Watching Norwich drawing with Massive on Sky, it reminds me of our QPR/Wolves/Wigan wins two years ago.

Forgetting the obsession with PL broadcasting income, there really is football life away from trying to nick a PL win every month or so, or getting rather excited because Eden Hazard of all people is in town.

We may stay up, but if we don’t, it’s not the end of football life as we know it.

Championship life for the Albion, was games like away to QPR and Brentford, prior to promotion.
Cracking games and at atmosphere, together with less anxt.

The Mega-Million-Annual-Loss League is a ticket to disaster.

Let's just stay up, Hughton.

I don't remember it being too exciting one particular season in the championship :moo:

Definitely, loads of mundane trips, setbacks. An unpopular NSC view, but I was often bored by the Poyet/Garcia brand of football at the Amex.

But with a good squad and manager, a real chance of getting three points in any of the 46 fixtures.

By contrast in the PL, we (but not you, I’ve noticed! :smile:), see up and coming games at Stamford Bridge or Spuds as a loss before it’s happened, looking ahead to the next potential points a few weeks down the line. It’s a funny old division.

Lol...I'm not always that positive....its just that 50 odd years of watching them has taught me to try (and not always succeed) the here and now.

PS a slight correction

Watching Norwich v Massive we would comfortably loose to these far too rapid for our midfield.
