries, two muscle injuries and two ACLs.
I know our injury situation hasn’t been satisfactory for the last two seasons but other teams aren’t all perfect. |  | | |

Derby 2-0 up at Bristol city tonight.This really is a crazy division this season.How can brizzle lose so often but still be on the cusp of the playoffs? |  | | |

Bristol City definitely learning the hard way that if you sell all of your best players and don't replace them, this might happen. Fans might be wondering where that Semenyo money is |  |

Derby have absolutely blown Bristol away this half. My fiver on a Sanderson yellow card and a shot on goal by Twine looks very unlikely! [Post edited 30 Jan 21:03]

Every penny Derby have spent on Agyemang was worth it wasn't it. Walks into a lot of Premier League teams and Derby have probably already turned 7 million into 30 million | |

Can anyone explain to me how Derby have built such a good squad, with so much attacking depth, so quickly? Where does their money come from?
At the end of the summer, after they signed Carlton Morris, I had a small dabble in the handicap market on them, so thought they’d go well as a surprise package, but they look electric here.
Eustace…oh my, what a missed opportunity for this club. |  | | |

Eustace who we groomed for four years then ditched. | | | |

It does feel that building a pretty solid Championship side around one or two elite signings make a lot of sense initially if you want to make good money on them. Re-investing the Cashin money well | |

That Derby front four are lethal. Agyemang, Brereton, Clark and Brewster, glad we're not playing them again until the end of the season. Agyemang plays like he's playing with a younger age group.
As I write that their four replacements carve open Brizzle for a 5th. They could've had more too.
Derby look like the team who power through the play-offs...but, Sanderson and Clarke.
Just had a close-up of Rob Dickie. We've seen that look before from him. | | | |
