Presuming we get there.  Which current championship sides would you like us to be playing next year.

Looking at the table at the moment Id like to see Donny get out of it and the slave traders to drop with Coventry and Pompey.

City,pompey and reading

Doncaster are having a mini resurgence at the moment, and could well escape it, plus they have a game in hand or two over the teams above them.

I'd like to see Coventry and Bristol City relegated. I think Pompey are as good as down anyway, but would be a good third choice.

Reading are flying at the moment, 7 wins on the bounce and could well nick one of the two top spots.

I just hope West Ham get promoted, otherwise they may sack Alladyce, and we all know what that could mean.

Doncaster and Coventry are both new grounds to go to.

Never been to Fratton Park either.

I was taking the "Want" part of the question literally :)

Hope Forest don't go down, been there loads.

Call me paranoid, but apart from league two, West Ham's results are the ones I've been watching most this season - for this very reason.

Absolutely.

I dont doubt Paolo's loyalty and i do believe he is here for the long run.  However i think West Ham would be pretty tough for him to turn down.  We need Alladyce to take them up.

Slave traders, Pompey and Coventry for me! Not been pompey or coventry before

Paolo wont go yet.

With the squad we have in this league, getting us up is doesn't necessarily prove much to potential employers. I'm not saying he hasn't done a great job, because he has, just that I think a bigger club would want to see him tested more before taking the risk.

If he does the same again next season, however, somebody will surely come in for him.

On topic - Doncaster, City and Portsmouth.

City Donny and Pompey would be my pick, I think it might be Coventry or Forest going down in place of City though.

serious q. why would anyone want donny to go down, at the expense of say cov..who would want to go to donny?

Would love to renew acquiantances (hostilities!) with City.  It's been a while, if you forget the cup game earlier this year.  They always bring loads to the County Ground and we take loads there.  A great derby that we need to have back.

Otherwise, Coventry would be good, for a few seasons at least.  Almost a local game, and a new ground.  They're also a side that we've played very rarely, at least in recent years.  And Pompey, obviously.  I'd love to have them in our division again.  Trust me, if we do end up losing the Oxford game next season, gaining league fixtures against Pompey and City will more than compensate.

Shouldn't they be in the SPL anyway?  :wink:

Technically the only Scottish club playing in the english leagues :D

Who do I want to go down is different from who I think will go down.

I want Reading, Brighton and Shitty to go down.
I think it will be Pompey, Coventry and Forest.

Pompey would be nice, local for me. Hope B'mth stay down too, could walk to that if I was so inclined

I have a feeling that they have blown their chance already of promotion - may be play offs at best for them, they are not doing too well on the pitch at the moment and the chairman is a bit of a twat too by the look of it.

Understatement of the century?

Forest, Coventry and Donny... All fairly local ones for me...

Slave Traders, Coventry and Pompey!

Quite possibly!

If we get promoted I would like to play Portsmouth, Bristol City and Coventry. Wouldn't mind Forest either.

I would quite like Wycombe to stay up as well, I like going there.

He's a bit more than a bit of a twat

Agree that they have blown it, just writing it down so it's set in stone JJ
Don't think they'll even make the play offs

Any Northern based teams.

Any midlands based teams.  :P

Good point. Any team North of London is Northern to me!

Yeah-White Horse!!!

:nod:    :thumb:

Obviously Peterborough would be better

Brizzle City, Cov & either Forest or Pompey - all accessible away trips.

Coventry will be a great awayday if we are doing well.

Id love to go to Pompey next season.

City would be an interesting one. Ive heard their fans gone a bit softer after a few years in the Championship. Last few times at Rovers Ive had a decent day out in a group. Have to admit that 12-6 years ago, drinking in pubs in Bristol before City games in a group was a bit of a no go. A real nightmare.

Not interested in Doncaster one bit. Really sad Coventry have moved to the Ricoh. Its been a complete disaster for them, and it has nowhere near the character of Highfield road (and its much further from the station). So not that excited about Cov either. Prefer to have Millwall back on the fixture list.

With the greatest of respect, fuck that. Forest, Coventry and Slave Traders will do me nicely.

They aint that bad. Apart from big games at the County Ground, midweek. Then they are a fucking nightmare.

I see City have been allowed to play Cardiff at 5pm on saturday! Definately going soft.
