Would any one have seen the top 10 as it currently stands, at the beginning of the season?
Obvs be a lot of change, but some teams you'd never think of are performing well

Good start for Boro, I think there’s a consensus they should have been making the playoffs last 2 years.
Leicester, Cov, WBA, Bristol no real suprise and Brum have spent a small fortune.
Awful start for Ipswich and Sheff - 10 points off automatic promotion & open dissent on the terraces is a disaster.

As much as our board gets abuse, it shows just how well they’ve done to secure an immediate return on two occasions. It’s a tough old division is the Champ.

As long as those idiots down the motorway stay at the wrong end of it, I'm happy.

Both Sheffields and Ipswich relegated would be funny. It won't happen, though.

I've been backing Stoke to do well for years. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day!

How dare you!
Advocating for Rovers to survive, wash your mouth out.

Including SDs it’s our last 3 seasons in the Championship.

Whoops! Good point. I'd totally forgotten about the blue and white lowlife.

I'd take Wrexham, Birmingham and Rovers.

A far more enjoyable league. Let's hope they keep VAR out of it for as long as possible.

Good selection. Two big spenders and the enemy.

And yet we seem to have no issue with Burnley spending over £100 million in one season compared to half that by Birmingham over two seasons. Different league admittedly but a tad hypocritical don’t you think?

How's he being hypocritical there ? He's literally stating fact and who he wants to go down

As Vegas says below. Bham and Wxm spent a hell of a lot for third tier sides.

What wonderful times we’ve had in the Championship ,far better than the odd morsel we get in the Premier league ,we’re now treated like the thing that someone stepped in rather than hated and secretly admired by all and sundry in the Championship,how weird a place it is where we all strive to get away from but love every minute of it when we’re there .

Ipswich finding out that teams sit back with everyone behind the ball when they play them. Struggling to break them down and being hit on the break.
