I really enjoy the Championship but what things won’t you miss ?

I'll miss it every week, I'd rather be in it than the premier league if we could take a percentage of the money and sacrifice our place I'd be delighted!
Bad refs have nothing on the blatant cheating by VAR

I’d like to say all of the Saturday 3PM kick offs but we’ll probably get more of those next season.

But surely the draw of the Championship is promotion to the Premier League.

Winning the league or promotion is great and we have great days but being in the premier league brings me zero excitement.
What's our ceiling if we stay in it? To finish 14/15th?
Look at Everton and Wolves, bottom half every year and win nothing in the cups it gets boring eventually.

Some games feeling really low key and as if nobody's watching. Cardiff away being the one that comes to mind of our recent games

Why do we always have a hate figure/club in promotion battles?
In the last 13 years we’ve had Forest, Derby, BHA, Sheff Ux2, always DL and the neighbours and now it’s Chris Wilder. He’s been very complimentary the last couple of days and anything before that is for the benefit of his club not anti-Clarets.
Ah well, haters gotta hate

You are right, but he makes a rod for his own back.

Most fans only prefer the championship because our last few forays into it have been easy, with successful campaigns.
