[Football] The Championship 2023/24

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

i read that Leeds will finish as the third placed team with the highest points total in history if they don't get automatic today. They're currently joint top of that stat league wth 90(our 89 from 15/16 is 2nd) because they're losing to southampton. That gives southampton 87 points...that's got to be the highest fourth placed total hasn't it?

I think West Brom play really nice football. They could be a play off surprise.

Of the four likely contenders, I want Norwich to go up purely because it's the only one I've not been to.

If I'm being honest, I barely watch football on television so the quality of other teams football doesn't really bother me.

Although I found it amusing when for a few years one of Norwich or Fulham would invariably get promoted, all the pundits would shake themselves silly about the wonderful football that they were playing, and it'd take until about February for them to register that they only had about 14 points and were certain to go down.

Leeds fans chanting:

"We're the famous Leeds United and we're going to Wembley"

Norwich City seem to be easing off now. I think Blackburn could be in trouble.

Ipswich doing a professional job and getting it done with ease

 

[GT49er]

As Blackburn and Plymouth are now winning or drawing we are truly f***ed!!!!

I am about to drown my sorrows on my third beer.

Blackburn winning 0-0 at half time

Edit: They are actually winning now.

I wonder what strange banner the Ipswich will bring to the Amex next season?

[TomandJerry]

Norwich with no shots on or off target, they haven't even tried

 

[TomandJerry]

Blackburn score !!

 

[oldboyroy]

Oh dear Birmingham

Oh dear Birmingham

It’s their own fault no sympathy sacked a manager when comfortable in the top six.

I take it you didn’t read the bit “ or drawing”. But do carry on
