So that is our number 1 and number 2 goalkeeper injured.

Fun times.

One comes back to full fitness, another goes.

Freak injury this one.

I mean, changing your logos? Sure, but this is just straight plagiarism

I know its to early to say but who do we think will get the automatic promotion spots?

At the start of the season i was confident we'd get automatic promotion, arrogantly so but I just thought our team is to strong.

I've now completely changed my mind and don't think we will even go up.

So for automatic, who do we all think will be the 2?

West Ham will surely win the league? I'll be surprised if they don't, so who's the team that goes with them?

The 5 main candidates are surely:

Swansea, early strog start and currently sitting pretty, can imagine them spending in Jan if they are still in contention.

Boro, arguably many peoples favourites and do look like a team that will be roughly there come end of Season.

Birmingham for me the surprise contenders as I didn't think they'd be as good as this, annoyingly I'd say the best team in league at the min and again will spend in Jan if in contention

Southampton, even with a point deduction I can see them been in the top 4, could they prove the haters wrong and get autos, what an achievement this would be and its not impossible.

Or are you a delusional moron like me and think the mighty wolves can do it, for me on paper we should but I don't think we have the right manager and don't play the right style. But if fer lopez stays fit who knows what may happen hes insane.

For me and maybe I'm been blinded by current form I think it will be

Champion - West ham

Runners up - Birmingham

Play off winners - Boro

Sorry Swansea I know im doing you a bit dirty as you're top but that's just my honest opinion

Hello Championship fans! I'm a football fan from the US and I'm currently running for charity for England's 92 professional clubs. I'm training for a half-marathon 40 days from Saturday and on 33 of those days, I’m virtually visiting the stadiums of all 92 clubs in England’s top four football leagues by running for the length of time it takes to drive from one football ground to the next. Meanwhile, I'm raising money through my GoFundMe to donate to a charity from each of the top four leagues.

For each day of running, I’m making a short video where I discuss the clubs and highlight their official charities. You can pick a club from each of the four leagues until the half-marathon, and at the end, the charity of the club with the most votes in each league will receive 25% of the fundraising total.

Please consider donating and/or sharing this with others! All support is greatly appreciated! Cheers!

Week 11 is in the books; let's have a look at the table, shall we?

Just for fun, feedback is welcome. Though not always taken.

I cannot believe the things being written by neutrals and a few Derby fans about John Eustace and his record in management.

I called this in pre season when I saw the difficulty he would have with the resources he was given and warned that he deserved a period of slack to help get through it.

Instead not only is his position being questioned which isn’t unreasonable given the performances from Derby and more importantly the results but his entire record in the game is too.

John Eustace walked into Birmingham in complete disarray and a club that had been sinking for a while in the Championship. He kept them in the division without breaking sweat first year and had them in the top six (or thereabouts) when he was sacked for a more exciting brand of football… that went well.

The came Blackburn, which admittedly did not start well and similar issues which still exist at Blackburn had caused the team to forget how to win. He then gets big results against Leeds and Leicester and they stay up. Second season, they were in the play offs, and then left to join Derby.

I have a lot of respect for Paul Warne but Derby were finishing last will him in charge. Eustace somehow manages to keep Derby up and then finishes 8th and is not far off achieving play offs and given what Hull did, you never know.

It is not going great at the moment but social media has never been worse for extreme reactions and a ball going either side of the line or not changing everyone’s perception about everyone.

Whether he stays at Derby or not, John Eustace is a good manager.

As a Norwich fan I’m used to ups and downs and seen many in my time supporting them, but it’d be interesting hearing from fans of other clubs too.

Anyone else just tired of what often is becoming a yearly cycle of changing managers, new manager turning fortunes around, expectations raised and then players downing tools the following season for the cycle to just repeat again?

It just seems when you get down to the championship the standard is such that modern day footballers are incapable of taking instructions and buying into what their manager is trying to do for any longer than 6-12 months, are their attention spans that short?

Is it because at this level as a player you can turn in 1 good performance every 4-5 games and still earn a fortune on a long contract?

We’ve got a good manager. Maybe I’ve just become tired of what the modern game has become.

Bit of a silly post really. But was talking to one my gfs and she said she finds it cringe how people can react to people half there age (players) over a game of football. Now obviously this is just an opinion who doesnt understand the passion involved.

But what are cringe things that your team or another team in the championship do?
