RobbieOwler Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 I think what happens today and the next couple of games for Swansea will give us a little bit of a vision on how we would have performed if we had got promoted. The Carlos love-in by the media seems to have died down, they're in bad form and have a winnable game today before taking on two relegation rivals. As a Wednesday fan I'm still none the wiser what to expect from him (apart from going from a charming attacking based manager to a grump who plays negative football). I believe we would have stayed up and performed far better than Hull and probably Huddersfield, who I'm expecting to go back down, but this metaphorical situation relies on Carlos' approach with swansea, I think we would have been in a similar situation if we were promoted.

MysticOwl Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 (edited) Swansea's form is not bad, it is just that they have lost to far superior teams in recent matches (Man United, Man City and Chelsea). Edited May 5, 2018 by CF83OWL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j17tjp Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 I had this conversation yesterday at work. “How would we have faired in the prem?” i think we would’ve struggled, I’m thinking we’d be like Brighton not as bad as Hull / Hudders but not as good as a Burnley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiJ Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Tbh, I think we'd have been relegated had we gone up in 2016. In saying that, I believe we'd have come back strong in the Championship and got ourselves back up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daleblue Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 If we got promoted to the Premier, I would buy everyone on here a pint before the last match. Disclaimer. This offer is only open for the Season 2017 - 2018 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoop Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Without a proper pre season we’d have had our arses handed to us on a plate by all 19 clubs in the premier league.

flo Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Top 4 if we kept Nuhiu and Forestieri fit imho. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Chow Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 I actually disagree. You saw our fitness drop eventually, imagine playing against teams that are better prepared a league high against a team like us that was unfit compared to the opposition. If we beat hull and got promoted I think we would have come straight back down under cc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In saying that, I believe we'd have come back strong in the Championship and got ourselves back up again. Exactly, and it wouldn’t have bothered me one bit either. The money would set us up nicely for the foreseeable future providing we didn’t buy a load of ageing journeyman on massive wages for long deals that wouldn’t shift if we didn’t go straight back up.

Bluesteel Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 We’d have gone up riddled with injuries because we had players playing through them for so long. Wouldve been very frustrating as it would’ve likely cost us but at least we’d be a lot richer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lincs Owl Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 If we got promoted to the Premiership, we would be playing in SCOTLAND. FOR THE UMPTEENTH TIME, ITS THE PREMIER LEAGUE IN ENGLAND. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
