You deserved to go up - worthy champions - we scraped into the play-offs and barged our way into the Championship. Our mission is to stay up - I'd put money on your lot going up to the Premier League - you looked good last season from what I saw.
Let's hope it's a cracker - I can't wait for the 'Barcodes' (NUFC) to come to our place too!
We could go up to the Premier League, but the few years we were in the Championship before being relegated to League One we didn't seem to do that well, finishing in the bottom half in all 4 seasons. There's also some other teams that could very well go up like Newcastle, Reading, West Brom and Middlesbrough.
I'd like to see Scunthorpe stay up, I always like to see the underdogs do well.
Speaking of painful demises...italy got stuffed by egypt last night 1-0.... well deserved by the egyptians,not the most technically skillful team but played with a lot of heart and courage which the italians didn't.....reminded me of us against italy in the giants stadium in '94.....
yeah Franzoni i've been watching the Confederations Cup and so far it's been pretty great...i love watching the Italians lose...Egypts keeper was clearly Man-of-the-Match...
Spain vs. South Africa sat. and Brazil vs. Italy sunday...good lineup...
