Carnero Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Never mind, as fans they'd likely have had a far more enjoyable season in the Championship next season if they'd have gone down. Scraping 4th bottom every season at less than a point per game isn't my idea of fun. Crewton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chellaston Ram Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Looking at the teams above them, I can’t see them finishing any higher next season so next season will be their real test, none of the promoted teams could be any worse than current load of crap . I think even our 11 point team could have got more points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mucker1884 Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 I'd like to show how magnanimous I am, by offering my hearty congratulations to our neighbours for a second consecutive successful outcome in their bid to maintain top flight membership, and local superiority. But unfortunately, I'm not renowned for being magnanimous, and I'm too old to change now, so feck 'em!

Alty_Ram Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 That always seemed the most likely outcome to be fair, Forest just a bit better than the relegation fodder down there. For all the "Plucky, spirited Luton" narrative of recent months the reality is that they went down with a bit of a whimper in the end and the bottom three will all finish below 30 points even if they win next week. Luton lost 4 and drew 1 of the last 5. Burnley had 1 win in the last 6 games. They simply didn't put any real pressure on Forest at the sharp end of the season. Sheff Utd were just rubbish and are on a run of 6 straight defeats and setting some records. RadioactiveWaste and Rammy03 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 (edited) Congratulations to Forest. The worst ever team to stay up. I think we all said at the start of the season that none of the promoted clubs look capable of reaching 30 points. You fear with Leicester’s potential points deduction, Ipswich just lacking any real quality and either West Brom or Norwich going up, next season could be similar. You kind of hate to say it, you’d need Leeds to go up and spend. The PL is in danger of not just having a permanent top 6-7, but also having a situation where promoted clubs can’t make a fist of it. The so-called most exciting, competitive league in the world is in danger of being uncompetitive and predictable.

Comrade 86 Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Given how colossally shyte the Gupturds are this year, I'm astounded that Luton and Burnley have somehow conspired to be even shyter 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think all the three teams are going to need to invest pretty heavily to have a chance Bout thats the same with every year. I didn’t realise how big the gap actually was.

Especially when you only get 4 points deducted for it. Although it didn’t stop another wave of tears from your fans and a sanctimonious statement from your club who a week before had voted for less funding for EFL clubs.

Actually, in reality, I don’t think there was a real protest from our fans. Most, including myself, concluded we actually got off pretty lightly. There certainly wasn’t the waves of protests like another midlands team who got docked points for being creative with the rules.

And just think, it could be the two points they got back for cooperating that saves them. Which I’m still annoyed that they didn’t get taken off them for a pointless appeal.
