The playoffs.

Hull v Millwall ..nothing on show, so far, to get excited about.

Millwall for me.

Was hoping that all semi finals were going to be like PSG v Bayern…disappointed tonight

It's galling to see two such dreadful teams in this. Us, Forest, Cardiff and Reading were all so much better than this in the year we went up. It's atrocious stuff.

I’ve said for a while that I thought Ipswich & Southampton would go up - which doesn’t make it as galling for me looking at their squads, but this season was a great opportunity for 15-20 sides to make the playoffs - and many will see it as an opportunity missed (fair play to Hull & especially Millwall mind!)

That’s not to say we should have made it this season, but there aren’t many Championship seasons where there’s so little to choose from top to bottom.

What a dreadful game of football

In most Championship seasons the only real difference between teams in the playoffs and those lower down the table is finding consistent runs of form.

This season is probably a bit of an outlier in that the teams with Parachute payments aren't the clear frontrunners, but generally positions 4-6 are wide open. We certainly should have been closer than we were between 2021 and 2023. Probably would have been with competent management.
