[Perryccfc]

Delighted. Love Forest away.

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Luton and Barnsley survived. Amazing!

 

[Specs WT-R75]

What a crazy state that table was in with 5 minutes to go. Nothing decided (bar Leeds)!

 

[Specs WT-R75]

Cardiff v Swansea final. You heard it here first.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Both automatically promoted sides survive! We can take some comfort from that!

Barnsley 3rd bottom?

What am I missing chaps?

Wigan points deduction

 

[Specs WT-R75]

Wonder if we get any money from Barnsley staying up (Chaplin contract clause?)

 

[Specs WT-R75]

Barnsley 3rd bottom?

about 12 points for Wigan

 

[matesx]

about 12 points for Wigan

Why not reflect that on the table?

With an *

 

[Frostie]

Gotta feel for Wigan but what a final day.
Shame for the fans who can't attend too but most entertaining league in the world in my opinion.

 

[Happy_Martian]

Wigan points deds not guaranteed. We'll have to wait for the legals to clear before the final relegation place is resolved

 

[Evo1883]

Glad we're not in league 1 next year, toughest league for years

 

[Liquid Gold]

I fancy us to finish above Wycombe, Barnsley & Luton next season.

And Blues.....they’re shite

 

[Evo1883]

Luton lost just twice in 15 matches... Remarkable form

 

[Magwitch]

Wigan points deduction

That’s going to be interesting

You mean Sun'lan' might not get their expected 100 point season ?

 

[skybluegod]

It's not guaranteed, but it's 99% likely to happen, there is no real legal grounds to appeal, seems like a pot shot to me

 

[Evo1883]

Wigan, Sunderland, charlton, Hull City, Portsmouth, Oxford united, Peterborough, Ipswich Town, Doncaster, Fleetwood... Going to be rough up top in league 1 next year

 

[SomersetSB]

Think we’ll be mid table at least nothing to worry about from what I’ve seen tbh!!
In Robins we trust,Onwards and upwards PUSB!!

 

[Paxman II]

12 points deduction for Wigan. Subject to appeal but standard stuff.
Swansea needing a goal late on to overhaul Forest and got it.

 

[Evo1883]

You mean Sun'lan' might not get their expected 100 point season ?

They will be lucky to get top 6 tbh

 

[Evo1883]

I think a couple of clubs are in decline in the championship that could benefit us... Birmingham, Huddersfield and Stoke spring to mind, the premiership took its toll on the latter two...

This isn't a cut and dried badly run club issue that caused the administration. There are a lot of allegations of wrongdoing behind the scenes which the EFL will have to consider. The new owner who put them in admin 10 days after taking control is apparently going to talk to the EFL as part of the discussion. That conversation could be a decider.

 

[Ian1779]

Have they decided about the potential points deductions for the other teams? (Sheff W, Derby and possibly Birmingham IIRC)

 

[Blind-Faith]

Luton lost just twice in 15 matches... Remarkable form

All hail Martin Cranie!

Blues got away without a deduction, the other two are ongoing

Stoke are 7th in the league since their new manager came in.

 

[Magwitch]

Stoke are 7th in the league since their new manager came in.

And Luton have only lost twice in 15 to survive, since their manager came in...the one Stoke got rid of...football really is a funny old game.

 

[Evo1883]

Stoke are 7th in the league since their new manager came in.

True although has zero relevance for next season, still feel their wage bill will need to come down and that is the real test

Reports suggest their wage average is 26000

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Sooner have Barnsley in our division than Wigan. Also think Charlton would have been able to recruit from other London clubs to strengthen, so glad they have gone (although sorry for their fans) Could do with as much help / points deductions etc, as possible for our first venture into the unknown for a while. Would be nice to establish ourselves until/whilst we get the ground issue resolved.

Nathan Jones is one of those managers that just seems to fit a club. He's worked wonders with Luton.

Cardiff v Swansea final. You heard it here first.

Nah. Brentford vs Fulham final
