With the play-offs, it seems to be a matter of which you would least mind being promoted. For me, I guess I'd be least displeased by Swans beating Brentford in the semis, but loosing to Fulham in the final.

25 Jul 2020 19:53:37
as long as its not Cardiff.

25 Jul 2020 21:48:43
personally i'd like brentford, they played great football. nice to see a different team come up and doing a bit of a leeds last season i feel for the players and the fans

that said if they don't go up we might get berahrshangegagagsbaga who i hope we sign as he is a great player and i am looking forward to learning how to spell his name.

Berm Have you ever visited the Planet 🌍?

26 Jul 2020 00:28:24
Brentford for me. Play great football and a club from my neck of the woods. Like a mini QPR if that’s possible!

26 Jul 2020 06:19:40
Not Brentford there's a nough diving cheats in league already.

26 Jul 2020 07:21:32
Swansea.

26 Jul 2020 10:12:45
Wouldn't want the Swans after they shafted us on Dan James, and were among the most vocal on 'spygate'. As wigan says, we don't need the Bees diving. (and generally cheating and whingeing) in the Prem - and as for Baadiff.

26 Jul 2020 10:44:44
Swansea for me. definitely not another London club or Baadiff!

26 Jul 2020 10:56:02
Teh Aus as a least worst, Swansea. But I am torn with Brentford. They deserve to go up, they played the best football, they're in the prime position so should go up BUT if they do we we won't get Benrahahahahahma.

26 Jul 2020 12:39:16
Yeah but brentford bottled it the first time pressure was on.
Swans just kept plugging away.

26 Jul 2020 12:43:19
Brentford deserve it begrudgingly . but have a feeling one of the Welsh teams will get promoted.

26 Jul 2020 20:00:34
Watching the playoff game, all I can think is thank goodness we’re not involved in it!

25 Jul 2020 01:53:36
With Ben White likely to go and Bournemouth likely to go down, would Lewis Cook be a prudent purchase and what kind of reception would he get? MoT.

25 Jul 2020 06:37:43
Different positions aren't they Fred?

Would Cook fit into a Bielsa team is the poignant question.

25 Jul 2020 09:31:00
love lewis cook great player and would welcome back however d we need cm's? I'd rather save the money and stick with Shacks.

25 Jul 2020 10:13:53
Players returning to. a club for a second spell rarely work well (David Batty the only exception that comes to mind for Leeds United) . so Lewis Cook NO THANKS.

25 Jul 2020 10:41:44
excuse me BV how about sir john lukic.

I am not aginst players coming back, love charlie taylor back or course milner won't happen but that would be amazing. I would take cook back if we didn't have cover in that area. I think shacks will be a regular next year and show his class and get on fringes of england team (ahead of cook who has been held back by injuries)

25 Jul 2020 18:57:11
Yeah John Lukic agreed Berm.

25 Jul 2020 20:02:17
John Charles?

25 Jul 2020 21:49:49
john charles a bit before my time but yeah i believe he wasnt a bad player and did ok

and thanks BV i know this is a banter site but sir john means a lot to me.

25 Jul 2020 22:56:08
During 1953/ 54 season when we finished 10th in Div 2 ( today’s Championship ) we scored a total of 89 goals of those John Charles scored 42 of them in 39 appearances playing some games at centre half.

25 Jul 2020 23:22:58
so what you are saying spytacus is he wasn't a bad player?

26 Jul 2020 02:13:20
Alf Correct question to pose and the answer is no he would not. He can stay in the Championship.

26 Jul 2020 10:40:11
Nah not lewis cook for me . Once a player leaves then that’s it . There is always other better players available . I’d rather have Shackleton to be honest . We got Bogusz as well .

26 Jul 2020 15:08:01
He sure was Berm, went to Juventus in 1957 when they were just clear of relegation in Serie A . Fired them to the top with 28 goals that season and at a time when most of Italian football was defensive and 1- 0 score lines were the norm.
