Certainly not very good with regards to bringing any number of away supporters cf likes of Leeds and WBA but this may well not be an issue anyway.
Fron the point of view of not coming up against big clubs it couldn't be much better than next season especially with the Owls and Derby likely to be deducted points.
Worst aspect is the long away treks, if we are let in.
I once drove to Bournemouth for a midweek game (we lost). After the match I just thought 'sod it', went for a curry and a pint and stopped in a Travel Lodge...took rather a long time to get back home.

Pretty poor league next season if we can get the next few weeks right.

Pretty poor league next season if we can get the next few weeks right. Even if they lose a couple of their stars, Watford will have a pretty strong side for the Championship.
Bournemouth and Norwich harder to judge. Nobody coming up will be particularly good.
It's down to us though. If we don't invest then it will be same again, or worse.

Fancy Watford away but that's not going to happen. Bournemouth away also. Is there a travel lodge on sandbanks? The vultures will have a nibble at the relegated sides squads.
Might be a good chance to break into the top 6.

Fulham or Brentford?
Shame to lose one, both good trips...from a selfish position I hope Fulham go up then it's trip to a new stadium assuming we are let in. If we are not to be let in then I hope Brentford go up...they deserve it, well run and decent supporters.

Couldn't agree more mid but don't blame the EFL, the matter was passed to an independent commission...it was always going to be next season as well. What's poor is that it's only 12 points when it could have been 21.

Makes my blood boil this. When we was in for Adam Reach they blew us out of the water with wages and transfer fee. Cheats.

Same with derby aswell. We miss out on the play offs by a point to them, but yet they’re bending the rules and get away with is.

2021 the rise of the underdog, a new world order were passion pride commitment and a general understanding that the old world of greed selfishness one upmanship is obscene will see our team not overcome not challenge just surge (the makings of a delusional man in his caravan in Cumbria with a few cheeky chardonnays in side him) hacking down

Another beautiful day in the South Lakes - not! Think there will be a fire sale at Watford and Bournemouth Norwich will lose some could be slightly easier but as someone has said it is down to what we do not everyone else. I do like that we are looking for a winger mind give us a thrust forward. Huntingdon in his comments give me the impression he is seeing out his contract, which is disappointing. I still think the squad is too heavy I would let Nugent and Gallagher go free up some wages and I expect Pearson to depart to offset the losses TH incurs. Davies if he goes will be a blow, and one the fans will rightly moan about. Need a new left and right back (THOUGH NOT SURE GAFFER THINKS THAT) and that might be that. I still think a lot of teams will go into administration or will not be active in the market its all ifs buts and maybes but that is pre season for you.

Wage cap 1.5m for league 2 - 25 player squad would get 60,000 p/a each 2.5m for league 1 - 25 player squad would get 100,000 p/a each
Championship next?

Could well be a totally different league next season. No - one with any clout, teams with a settled squad beating more fancied teams, squads coming down from Premiership finding losing attitude difficult to lose. We may have our best opportunity for years, but does TH know it?

One way to ensure we don't get beat. Keep safe everyone, this virus has not run its course yet. Youngsters in particular think they are immune. PS Hibs had a good win today with Horgan and Boyle starring but they've bought a Striker, who scored 3 goals. Anyone know anything about him?

Not sure which Boyle you’re referring to but the one we had is back at Dundalk.

Not Championship standard. Could run at players but looked uncoachable / tactically inept off the ball. End product very poor. On the whole he hasn’t done a great deal at Hibs. Was the correct decision to get rid because we already had far better at the club and still do now.
