[Iamapen15]

With the Championship table currently looking like this (at the bottom):

17 Bristol City 28 -11 32
18 Portsmouth 27 -5 31
19 Ipswich 26 -6 31
20 Middlesbrough 27 -5 30
21 Sheff Utd 27 -17 27
22 Crystal Palace 27 -21 26
23 Scunthorpe 25 -18 24
24 Preston 26 -18 21

Who do NSC want to be relegated with the Palarse?

Pompey and Bristol City - both pretty shit away games.

Pompey and Bristol City - both pretty shit away games.

Based on what ? Probably 2 of the best away games

 

[Iamapen15]

For me it's; Sheff Utd (to reunite the Sheffield clubs, this time in the 3rd tier of English football) and Scunthorpe (been there done that, don't want to go back!).

 

[Gerbil]

If we go up i want Palace to stay up, couldn't care who went down instead,

Pompey and Bristol City - both pretty shit away games.

I'd say they were both a lot better trips than Scunthorpe or Preston myself

 

[algie]

Don't care as long as Palace go down.

Whilst we'll miss out on two derbies I'd like Pompey to go down as they deserve to and then Palace to go down so that we can have a good laugh at their expense and also mock their attempts to get a new stadium that they won't be able to fill.

Scunthorpe are really punching above their weight but I want them to go down for having the termerity to inquire about Muzza's availability.

 

[Acker79]

Palace and Pompey are the two I most want to come down. Pompey just because of their financial shenanigans and crying victim.

Preston

the shit smelling bastards from along the coast deserve to be relegated, I dont care for Scunthorpe or Preston. Scum & Sheff Utd away would be great days

Portsmouth: shit town, shit ground. Only decent pubs are well out of the way if you are going to Fratton Park.
Bristol City: mainly because the ground is miles away from the station and it's a nightmare getting back after the game.

Why do you think they are two of the best then? Please say something other than "they are close".

I wouldn't, I quite enjoy a day trip to these northern places (Merseyside excepted) - Sheffield being a particular favourite. And I want Palace to go down as well.

What he said innit

 

[Simster]

Correct.

Being objective about the final place, I'd be happy to see Middlesbrough go down, as they will definitely sort themselves out in time for next season, whereas I'd be confident of turning over Preston and Scunthorpe, and Sheffield United under Adams.

 

[GOM]

I wouldn't mind trips to Preston and Middlesboro, new grounds for me.

[CheeseRolls]

Middlesbrough please - Bernie Slavin Ayrsome Park 4-0 waiving white hankies. We don't have a great record against them over the years (including our record defeat I think)

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Whilst it would be fun to rub shoulders with both Portsmouth and Crystal Palace again (assuming we were to be promoted), I can't help but agree with Simon.

Palace
Pompey
A N Other

 

[natterjack]

From what I've seen, Preston and Scunthorpe are f***ed - leaving Palace and Sheff. Utd to fight it out for the other place. It'll be a tight call as both teams are shit, but I think Palace will avoid the drop (unfortunately)

 

[Napper]

If we go up then would be brilliant to have Pompey and Palace next year.

Would be a lovely cherry on top if Southampton and Bournemouth can come up with us.

What a league that would be
