2013-14 Championship Season Topic

First topic message reminder :

Who will manage to go up with the mighty Cherries?

Looking at those goals, no complaints. 

Superb goalkeeping by Paddy Kenny. 3 world class saves there.

Think Brighton could do with 2 more players at least.

For me you could do with a striker nick I know mackail smith is out injured but today you had great build up and just lacked a finish.

Luke murphy was quality today best player on pitch, was all over place and his passing really added something, looks to be a great buy.

I think well be a pretty decent team when we get diouf Austin and byram in, could do with another cb and a winger and I think we could just about make playoffs

QPR will go up if they can continue to keep hold of their better players, but I could still see quite a few leave. Austin is a good signing, but Henry and Dunne are pretty poor.

Quite why they spent £1m on Karl Henry is beyond me, he's rubbish

I'll just re-iterate for a lot of the buffoons tweeting me. I WILL NOT BE PLAYING IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP NEXT SEASON. Hope that clears that up!

Ah so he thinks QPR will go down.

Thats nice.

Some bad news to report on the Leeds v Brighton game. Apparently a lot of homophobic abuse was taken to extreme measures after the match, not quite sure what that is. Also apparently there was an unprovoked assault at Peterbrough, by some Leeds fans on Brighton fans.

It's a shame for Leeds united, as a lot of the 33,000 fans are superb, but there's always the idiots who let you all down.

Apparently one chant of: "We can see you holding hands." (Homophobic abuse?)

Which was countered with a chant of: "You're too ugly to be gay." (Hetrophobic abuse?)

I have no complaints about that, but after the match there was chants, i don't wish to put on the website because i have acknowledgement it may offend.

Derby vs Blackburn on Sky Sports 1 Now

Chatbox is open.

Derby 1-0 Blackburn.

Johnny Russel scored a pen.

When the ball hits a players hand its handball, shame the ref yesterday couldn't understand that.

Changed your tune Nick?  


Will Hughes looks a quality talent

After watching the highlights on Seaguls Player (My mate has given me his details, means i don't have to pay  ) my opinion of the goal has changed.

I think both sides will be in mid table this season, they both have standard squads. Blackburn looked poor in the first half though.

Turning into a good game

Blackburn hit the post

Derby had a goal disallowed for offside. Blackburn starting to come alive.

Lomas probably isnt a legend but yeah, Wall have been booing Lomas in pre-season cos of his allegiance with us. 

Derby look very tidy, I like a lot of their play. Blackburn have two deadly strikers on though

Leon Best is class. Blackburn do have the strikers, but there build up play is horrific. 

Great finish by Leon Best.

Simply the best

Blackburn saved the best to last.

Only the Best will do

Basically last season played out over the space of 90mins for the Boro on Saturday. Awesome first half, nice link up play, plenty of technical ability. Leicester change it up, squeeze the midfield have no plan B and end up going route 1.
Leicester get on top, 2 really nice goals and we fall away again as usual. Need some new faces or itll be a long hard season for us as the Riverside!

McClean signs for Wigan, who are starting to form a formidable side providing they hold onto their young uns.

Didn't get any better last night CelticGarbutt...

Must admit the thought of Lichaj-Wilson-Hobbs-Cohen makes me a bit wet

I see the beacon of all that is good with football Tom Ince, has been banned for two games for inappropriate gestures towards match officials.

But I'm sure it's Zaha's who's attitude stinks more...

No coverage again on the BBC today fellas due to the athletics.

However if you pop over to channel 301 or the red button we have Big Fun Time.

Jesus indeed wept.

#nffc team at Blackburn Darlow, Lichaj, Cohen, Hobbs, Wilson, Guedioura, Majewski, Lansbury, Reid, Paterson, Henderson

Fancy Yeovil, Derby and Barnsley for wins today

Fair they wouldn't surprise me

expecting Watford to turn over Bournemouth pretty comfortably, with Ipswich beating Millwall and Middlesborough beating Charlton.

Watched Yeovil-Brum first half, how on earth Yeovil ain't leading I'll never know

Everything but score

Really should of took my own advice

Watford 6-1 Bournemouth
Ipswich 3-0 Millwall
Charlton 0-1 Middlesborough

Troy Deeney gives Bournemouth a proper welcome to the Championship.

Hard luck day for Barnsley, stoppage time own goal from a long throw

Harsh on Bournemouth, held their own for a while. Scoreline flatters Watford more than a bit.

Was at the ipswich-millwall game, lucky to win 3-0, we will not challenge the top teams by playing hoof ball. Millwall could struggle this season.

Bring on League One 2014/15.

Oh dear  

Could have been 3-1 up at HT

Second half we where pub standard

Deserved what we got

Anyone else notice that the worse Bournemouth do the better Cherries spells......

He'll morph into William Shakespeare by the end of the season then.

Not if the Seattle Seahawks balance it out with a good season.

WHEN THE Frak DID KONCHESKY GET HAIR?!

Were AFC bournemouth, we win when we want !

Owen Coyle's doing a good job of turning one of the better passing teams in the land into a team of hoofball and whinging.

If he can't get them at least Automatics this year, with the undoubted quality they have in that squad, then he should be sacked.

Wigans reserves played better football in the cup last year

WE WIN WHEN WE WANT!
WE WIN WHEN WEEEE WANTTTTT

WERE BRIGHTON & HOVE ALBION WE WIN WHEN WE WANT!!!!

Wigan are currently 2-0 down at home against Doncaster. If they lose a couple more players in this window then they could very well struggle.

What happened to Owen Coyle's career? Such promise, it's all gone Pete Tong.

Pretty ordinary manager, installed his brand off hoof already

I know Azzy. Big things were expected of him.

Haven't seen any of Wigan (bar the Community Shield) but apparently they're not the footballing team we once knew.

If Owen Coyle doesn't win promotion with this Wigan Squad, that will be more than embarrassing. That said things are looking good for Doncaster.

Well wigan managed to scrape a draw. A point gained I suppose given the circumstances.

Playing Holty on his own up front against Doncaster.

Pretty sure Coyle doesn't know what he's doing

Wigan had the midfield to run rings round most of division. So they hire Coyle, sign Holt and bypass it completely.

Some serious brainfarts at Wigan

You should have your own newspaper column.

Most hacks would have gone around 1750 houses whilst picking up a decent wedge to explain it just how you did in one sentence.

You got my vote.

Doesn't it remind you of CF managing Swansea in the Realistic Prem league
