Being in the Champo it's not a big problem for me, I like that league, also I think our squad is the strongest there, even if our top players go. We only need a good coach to get back at first try.

Re: Relegation rivals
Guys I am tempted to run a poll for those who have us relegated already.
If we do manage to stay up will you be going to watch Championship games next season or will you attend ER, watch Leeds in the Premiership and happily eat your words?
Was going to put "serious question" but it's not really ........................

Obviously, we are all hoping for a Newcastle win on Sunday, just remembered Eddie Howe used to manage Burnley.

They were 16th in the championship at the time after finishing much higher the previous season and the fans weren't behind him.
Cant see too many sentiments.

Re: Relegation rivals
There was a Theatre Porter at a hospital in Walsall where I worked once upon a time. Great laugh for everyone else but must have been dead tedious for him the poor bugger. Took it all in good heart though and laughed through most of the stick he got.

Thanks for that. Normally up to speed on Cockney rhyming slang, from Delboy, and the Walford crew.

Re: Relegation rivals
Nice report on the Beeb regarding Everton's financial losses - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/61529371
Key details are :-
Both clubs wrote to the league last week regarding Everton's most recent accounts which showed losses of £120.9m for the 2020-21 season.
They have posted losses of £372m over the past three years.
League profitability and sustainability rules allow for losses of £105m over a three-year period.
Everton say that Covid-19 losses over the past two seasons amount to £170m, which can be deducted from their total.
But that figure has caused surprise among some Premier League teams because it dwarfs clubs of a similar size.
Earlier this week, Newcastle posted Covid-19 losses of £40m over the past two seasons, while Aston Villa said theirs amounted to £56m.

I'm one that is pleased we have owners that appear to run the ship with some sort of financial stability (or so it appears to me).
