And to be fair, it's ridiculous club their size is in 1st division. Just like it was ridiculous that we were there. And Sheffield Wednesday and Nottingham Forest more recently. Equally, I think it's ridiculous that clubs like Wigan and Fulham are in top flight.

Also extra happy that Milwall aren't up... at least yet.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

I like the top league to be full of big clubs with good support, whos local people actually care about them, so for that reason I'll be glad when Leeds are back up there. Teams like Wigan are a joke & playing against them is the football equivalent of vacuuming the carpet; something that requires doing, rather than something to look forward to. If Wigan were top of the Premier league it would still be more fun to play against Leeds or Newcastle.

I've been in Maine Road (Leeds) and CoMS (Newcastle couple of times) when we've played them in the past and atmosphere has been excellent. The away support doing their bit and in great voice + some decent banter between supporters. I've also been in Maine Road and CoMS when we've played likes of Fulham and Charlton and it has been absolute shite. Regardless of where those clubs have been in table at the time or where we've been.

I think that's been the case for most games between us & those clubs & also when they play each other. Who gives a shit when Wigan play Portsmouth?

I agree, though had to laugh at Grayson saying they're back where they belong, no argument from me though setting your standards a bit low eh? Also the fact that Norwich are having an open top bus/civic reception. It really isn't that big a deal Delia unless getting back to the Championship represents the height of your ambition?

Yeah, cause we were all calm and collected after Gillingham.

And at Blackburn.

Cardiff 1-0 Leicester

Thunderbolt of a freekick, however I just realised that if Cardiff get promoted it means Dave fucking Jones back in the top flight.

I wonder if Kelvin will stay with them or we'll call him back? Storming freekick which skimmed in off the post, gives Cardiff a hell of an advantage going into the second leg. Would definately prefer to see Blackpool or Forest through rather than any of these, and if I had to choose, it'd be Forest.

I think Forest will be the best equipped to win against Cardiff so I am hoping they can turn around the goal deficit on Tuesday.

In regards to Kelvin and all our academy lads out on loan, I think they should be given more of an option here if they want to stay with the clubs they are loaned to they should be allowed to...if those clubs want to pony up the cash that is.

Ha ha ha, Rangers just gave a penalty away against Motherwell, winning 3-2 at the mo!

Goal, 3-3. I wonder if Rangers are giving them that Europa place?
