What a pile of shite the standard is in this seasons championship!
Considering this being billed as the biggest game in the world finance wise, it's an embarrassment.

Looks like one of these two will be a nailed on certainty for relegation next year.Quote:

Still have the feeling that next season we could match these 2, however one will be bottom of the Prem now
Too much riding on this game to make this type of judgement.Quote:

I don't think that means the league was weak though.
Huddersfield though at least had some attacking intent at times.
I honestly think if reading had gone up they would have broken the billy Davies Derby team record for lowest points total.
Their 2 best players were Ali al habsi and Jan kermogrant who will both be 36 next season. And their underlying stats were awful this season.
Being Skyless and BT Sportless these days, the FA Cup Final was the first match I'd watched in it's entirety since our game with Newcastle. Yesterday's game could be added to what has become a pretty long list of matches I've listened to lately and thought "it doesn't sound as if I'm missing much there" - my question to those who did watch it is, was it more of a spectacle than our game with QPR in 2003?
I read somewhere that since Champs League matches had been switched to BT Sports, the viewing figures have been very low and disappointing for the authorities. Obviously not helped by British team failing to progress in the competition. The Europa Final was a drab affair, lets hope the Champions Final lives up to its billing.
Obviously a higher standard and some exciting players on show but it wasn't a good spectacle. Hard to compare with Cardiff QPR as its a totally different experience, you forget the game and just remember the goal.Quote:

Think he tried to chip Alexander, didn't he? Andy Thomson if memory serves. I also remember Prior's header at the other end, God knows how Day saved that!Quote:
