Championship 2021-2022

It doesn’t even look like his previous role involved a lot of proficiency in data or anything like that (like, say, Michael Edwards). Very similar to Fulham and Tony Khan, but he had at least been working in sports analytics for his dad’s NFL team for the previous 7 years.

 

Ben Wilmot has added scrappy goals to his game now:

Reading have just blown a two goal lead against WRDC who appear to be minus WR today.

 

King Marco at it again. 7-0 away win.

Fulham having exactly the season we should have had, but we decided to hire 2 useless cunnies as manager instead.

 

Laugh….or cry…..or both?

 

Scott Parker’s coat is just wonderful. I hate Bournemouth a little less because of it.

 

I've been cheering on Luton (as not many do) but I have to say that Muff's cheating culture seems to have left with St Eddie and his sidekick. I still hate them cos of their fans, though.

Brilliant last-second winner for Luton!

 

Horrible scenes in Scumville.

 

Scummy scenes in Horribleville.

 

Scum celebrating like they have just got promoted not moved up to 13th place in The Championship. ..

 

Reminded me a little of Back Seat Pleat doing his dance at Maine Road in his nasty brown suit!

 

Another 5 goals and counting for king Marco I see.

I'd sacrifice 75% of the posters on here in a barbaric aztec blood ritual to have him back. Dead serious.

 

6 now. Make that 80%.

 

19 goals in 3 games. Glorious.

 

I'm coming round to RC's view that had Silva been in charge instead of Xisco the football would've been better. It was good to watch after the formation change but apart from Bristol City who were likely basically downing tools to get their manager sacked, we never really destroyed anyone. We wouldn't have been as free-scoring as we didn't have any good strikers but given Fulham scored six tonight without any goals or assists from Mitrovic it's at least possible we would've scored quite a bit more and while we wouldn't have set records for defence or clean sheets it would've been more entertaining overall.

Fulham are on course to get 124 goals and Mitrovic to get almost 50 if he plays the full 90 minutes of every remaining game this season - quite incredible.

 

3 games in a row with 6 or more goals.

Madness.

 

Has he seen there’s a vacancy at mahoosive club Everton ?

 

Derby on the verge of liquidation. Nightmare scenario.

 

Isn’t the issue the potential claims WW and Boro have, which are putting off potential owners not knowing if/what they might need to pay them both?

 

Thoroughly looking forward to being back in the championship next season. Yet again it’s proving to be the most competitive and entertaining league in the world.

 

Bournemouth continue to stumble, shame about Blackburn losing to Hull midweek.

I'd enjoy their situation more if it weren't for the fact that we look almost certain to be back in the Championship and playing them yet again.

 

Quite enjoyed watching QPR v Swansea tonight. Decent game, players played with pashun and commitment, fans on both sides had a highly entertaining game where both sets of players gave everything.

A throwback to simpler times.

 

Reckon Ismael is about to get sacked

 

He’s not really done it at WBA, but then again Barnsley couldn’t be any worse without him if they tried.

 

If that was the criticism/reaction to a 3-0 home win, I wouldn’t want to be him following their first home defeat of the season tonight against Preston. Fallen out with Sam Johnstone too who was excluded from the squad. I think his days would be numbered but he has a four year contract so would be due a lot of compensation and WBA fans think the club can’t afford it.

If I recall correctly Luke Dowling really wanted to get Wilder and then resigned/was fired when the owner decided to get Ismael instead. Seems an error to me (although I do think Ismael is a decent manager for the level - just not so suited to manage a team with higher expectations).
