For at least a season.
One Night In Grimsby
Now now...

Still, although I thought the Seagulls would do it, I've felt for a while that Wednesday would be dark horses for promotion this season or the next one. Clearly, we're a step closer to seeing if such a thought held water. Even despite the fact they inexplicably lost games to MK Dons, Bristol City, Rotherham and Charlton in the regular season.

So Hull v Sheff Wed in the play off final, predictions people?
Shedender
2-1 Sheffield Wednesday.
One Night In Grimsby
Hereford v Morpeth in the FA Vase, followed by us v Halifax in the FA Trophy. A ticket gets you entry to both games, £25 quid adult, £10 student/OAP, £1 kids.
Hereford have sold 19,000 on last count! Great stuff by them! We'll take just over 10,000 I'd imagine (8000 sold as of last night). Looking forward to it!

1-0 Hull is my prediction.
Would probably rather Sheff Weds get promoted though, only because it's somebody different in the PL.
One Night In Grimsby
To be fair to them, they've supposedly sold 3500 themselves!

Good. Totally clueless manager in every regard.
Hopefully the Oystons are gone next.

In other news, bad luck Accrington

Both, tbh - would rather SWFC went up, but think Hull probably will.

Another disguised way of pushing Premiershit B Teams, they can jog on. There is no benefit at all to their proposals and I really hope every club tells them to fcuk off. To suggest that League 2 teams playing 8 less games a season will help the England squad is quite frankly, ludicrous.
Vercoe
Exactly this! Although I think I saw your chairman come out and say he thinks B teams are a good idea, no idea why he thinks that, maybe trying to get favours...

We dragged out appointing him, sacking McClaren, appointing the Yarm Donald Trump, sacking Carver, confirming Carver as Pardew's replacement, and confirming JFK in the DoF role. I'm used to it by now.

Let's be honest, it's ridiculous. I know the justification, but it's absolute rubbish. Clubs know the threat of relegation exists, so they should write clauses in contracts or run the risk of financial ruin without squillions in handouts for failing at a higher level. Makes a complete mockery of the idea of financial fair play, especially as they're only going to get bigger.

Really the ideal system is zero parachute payments - it would cause a fantastic situation of 17 PL Clubs and three rotating clubs on loan from the second tier for the season. Is it really economic for Middlesbrough to sign Viktor Fischer? Would it not make more sense for him to sit on the bench at Everton, and perhaps Boro can get Stephen Ward or Hunt instead?
No doubt Huddersfield will be giving back the extra solidarity payment from Burnley getting promoted?

I'd be happy enough with a solid mid table finish whilst we overhaul the entire squad and backroom and push on in 2017/18.

Welcome, after Villa's efforts this season you'll fit in well with the pessimism in this thread!
To be honest though, anything could happen with Villa next season I think, if you get your managerial appointment right then you could well be up there near the top. Get it wrong though and have the wrong type of player at the club....well you've seen how that's affected teams like Rovers, QPR etc!
One Night In Grimsby
Aye (although he's not the chairman) I saw him come out and say he thought it was a good idea, but that's a complete polar opposite to every fan of the club. Can't see it going through with the number of votes required to pass it.
In other news, we've announced our retained list. Hopefully everyone offered a contract will stay. Lost one player we wanted to keep already, Jon Nolan, who's signed for Chesterfield.
Vercoe
Ah fair enough, I must've made up the chairman bit. Nah I don't think any fan of any lower league team wants it to happen.
