shame Everton couldn’t go down, so it’s Leeds, Leicester and Southampton relegated, down you go.

We had a tough year, but Leicester going down after their championship run and few solid seasons, wow, they are having it way worse

Yeah it's sad. They probably gave Brendan Rodgers a lot more rope than they should've

As soon as the commentator said ex Chelsea Dabo to take Coventrys next penalty - I said 'he's going to miss'.

and ex Chels Panzo blew the game if not for the handball

9 years ago Luton were not even in the Football League, now they are in the biggest league on the planet

with a stadium that you have to walk through people's back row house gardens to get into the away stands, lolol

Josh Windass, who scored the winner just now for Sheffield Wednesday in a Wembley promotion final, did the same thing his father did 15 years ago

Dean Windass

On 22 March 2008, in a match against Leicester City, Windass made his 700th career appearance. On 11 May, he scored his 200th goal in English football, in the Championship play-off semi-final first leg against Watford.

His 201st was a volley from the edge of the area in the play-off final at Wembley Stadium on 24 May 2008, giving Hull City a 1–0 win against Bristol City, which meant that Hull City were promoted to the Premier League for the first time in their 104-year history.

Some crazy architecture there, super interesting and quaint, but how is that supposed to work in PL I have no idea. Let alone the fact that people heading to a game will block the whole district.

the people who live there go mental over the parking (they have to move their cars every home game) plus a bunch of away hooligans pissing, shitting, tossing rubbish all over

now imagine thousands of drunk AF bindippers and Mancs invading yer neighbourhood

eeek

Be intresting to see how it all works...think they have to do stuff to make it premier league ready for VAR and that. Fans definitely in for a surprise but it's character I guess...the new plans look nice! 

But then I guess if sold out championship games this be no different the amount of crowd wise..the traffic round there is always a nightmare anyway and all.

Just seen the BBC thing. 23 predictions. 9 we proved very wrong..and only 1 reckoned Man U would make top 4..
