Who do you want to come up

Post by cricketfieldclarets » Sun Dec 22, 2019 9:00 pm

West Brom look all but guaranteed.

But still remain hopeful Leeds will bottle it. Would love to see Wednesday back up here. A good away day, a proper ground and outside playing us would be great to see them and the sheffield derby back in the premier league. Remember some fiery games between them back in the 90s and a couple of big cup games.

Via the play offs would love to see Millwall go up. Unlikely as it may be. Failing that Brentfords a good away day and would be nice to see them make it. Top fans when we went down there and have done it properly.

Good away day. Would have next to nothing to spend so we should finish above them. And despite all the bad press (much warrented) they have some decent, long suffering fans.

Anyone but Leeds and Rovers they'd both be unbearable,WBA look bankers,so to join them automatically Fulham,through the play-off lottery i fancy Bristol City to emerge.

In terms of likely relegation candidates that trio would suit us down to the ground.

Good away day :D some decent long suffering fans :D, well yes, they probably have a few. I'm obviously a little older than yourself and still havn't forgiven them for me getting a punch when they attacked our Viscount central coach the last game of the 1977 season :x

There is always an unfancied side that has gone up in the past 7-8 years that includes us with our first SD promotion

Like to see Sheff Wed or Forest go up rather than Fulham or WBA who have experienced the PL recently-though Albion for me look certs. They are also two good grounds and easy for me to attend

Let's not lose hope for Leeds bottling it. I would make it all the better given they position they're now in. From the financial stats on Championship teams, it looks as though Preston are fairly well run (or at least didn't spent all their budget on wages last season), so getting up could establish them somewhat (go down and come back stronger). Millwall or Brentford would be good for me, and it would be nice if Fulham pipped Leeds.

Sheffield Wednesday for me, along with WBA who seem certs. Hope Leeds mess up again, just for the fun. If they’re promoted they’ll spend.

PSG owner or someone who is involved with the money are buying Leeds if they go up. Meaning they'll have a bottomless pit of cash.

Love to see Leeds come up. Massive club. Great fans. A credit to football. WBA look good and I'd like either Hull (6 points for us) or Wednesday (for the Sheffield derby).

I'd love Leeds to come up though, they belong in the PL.





Okay men, here's the drill, when the attack comes keep your heads down and wait till the onslaught is over.

Sheffield Wednesday definitely would be good. Be nice for Brentford too, new ground and deserve it after finding and selling so many players.

Although I'm not as fussed as everyone else about Leeds. You can't tell me playing them would be a less enticing fixture than if we had Fulham.

Agree with this actually. I have a laugh on here about Leeds because I understand they are unpopular but I don't really have a problem with them any more, and as you say it is a huge game for us but also one we can win. It's also a good away day because it is basically a derby match. What's not to like?

Leeds, Preston and Wednesday for me although I don't think anybody is stopping WBA this season. I think the top 2 then take your pick. Hopefully the bar stewards have peaked too early and had their good run with a lot of the race still to go...

WBA will go up they have done the yoyo so many times and know how to get out of that league
Brentford will go up in second place they played WBA off the park on Saturday and the noise coming from the hawthorns was that Brentford was the best team they had played this season
Preston will make the playoffs and with previous experience in playoffs will beat Leeds in the final

Be happy to see Preston do it (after almost as many false dawns as Leeds in the PL era!) but definitely don't want Leeds. Bristol City would be a change!

I was at that one. In with the Millwall rabble during the game and we kept very, very quiet. Not that there was much to shout about as we lost 2-0. Lots of fighting between police and Millwall fans. Peter Noble had been brilliant that season and he was the only reason we made the long journey down for a meaningless end of season game.

Never Bl*ckburn; Never PNE(I want neither to experience the Top Flight again).
Same for Leeds, bu I reckon Bielsa will ascend his learning curve this season.
WBA,
Sheff Weds
Millwall/Brentford
That’s who I’d like to see come up.

With West Brom's squad/goal power and manager, current position and points total they should be nailed-on for one of the automatic places.

No problem with Preston, would be an enjoyable away day and can't see them being any stronger in PL terms than Huddersfield were. Likewise Wednesday for similar reasons.

Not Leeds.
