Danny Cowley sacked by Huddersfield. Weird one, should have got the summer to rebuild.

Very harsh. Not sure who will replace him, but they clearly have bigger issues and there's nothing to suggest a new manager will improve their fortunes. Cowley's job at Lincoln was exceptional; could be a good appointment for a lower Championship club

Must be a lot more to it, clearly he is a good coach. Would be a good long term project for someone in League 1/Championship.

He's (Cassila) is an absolute liability and if they do not get a new keeper for next season they will be in trouble. The youngster they had who was good, Peacock-Farrel, is currently benchwarning at Burnley.

Not that I want Bowen to get sacked or leave, I wouldn't say no to Cowley. He had a tough job at Huddersfield. If Bournemouth go down, Howe will leave most likely as he can get another job In prem. Cowley would be a good fit there as they are very similar managers.

Snowflake Royal You could reasonably expect to predict most of the bottom six right now.

Rotherham, Coventry, Wycombe and whoever survives of Barnsley, Charlton, Luton and maybe Hull.

Birmingham probably won't be that far away either.

Then you've got a potential points deduction for Wednesday, maybe Villa.


Do we not have a possible points reduction aswell?

Looks pretty unlikely for the stadium sale.

FFP might be a different matter depending on our summer and the suspension of rules.


You mean the same FFP that got Man City banned for..... Oh wait.

Yes odd one that. They’ve done reasonably well. Sounds like some sort of argument over money/methods though

At least we almost certainly get a trip to Bournemouth next season. Can't stand them!

Why do you care so much about a random team who aren't even in our division? I like Bournemouth.

It's great to see! Shite club and their supporters are complete twats. I remember how cocky they were when they went up, how annoying their supporters were when they came to us near the end of the season when they went up. They thought they were some sort of elite club with some sort of divine right to go up. Hope they go bust.

Stuff of champions today from Leeds. To bounce back and destroy the very team that beat them in the play offs last season. You really need to hand it to them. They are a very good team.

When was the last time the bottom three all had a chance of staying up going in to the last game?

Intriguing when you throw in the Wigan and Sheffield situations....

So pleased we can watch it from further up the table

Sadly I can no longer agree due to who produced the quote you posted. I hate Leeds now.

So hull are down unless and extraordinary goal difference swing in there favour. My money is on Luton and Charlton beat the drop now if Wigan get there point deduction.
