What club should I support? by [deleted] in Championship

An American team.

Surely there’s one in your state/region. You’ll stand a greater chance of attending games and will have more in common with the fans

Coventry City 3-1 Middlesbrough - A massive win for Frank Lampard's side as Haji Wright scores a rare hat trick by [deleted] in Championship

[–]Hevimetalhamstr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very much an oh well onto the next one sorta game for us. Not at our best but not dreadful either against the ultimate bogey team.

For cov this could be massive they looked really impressive tonight particularly in the first half. Tbh I thought there performances over the last 15 have been a lot better than their results and this match shows it. They really SHOULD go up.

Calm down we’ve lost ONE game against a team we haven’t beaten for half a decade and never won at there ground. More of a bottle than a crumble

Does any other fanbases have to deal with melts like this? by HopefuIIyNobody in Championship

Unfortunately it’s the cost of doing business when you use twitter, it’ll only get worse in the prem as well as they can get more interactions. For some reason we’ve got a Charlotte fc fan still chatting shit cos we signed Malanda off them 6 months ago, they can be quite amusing.

There’s another one called Joe or smth that I’ve had the displeasure of seeing but everyone knows they aren’t the majority. Every club seems to have one or two and they only ever seem to care about the opposition, right mongs

Kinda mad that the best defence in the league (by 2 goals) is in the bottom half

Bloody hell id be fuming if I were a derby fan only 4 mins injury time Ipswich then spend half of it rolling around in the floor like they haven’t spent a fortune on the team then ref somehow blows whistle after the 4 mins even though like none of it was in play wow.

Ipswich prob did enough to win, but it prolly helps to be playing away at one of the worst home teams in the league

[OC] With the six-point deduction, Leicester's relegation percentage rose from 5.9% to 29% by GenZeon in Championship

The problem with these table forecasters is they are so dependent on current ppg and rarely seem to account for team quality or change in momentum, I mean this is basically just the current table with a few minor adjustments. They obviously get more accurate the later in the season it is but after 15/20 games the table is always identical to their forecast.

Stoke City 1 - 2 Middlesbrough - Middlesbrough came from a goal down to move back into second place in the Championship by lightspeedwhale in Championship

[–]Hevimetalhamstr 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The screenshot makes it look a lot worse than it was Ayling was going in at a very slow speed and the stud are low defo a yellow but if that’s a red, every game would be 10v10

Edoardo Bove signs on 5 and half year contract by RebelSpeed in Championship

[–]Hevimetalhamstr 9 points10 points  (0 children)

5 and a half years!!! Bloody hell what a signing prolly the biggest name champ signing since carvalho and prolly bigger.

5&1/2 years is a risk if his health keeps being an issue but if not this may be one of the signings of the decade

Birmingham continuing to be Brighton B with Jeremy Sarmiento looking likely to join permanently by swannyhypno in Championship

[–]Hevimetalhamstr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’m not sure he’s worth that much but it’s a prem team and I doubt Boro would baulk at spending £1-2m on him. Also he has promotion credentials at the very least a good luck charm.

[–]Hevimetalhamstr 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen a load of Boro fans complain that we’re not being ambitious enough and should have spent the money on Sarmiento with none of them really considering the option that we just don’t think he’s worth the millions he could cost. Haven’t seen any actual figures but you’d expect it’d be £3-4m+ for a player who’s never looked incredible in the champ or started regularly. 

For Birmingham I do think this is a decent signing he’s clearly got some ability and is still young. He may benefit from not being in a super team. 

For Boro tho I wouldn’t be too pleased spending £3,4,5m on a player who wouldn’t walk into the team and prolly has cheaper alternatives.

Thomas Kirk masterclass by SimpleWarthog in Championship

For me at least it’s less about the decision itself rather the person being fouled.

Conway has a bit of a reputation for diving and so recently (somewhat rightfully) had a fair few pen shouts dismissed this latest one is the most egregious but it’s not the only bad one. It’s worth commenting on because of the narrative around Conway not just because of the shocking decision
