Who would cut it in the Championship?

I agree Painter may not be strong going forward but he is as solid as any other player in the back 4. Anyway with a player like Lualua or Bennett bombing on in front of him I don't think that his offensive ability really matters too much. That's just my opinion anyway

The difference between say, the bottom 14 of the Championship and the top 12 of League One is sufficiently small to be attributable largely to chance.
Watch the performance of relegated and promoted teams over the years -- BHA itself is a good example -- there's a lot of churning.
Same with the bottom ten or so of League One and the top dozen of League Two.

Likewise. I'm surprised about the doubts here regarding Painter. He's been so dependable.

Of yesterdays team
Yes to

Ankergren
Greer
E Abd
Painter
Bennett
Sparrow
Murray
Calderon who was suspended.

Possibly

Dicker
Barnes as a sub with odd games
Brezovan
Bridcutt

No

Holroyd
Kishishev
Elphick
Smith
Sandaza
Tarricco because he is too old not his ability or know how.

Those not in the squad would obviously fit into the no catergory.

What about Bridcutt? I think he could do a job.

Edit: That's better
