Final day of drama in the Championship

Championship
comment on the article

So, the Championship comes to an end on Sunday.

It will surely be a day of great drama with so much at stake at both ends of the table.

If you are a supporter of Hull or Stoke I would love to know what promotion will mean to your club.

Conversely, if you follow Blackpool, Coventry, Sheffield Wednesday, Leicester or Southampton, what will relegation mean for your club? Wil it be a total disaster or will you come bouncing back next season?

Relegation would be bad for whoever goes down. I think it would be worst for Southampton from a financial point of view. Wouldnt be good for Blackpool but in a way we would only be going back to where we were. The 1st division will be a shock for Leicester, southampton or coventry. Less of a shock for Wednesday because they have at least been there. Not that easy to bounce straight back, Wednesday can tell you that.

Want to stay upto prove to a lot of people Blackpool can stay up. I can remember the BBC saying we had as much chance of staying up as a sand castle surviving the tide coming in.

My mum is a Saints fan and i think that if they do go down they could fold all together
i think they need to bring in someone more experienced with jobs like this They should have brought in Hoddle but anyway back to the
Subject Saints i predict will stay up as i think results will go like this:

SAINTS 1-1 S UTD
STOKE 2-0 LIECESTER
BLACKPOOL 1-1 WATFORD
CHARLTON 2-2 COVENTRY
SHEFF WED 2-1 NOWRICH

leaving the table like this:
18:SHEFF WED 55
19:BLACKPOLL 54
20:COVENTRY 54
21:SOUTHAMPTON 52
-------------------------
22:LICESTER 51

I live in Leicester but support spurs, and I can tell you that everyone is soooo nervous about the match tomorrow, everyone is backing city to beat the drop, but they're so unpredictable no one is sure what is going to happen.

But still, I can see city pulling off a win a sneaky win at stoke, and for some reason people think that soton will beat sheff u which is a joke becuase they are the form side. So I can see city stayin up!

Bye bye soton.

Stoke have never been in the Premiership. They have been in the first division before. So what's so fascinating and compelling about them not appearing in the Premiership. How pedantic and sensationalist must we be to grab a useless meaningless headline that has no relevance or meaning, in fact all it does is confuse the real issue about top flight appearances. Desperate journalism or what yikes

Im a palace fan i feel like we will finish 5th and wolves will get 6th with watford falling short. I also think that West Brom and stoke will get automatic promotion. I think palace will win the play off.
At the bottom i think that leicester will be relegated and southhampton will just be safe.
