That’s how I would have been until recently ,, now I watch far more championship football than prem ( if not watching derby ) and can honestly tell you the reason for that is well beyond it being the league derby are in , i love to watch decent boxing and can tell you it’s not all about the supposed big names , there are real cracking fights at all levels , for me NOW the championship is the best league in the world ,it’s everything and more about English football that snared me as a kid and kept me watching for years I would want promotion for the financial boost but would miss the championship pretty quickly I reckon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintRam Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 I don't watch much non-Derby football in general any more, so I can't really say. But it HAS to be the most competitive one surely? I can't imagine there's another league with a smaller gap between the best and worst teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G STAR RAM Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 How can anyone even possibly pretend to know the answer to such a question? There are numerous leagues out there which I'm sure people have never watched. I think the question really is, is the Championship the best league they show on Sky?

Marriot Ram99 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 For unpredictability yes , for quality obviously nowhere near , I'd rather be in the Prem for the quality of football you get to see ,but it is better to be in the championship than get you arse handed to you on a plate like we did last time . Another good thing about the championship is the ticket prices are more affordable than in the prem, I really hope Mel doesn't do us dirty if we do go up and charge us £40 for a cheap seat against Watford or Everton.

Comrade 86 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Certainly one of the most competitive. There are clearly better quality leagues but I'm not sure that always equates to enhanced entertainment value. I remember Football Italia from back in the day and whilst the quality was there, it was most often less watchable than slow-drying paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
