And two clubs in Bristol, unless they're somehow suggesting that both clubs will band together and put 22 players on the pitch at a time.
If so, yeah mid-table feels about right.
Why does it bother you? People just want to type the shortest word. I agree it would be a problem if the other lot were in the championship. They obviously cannot use City.
It would be like me getting mad for everyone saying QPR instead of Queens Park Rangers.
Because at least QPR is still clearly referring to your team. Imagine if everyone Manchester City or Manchester United played and they were referred to as 'Manchester', it would be weird.
Likewise, if you were to be pedantic, you could refer to both Liverpool and Everton as "Liverpool" if you're just going to refer to teams based on the city they're from and not distinguish between teams.
Teams have different names because they're different clubs, being lazy is disrespectful.
You expect other teams fans to be respectful? All I can say is good luck with that.
They are clearly referring to you when they say Bristol, it's even worse with Sheffield where one team is Sheffield and the other is Wednesday.
How we do next season is really hard to tell at this point. If we keep Edwards, Mengi and Adebayo we’ll do quite well. Lose all three this summer and there’ll definitely be a drop off.
I think so too but losing those three will make getting an automatic spot very difficult. I know it’s just a bit of fun but it’s way too early to making league predictions. Burnley don’t have a manager right now so how they’ll do depends entirely on who they appoint for example.
You know I’m the first one to want to see folk drawn and quartered for calling either Wednesday or United “Sheffield” BUT, I would strongly advocate we go back to our original name of “The Wednesday” if I could and thus United could be Sheffield, so in this instance I’m abit more leniant
There's ignorant and calling us Sheffield when we aren't Sheffield FC. Them there's seeing there's a Sheffield United and a Sheffield Wednesday and calling us Sheffield anyway.
“Sheffield”, ooooof. Sir, I think you’ll find that’s the United side of the city.
Some semi-decent takes here (West Brom, Preston the bogey team and the fishing chillies in their rightful places), can see Leeds going up in the autos, also agreed with Stoke and Oxford struggling.
Can’t see Watford dropping though. Got spidey senses tingling about Portsgob, Sunderland also, think they’ll both do well. Burnley will be right up there.
I’m still swearing by Wednesday and Millwall for the autos and none of you buggers will convince me otherwise. Let an old bag dream.
FYI Americans There’s a Sheffield Wednesday and a Sheffield Thursday

People always forget there’s Bristol Rovers and Bristol Roverers
Bristol Runders
Well, we try to forget about one of them :)
You might win something if you do that?

There's also Blackburn Ravers
In the U.S they’re called the Blackburn Ravens
There’s an amateur club from Roath in Cardiff called Roath Ravers, which I’ve always enjoyed.
Sheffield 1 and Sheffield 2
God, don’t tell him there’s also a Sheffield 3 (and they’re the oldest club in the country). Minds blown.
And let's not talk about Bristol either while we're at it...
No-one knows there’s a secret whole other team in Bristol, right? Not in their name or anything, so they’re deffo well hidden.
About time the farmy army got some recognition on this sub!
That's Sheffield⁰
Apparently, it's spelt Wedensday now too... big changes at Hillboro
Got offered the job there once and was asked how flexible I was. I said I can’t manage Wednesday.
You fucking troll, love it.
Damn I guess Wednesday and United are just combining together, there's gonna be riots in the streets of Sheffield
There's a Wedensday there Dunno where it's from tho Not even Wednesday Wedensday
up the gargantuan wedensday 💪
All Wedensday aren’t we?
Big season for Sheffield following their sextuple promotion to finish in the top half
Mmm… …well, you’re wrong.
Idk, looks okay to me (I didn’t look past us getting autos)
Yank here, who you got going for the number 1 draft pick. I really like brooklyn Beckham for this years draft.
How we do next season is really hard to tell at this point. If we keep Edwards, Mengi and Adebayo we’ll do quite well. Lose all three this summer and there’ll definitely be a drop off.
And what do you reckon the chances of keeping all 3 are?
Slim. Mengi will likely go I reckon.
I still think luton will be very competitive next season though. (From a leeds fan)
I think so too but losing those three will make getting an automatic spot very difficult. I know it’s just a bit of fun but it’s way too early to making league predictions. Burnley don’t have a manager right now so how they’ll do depends entirely on who they appoint for example.
I hope they don't get lampard, I wouldn't wish that nepo baby on anybody. I think next season could be exciting because there is so many unknowns.
How anyone would even have lampard on their list is beyond me. Great player but disaster of a manager.
Middlesbrough*
Bristol and Sheffield…. Come on yanks get it right

We couldn't because of Sheffield FC. We aren't Sheffield anyway regardless of you lot
boro will finish higher and so will sunderland

I am a dumb American for a reason
hey, you did good.. you didn't relegate us

It’s Cov and Wednesday for the autos! But I do hope you’re some mystical fortune teller regardless
I would love to be a discount Mystic Mog. Here’s hoping!
