Looking Forward
If you were the God of Football and fascinated with the Championship, who would you bless with promotion and curse with relegation this fine season?
For me it is easy:
Down
Peterborough
Luton
Derby
Up
Blackburn (so we don't play them)
Coventry (As Champions)
Blackpool
Also I would make Championship Champions be the English Qualifier for the UEFA Europa Conference League [the checkatrade european thing Spurs are in].

Down
Peterborough, Luton and Derby
Up
Fulham, Notts Forest and Middlesbrough
Can't argue with any of those.
Fully agree with @MindlessDrugHoover though I would of course insert Nottingham in there...but I suspect he knew that!
Think you could be guaranteeing relegation with that last rule!
I reckon it would be great for the winners of the JPT Pizza Cup to get into the Europa conference, the lower league fans would love it (once travel is allowed).
Down: Derby
Posh
Millwall
Up: Coventry
Hull
Sheffield United
Blame Mooneyman. Yes, blame him. (I was born in Nottingham General, so would never make such a heinous error).
Yup sorry...I think @mooneyman has form in this area...
Nottingham not Notts. Heinous indeed.
But I thought you were a proud Scot @MindlessDrugHoover.
Up....
Fulham
Blackpool
Millwall
Down...
Peterborough
Derby
Sheffield United
☝️ Middlesbrough
☝️ Blackpool
☝️ Huddersfield
? Millwall
? Sheffield Utd
? Peterborough
And Derby to just cease to exist.
Thumb thought of nonthence going on there. Millwall are so divisive.
Half Scot, half Yorkshireman by blood; Nottingham born, Wycombe raised (via Scotland, Northern Ireland and Nottingham again). I'm complicated. But also very simple.
A year or two ago I'd have put Millwall in the group I'd like to see go up, but f*ck them for their booing anti-racism.
Walthamsow born, Nottingham raised, Bucks for about 22 years now. I'm simplistic.
Ian Beale was born in Walthamstow in 1968, one of your schoolmates @Wendoverman?
I doubt it unless he moved to Nottingham in 1964. 1980s Breakdancing legend Albert Trix Thompson of the Rock City Crew was a classmate though.
I’ve had to resort to the dictionary to understand the difference between you two, @MindlessDrugHoover & @Wendoverman. It seems that the former is “plain, easy and ordinary” and the latter “characterised by extreme and often misleading simplicity.” You pays yer money and makes yer choice.
Up:
QPR
Blackburn
Preston
This is purely so none of them are tempted to test GA's resolve again, as they are all doing too well.
Down:
Derby
Peterborough
Stoke
We’d better try and go up then, @Shev.
We have a better PPG than the promotion season, so I am confident!
