Relegation fodder

[Stratman Wolves]

I don't know about you lot, but I am quite happy to see Huddersfield, Fulham, and one of Cardiff/Brighton ****ing off for good. Hopefully Burnley goes down next season, and I think Bournemouth will be exposed with VAR next season as the thugs they are.

Not that the crop in the Championship currently will bring exciting football to the Prem, but Leeds, Norwich, Sheffield Utd, or dare I say...the clubs that need not mentioning...would make the Premier League far more interesting than these boring clubs.

 

[woop woop barmy army]

Just add Watford to that. Need them to go down next season

Hudds or Fulham great for an away day.

Norwich is ****e.

In a perfect world, they would've ****ed off long ago. Sadly, I think they'll be midtable fixtures for a while.

I think Norwich is a great away day/stop over. Just a bugger to get too.

Huddersfield is such a poor team even the MOTD highlights couldn't make them any better - Empty seats.
Fulham - Cavalier football over a season does not suit the Premier League.
Cardiff - Enough said - Wave bye bye please.
Bournemouth - Yep would not miss them.
I'd love to see someone like Everton drop down, taking the mid table money and play poor football, fleecing the fans for me.

One of the better sides in the league. Outplayed us twice already.

Still cannot see how they outplayed us at Wembley.

They were the better side. Hate to say it but it’s a fact. We were very fortunate to be ahead at half time.

Did you watch the semi? Yes they beat us? But for 79 minutes we was the better team

Very even game, however Watford just shaded it for me..

Why would you like to c Everton go down, great club with the most nolagable fans in the country.

Yes. Yes I did. For 79 minutes we were ahead, and then dared to dream, and regretted it. We lost. They deserved the win- the ****ing ****s they are.

Because I would, the board have lacked any notion of trying to break into the top 6 for years. And Everton are just a team that drifts along.
Nothing against fans...more the club ambition and playing style.

Like Wolves ozing tradition playrd more games thantany other club in the to division of England football .

 

[we8wba]

Brighton
Burnley
Norwich
Leeds/sheff
Wba/Leeds/sheff/derby/boro/Bristol

All relegation fodder next season

Likes of

Bounmouth/us/saints/palace/Watford/Newcastle could get sucked into the mix on any bad season but should have enough based on today’s squads although you never know where it comes to it

Obviously, your not getting WHY i said a club like Everton to go down (I think you've said played more games in the top division) is an example to the reason why.. and offered NOTHING

Huddersfield Fulham and Cardiff this season

All in the mix next season ....only the top six are immune

Agree. Everton have had their flirtations with relegation, as have Southampton, West Ham and Burnley - who had a more successful season last time around than we are having this year. Wolves could find themselves trying to improve but going backwards but so could Watford, Leicester, Bournemouth, just about anybody from 7th down.

Just hope that if Wolves do the three steps forward, one step back, two steps forward, five steps back, Fosun don't pull the plug.

Could so easily be back where we started under Fosun in five years time.

 

[JadeWolf]

Norwich are really good to watch and i think they’ll add a lot to the league, ****e away day though!

If Leeds come up the media love in with them will be irritating but I don’t think they’d stop up. Anyone else would just be bottom all season.

Thing is you’ve also got Brighton/Cardiff, Burnley, Southampton, even Newcastle/Palace/Bournemouth who could be down there next year. I’ve gotta say the one thing that’s surprised me in a bad way this season is just how poor some of the teams are in the PL. Brighton wouldn’t look out of place in League 1.

 

[Jonny De Wolf]

I mentioned previously that my local council erected some signs for Huddersfield
The council put out a tweet on 3rd April saying they had been removed but not by them! (it wasn't me either the signs were safe and would be given to Town fans
Iconic Premier Town signs were not taken down by us – but we will be giving them away to fans

Agree that the EPL is probably the toughest and most unforgiving league in in Europe (at the least), but despite some initial clangers (ie Walter Zenga), I think Fosun, with Laurie Dalrymple at the helm, now have a much clearer vision of what is needed to achieve sustained success in this league.
We should never have lost the semi final, but we move on. Watford are here to stay in this league, at least for the foreseeable future, and they, together with teams like Leicester, Everton, and West Ham are the standard against which we need to measure our own progress.
Living in Poole, I wouldn’t mind in the least if Bournemouth went down, with maybe Pompey in a couple of seasons coming back up.

They spent over £300m in the last couple of years, id hardly say the board have lacked any notion of trying to break into the top 6.

 

[jeb01]

If we’re talking good away days, hopefully Brizzle will make it through the playoffs (looking less likely at the moment).
To be honest I wouldn’t mind either Albion or Villa coming back up - simply for the derby days.

Disagree.

Bristol or Sheff Utd would be good.

Watford will never go down.

As much as we all hate them at the moment, being close to London, and not scared of spending, they will always have decent enough players to remain above halfway.

 

[The Fat Bloke]

After watching both Brighton games, I think they are a shameful advert for football, not deserving of a spot in the best league on the planet.

Imagine those poor buggers that have to go every week.

 

[SA Wolf]

Don't really mind who goes down so long as it's not us.

 

[freezin]

I think Cardiff have more fight than Brighton.

Whichever of those stay up they're merely delaying the inevitable for next season.

 

[theweave]

I spoke to a Brighton fan who apologised for the boring game but then went on to say that they had to do it to survive. I argued what's the point in surviving if it's another year of that.

 

[Deleted member 3751]

They didn't outplay us at Wembley. We controlled that game for 75 minutes and then imploded. We'd scored twice and had three or four efforts that on another day go in, all Ruddy had to do until that point was fetch the ball off the ball boys

 

[reanswolf]

I think describing other teams as relegation fodder makes us look arrogant, its only because of Fosun that we are in this bloody division!
People should remember where we came from and how we got here.

We came from being a founder member of the FL, have a proud history and are a Premier league team playing in the Premier league.

And many other teams have spent copious amount of money on poor players and got nowhere near.
Just think it needs a so call established club to go down like Everton to shake the Prem up posasible with likes of West Ham (again) .
What have they done this season? Last season, season before ? ok Since Moyes left ??

Lets reflect that with a British coach Wolves would be playing a similar game to Brighton and fighting for survival.

 

[The Professional]

Brighton remind me a lot of us under Mick. Very limited, grafters, and not great to watch at all. I’m not saying we should like them, or enjoy their play- but a lot of us are really sounding very snobbish about football now. We are lucky to be watching good football at the moment, even when it’s difficult to see the team struggle to score against Brighton , Huddersfield, etc.

Everton seem to have our syndrome, they turn up against the big clubs, just looking at their last 4 home games, city, Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal - 7 points, lost away Fulham, Newcastle, Watford.... sound familiar?
Interesting to see if they turn up today for the United game.

Looks like they have turned up today too.

Must have dreamt Andre Gray missing 2 then. Bottom line is the better team has won both times we’ve played Watford.
