Reading are looking likely to join them as well.

Plus all is not rosy at Hull.

Championship is a bit of basket case all round as clubs gamble on making it to 'the promised land'.


Re: Hull, didn’t the Allam’s effectively save them from a similar predicament before getting them back into the Prem and proceeding to pìss their entire fan base off through their bizarre desire to change the club’s name to Hull Tigers?

Absolutely baffling that they would sink so much money into the club and then allow it just to unravel all over again.

There was the issue with ticket price increases and a whole raft of other stuff.

Queued up for some trainers last summer at size? In Hull. Spent much of the night talking with Hull fans; rivalries to one side, it was just fans of two clubs with horrific owners and in dire states…

So if Derby go to the wall, then 3 go up from the NL to balance the numbers in the EFL. Adios Derby and a better position for Town to be in, come the end of the season


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

More likely one less team relegated to the NL


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

We all know this would be the case, the EFL ‘protecting its members’…

Are you saying you queued all night for trainers?

Someone will step in and buy them. They won’t need to buy the ground, they will rent it. HMRC will do a deal to be paid back over a number of years. The wage bill will be slashed by the administrators to allow them to operate. Rooney, who is on £90k per week will be one of the first to go.

They will most likely end up in L1 but will survive and the whole cycle will begin again.

How can a club at that level pay their manager £4.7m a year?

Crazy isn’t it. But then Mel Morris is a multi millionaire. He claims to have lost £200 million on the club. I think some of the players are on silly money too.
