If stoke lose to derby then it's only hull, Preston and Luton who need to win(or draw in some cases) to send them down. Not as unlikely set of results as some have said on here.

Pompey good at home though so hull prob will go down but im hoping it's Luton

I have mixed feelings about Cardiff’s demise. On the one hand I’m happy as I can be smug around the many local people who have taken the piss out of me over the years - I get bombarded with messages when we’ve lost to them, which feels like every season - and on the other hand I’m losing the localist of away fixtures.

Hmmmmm….goodbye Cardiff.

I don’t get the impression they’ll bounce right back

we are normally rubbish against welsh teams so 1 less isn't a bad thing

Sadly we're gonna have wrexham

 

[covcity4life]

Cardiff always seemed to be a good team while cov were shit in championship. I don't mind them going down.

 

[Chris1987]

I don’t think Wilder is the type to throw a game.

He is the type to fuck it up though.

Not my favourite away day by a long stretch, so happy they've gone.

Neither do their fans. I think their owner, Vincent Tan, also owns a Dutch club (or somewhere) and they were relegated too.
He’s not well liked.

I remember a Cardiff fan angrily moaning at me that that they’d changed from playing in blue to red. He said he’d stopped going to games because of this.
I was like “yeah, well if it makes you feel any better we’re shit, got no money and are being forced to play our home games in Northampton which is a 45 minute drive from Cov”.
He just looked at me and said “yeah but we’re having to play in Red! We’re the bluebirds”!

That man was/is an arse.

They weren’t complaining when Tan’s money got them into the top flight and let them nab both Gunnarsson and Ben Turner off us.

Tbf we would be fuming if owner changed us from sky blues wouldn't we?

Yeah but I think at the time if I’d had the choice…

Yep, I agree. They’ve also got a top six wage bill.

He can Farke right off!!!

Pair of wankers

‘I thanked him for tanking his team’s form off a cliff to gift wrap promotion for my gallant underdogs’

 

[Tommo1993]

Don’t like Farke at all. Always get the vibe from him that he shouldn’t be managing at this level.

 

[shepardo01]

Not sure how this is done.....

 

[shepardo01]

Interesting.....

 

[TomRad85]

Interesting.....

I saw this and it's either a complete lie to get him more BJs from dopey Brummies or they are up to some real shady shit. Time will tell which one.

Same.

I also recall his Norwich sides getting relegated without a fight.

 

[TomRad85]

Bellingham in on name only but fair enough otherwise. The 2 Norwich lads done enough for a move away if they are lucky.

They and Wrexham will be insufferable.

 

[no_loyalty]

Interesting.....

Blues fans already saying they are going to do an Ipswich next season and get another promotion.

 

[TomRad85]

They and Wrexham will be insufferable.

I find these worse than Wrexham. At least that is interesting if you're into that sort of thing. Blues are a Championship sized club owned by a yank hedge fund with a bunch of dribblers for fans.
What's the story they are trying create there?

 

[clint van damme]

Not sure how this is done.....

Given Hamers inclusion it might be calories consumed.

In all seriousness though, I'm not over convinced by Burrows and wouldn't swap Hamer for Rudi.

£150 matchday tickets!

Whatever helps give them a smile while the bin bags pile up I suppose.

Well genuinely they only bought it because of Peaky Blinders

When you think that club can't get any cringier they find a way to crank it up a notch.

I’d say they should fold and merge with Villa but the Villa fans don’t deserve that

They should just be forced to fold as its not fair to make other teams travel to that shit hole full of absolute mutants.
