upperwinngardensowl Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 We were garbage for half a season and we are two points off the playoffs, and even under Dross we were briefly 6th. its a very competitive league, but not a strong one this season.

bigash_swfc Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 You need to be a band of brothers. Completely selfless in performance and running. Everybody has to buy in to achieve what the top 3 are doing. Norwich, Sheff Utd and Leeds. We're starting to see the early signs of this under bruce and it's very positive. Evident to see that unity in the back 5, inc gk. Fletcher embodies eveerything needed to be top dog in this division. Got a feeling Lucas Joao maybe up for loan before the beginning of next season.

Mobley Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Of course it’s difficult otherwise we wouldn’t have been stuck in it for years!! We have Stoke West Brom and Swansea fresh down from the Prem doing nothing, Boro Hull , Villa etc all benefitting from their recent parachute payments, and not challenging. flipping Leeds with their massive fan base. All these clubs are bigger than Bournemouth, Burnley, Brighton, Watford etc. It's the way the club is run that gets you up not history or a name or necessarily the money. Easy to spunk away the parachute payments or any amount of money if you’re clueless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hullite Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Just remember the last time Brucey got us promoted (through the play offs v you) he walked before the season started as there was no money (plus our owners live on a different planet) he's not that hungry for prem status that he will work under any conditions I will be very surprised if you don't get one of the auto places next season that's obviously if you don't go up in may 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groundhopping Owl Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 The quality of the Championship as a leauge varies from year to year, but we've made it a lot more difficult for ourselves by not making fitness/stamina anywhere near enough of a priority over the last few years. I'd have thought it was obvious in a league where you play 46 games a season, possibly adding in another three if you're in the promotion mix but end up having to take the play-off route, but until Jos came in we consistently neglected it (not just down to Carlos' management but also to the players we recruited).

Mrmason69 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 It's very hard because there are so many bad teams. This year the top three are way ahead of the rest. Brom had a bad man3. The rest are rubbish by comparison. Hence the difficulty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
