Who would you like to see promoted from the Championship?

There ARE other teams(we'd have no-one to play otherwise) and here's where all-comers can discuss the wider world of football......

Who would you like to see promoted from the Championship?

QPR look like a given (subject to a potential point deduction)
So along with them its Norwich and Notts Forest for me. I'm hoping Leeds and the teams on the wrong side of Offa's Dyke don't make it

In ground completion mode - there are two new ones in S Wales that I need to add... :wink:

Norwich. Only because one of my neighbours is a Canary fan.

I think the current top three will make it through.
Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I assure you, it's much more serious that that.

Not Leeds.. I'm not sure I can handle the "We're a massive club, back wehere we belong. Look at all our fans" bollocks that gets spouted everytime they play a Prem team in a cup competition
"I've got the ball now. It's a bit worn, but I've got it"

Indeed. Add in plenty of "thank god we've got a proper club back in the top flight etc" bollox, with a liberal sprinkling of "these are clubs you want to be playing every week, like Sheff Wednesday, Notts Forest etc zzzz"
You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

... and Leeds. Yes sir.

I can't even contemplate the Celtic media fest if either, let alone both, the Welsh clubs got up there. Time to finally dig up the "Croeso yr Gymru" sign near me and replant it a couple of miles further south.

Leeds ?!?! Give is a breal SJMc, keep them out.
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

Definitely not Leeds, as others have said, I just could not put up with all the 'big club' crap they'll come out with.

The only way I would like them is if they signed Alan Smith and were guaranteed relegation. At the Reebok.

A bloke I work with says QPR is his favourite awayday and Loftus Road his favourite ground for atmosphere in the away end. I've never been, is it as good as this deluded Citeh fan makes out?

Loftus Road is one of the sh*ttest away sections. No beer, a sh*tty little area that reminds me of the old tuck shop at Thornleigh and barely room to move with the upper tier protruding above your head making it a very claustrophobic experience.

Not for me, thanks.

You had tuckshops at Thornleigh?! I always knew you lot were posh over that end of town what with your brown uniforms and your big bus station.

We had gravel for an all weather pitch and a permanent rain cloud over our school!
