22A Posted May 9, 2021 Report Share Posted May 9, 2021 OK; which teams would you prefer to get promoted this year. Championship ; Barnsley because 1; they're the furthest of the four contenders to travel to and 2; it reminds everyone a "little club" can still make the Prem. League 1; Oxford because 1; it's not too far to travel and 2; it'll annoy Swindon t see their local rival two divisions higher. League 2; FGR because 1; they're a localish team and 2; it'll hack off Rovers & Swindon to see FGR as well as Cheltenham higher up the League than them.

SecretSam Posted May 9, 2021 Report Share Posted May 9, 2021 Championship: Not Brentford, 'cos it's a nice easy game to get to and I haven't seen their new ground L1: I want Oxford up, 'cos it's a nice easy game to get to, and I haven't been to their not-so-new ground L2: FGR, because someone has to restore some pride in the West (with nods to Cheltenham) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baba Yaga Posted May 9, 2021 Report Share Posted May 9, 2021 Barnsley - like to see teams up against it do well, believe Brentford have a long record of bottling the play offs so they can continue that curse for all I care, one day would be nice to see them in the prem. Quite like Swansea so wouldn't mind if it's them and Bournemouth I don't mind but not this year. Lincoln - similar to Barnsley although also because they would likely be near the bottom and that's good for us, same for Oxford. Blackpool are the team I fancy to win as they are in good form and have a good record in play offs I think. Not Sunderland, nothing against LJ but a club of that size should really get automatic promotion. Can make a case for Morecambe, FGR as they have never played at that level, also wouldn't mind seeing Newport going up either. Quite like Tranmere too but they are my last choice compared to the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2015 Posted May 9, 2021 Report Share Posted May 9, 2021 Championship - Barnsley League 1 - Oxford (to annoy Swindon and fairly local) wouldn't mind a Blackpool return or Lincoln to come up either. League 2 - Morecambe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron Acton Red Posted May 9, 2021 Report Share Posted May 9, 2021 Brentford for me, just because we wont have to get beat by them next season. Also i think Barnsley wont have a similar season next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not bet against them,if they don't go up through the playoffs, having another good season next year. But yes it would be nice not to face Brentford next season Personally anyone but Bournemouth for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just know the Gas fans are already eyeing up FGR away as the must go to away game next season and are hoping that they stay down, its very harsh wanting to take that away from them.

Offside Posted May 9, 2021 Report Share Posted May 9, 2021 Brentford - at least they wouldn’t beat us next season. I really don’t want Barnsley to do it, that would irk me. Oxford. And if they don’t get into the play offs, Blackpool just for a weekend away in a tacky resort. FGR - them being a league above the fewers would be very satisfying.

Red-Robbo Posted May 9, 2021 Report Share Posted May 9, 2021 Championship - Brentford. They deserve it. Nice fans too. L1 - Lincoln. I'd rather not have big, well-financed clubs as next season's opponents! L2 - FGR. Just to piss off the Gas. Leave them as Gloucestershire's third team.

BS2 Red Posted May 9, 2021 Report Share Posted May 9, 2021 I don't really care, but if I had to choose: Champ - Brentford - they've never been in the Prem. L1 - Lincoln - no real reason, a toss up for me between them and Oxford. L2 - FGR - it's time for them to be the biggest Rovers in the West.

Fordy62 Posted May 9, 2021 Report Share Posted May 9, 2021 Brentford kind of deserve it. Oxford & The Snake FGR because I like what they stand for.... nah that’s bollocks, I’m a Gloucestershire boy and who doesn’t love a little club punching.
