WarksRobin Posted April 28, 2021 Report Share Posted April 28, 2021 I want Bournemouth to go up so that the remaining parachute payments for the three clubs relegated last year are split between the EFL clubs. That money is more important than ever to the 72 at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolman_Stand Posted April 28, 2021 Report Share Posted April 28, 2021 Brentford for me, on their day they are the best team in the division and deserve their shot at the big time. Swansea's parachute payments must be up this year too so they could be in a bit of trouble financially and struggle next year, Barnsley are having a one-off season and won't be the same force next year and Bournemouth would be a cracking away weekend.

I’m now hoping that Newport make it through, to upset any train hating sags who will have to get locked out at Tranmere, Morecambe and Salford.

Midlands Robin Posted April 28, 2021 Report Share Posted April 28, 2021 Fair play to Barnsley, according to transfer market their squad is half the value of ours, they've had 3 managers in three years, were in league one a few seasons ago and only avoided being back there last season because of Wigan's 12 point deduction. To make the play offs is an impressive achievement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which considering how rich most Prem clubs are, does not seem fair or correct. Something which should be assessed by the powers that be, and made an issue by EFL clubs at the next meeting?

Jim White on TALKSPORT was talking about a campaign to get the PL to give this saved money £70m) to teams lower down the pyramid who have really suffered. The EFL are going to ask the PL . https://www.daily Mail.co.uk/sport/football/article-9513213/EFL-ask-Premier-League-70m-saved-parachute-payments-Watford-Norwich-promoted.html Not sure of their chances as the PL refused a similar request (£34m) when Fulham were promoted last season.

Littlesh*t Posted April 28, 2021 Report Share Posted April 28, 2021 Bournemouth for me for the following reasons. Swansea- welsh and shouldn't be in the English leagues so never want them to achieve anything. Barnsley- will be another "smaller" club making it and coming back down with a load of money to potentially make them strong each year. Brentford- a bit like Barnsley and surely if they keep failing at some point they have to fall apart a bit. They can't keep selling players and then always hitting recruitment well.

Mr Popodopolous Posted April 28, 2021 Report Share Posted April 28, 2021 Barnsley or Brentford deserve it most, cards being stacked as they are in terms of Parachute Payments. If Bournemouth win them, it would (I think) be the first time in PL era all 3 who went down went straight back up- and this would certainly be a bad thing!
