A shame to see Leeds still top of the Championship despite losing Georginio, Gray and Summerville over the summer.

Again quite possible that the three relegated sides could be promoted back.

Worrying signs of the gulf between the PL and Championship continuing to grow. Thank god we got promoted when we did and are on the right side of the divide.

Well, certainly not Luton! And I have serious doubts about Burnley's prospects under Scott Parker, I reckon they finish in a playoff place best case scenario. Between Sunderland's performances and Boro's form at the moment the race for the top six could end up being extremely competitive.

It seems you need consent. Hull City's owner tried to change their name to Hull Tigers a few years back, but was refused permission:

Leyton Orient have been Clapham Orient, then Leyton Orient, then Orient, then back to Leyton Orient and about the time of the London Olympics Barry Hearne wanted to change their name again to London Orient.

Ah true I'm grouping Leeds in there, but they were the previous season.

As long as they bring our 6 points with them, I have no problems with Leeds returning.

This is always a benefit. Between Wet Sham, the Wolfs and Red Bull Corp. presents Leeds Sportsballclub, we always manage to pick up a decent points haul.
