Championship is just one league where possibly one of 20 teams could win it at the start of the season, EPL is two different leagues

The referee not having to pick up the match ball from a stupid podium when the teams come out.
My passing interest in the PL used to be hoping at least one 'big' club would get humiliated by a smaller club each week.
Now I find myself in the position of wanting the 'big' clubs to stuff everybody bar us by as many goals to nil as possible each week. That takes some getting used to.

A different kind of pasty
The possibility of actually winning something at the end of the season, as opposed to setting the expectation level at "being not as shit as three other clubs"

Yeah..and my mate misheard and went ballistic. Thought they were singing "to the Championship"
Exactly this. Hopefully, in a couple of seasons, we can aspire to an expectation of mid-table mediocrity.

The midweek games, with out a doubt.
Evening matches have always been my favourite.
The championship is absolutely rammed with Tuesday night fixtures.
Looking forward to Stoke and Palace.

Always missed mid week games anyway 
We seem to do better when we don't play at 3pm on Saturday.

The "used to be" comment (for away games) "Is it Pay on the Gate"? ........... Doubt that will ever be heard again for the PL
