I know the title of the thread but if we do t meet in the league how about the old Sheffield & Hallamshire Cup?
Back to the topic, I don't think Barnsley will get relegation, I can't see Burton finishing higher than where they are now. Logically, I don't think we will get promoted either but I have a funny feeling we'll do it. It'd be a good league next season if we go up with 6 teams from Yorkshire (+ the humber) in the Championship, 7 if Huddersfield get relegated too
Ok its time for me to get involved here, and lets talk more about Burnsley eh because I know how many on here love that.
This thread asked a few decent questions aimed at all fans on here, about where we think our two clubs will end up next season. There was no need for it to get unpleasant but thankfully its only a few in the minority on here who feel they have to do that.
To be honest I think we'll fight for it and hang on for a draw at Derby, and we'll be left clinging onto the hope that Bolton & Burton both fail to win. As for Rotherham, obviously your all waiting to see who you meet in the semis now and then maybe in the Final as well. Scunny seem to be constant bottlers when it comes to the play offs and I think Shrewsbury will blow it as well, Charlton could well be the team to watch out for. (remember when they came up with both of us in the golden summer of '81)
I don't mind the Barnsley contribution on here tbh. They're not throwing insults around are they?
My honest personal feeling is that we will be in this division again next season. I hope with all my heart that we get promoted but I don't think it'll happen.
That said, I didn't think we'd do it last time. I didn't think we'd last more than a season in the championship either. I didn't think we'd go on an incredible unbeaten run and comfortably finish in the playoffs this season either. I'm nearly always wrong with my predictions and I will be over the moon if I'm wrong again.
As for Barnsley, I can't see them beating Derby. Burton have come strong at the right time. All I can say is, if we are to stay in this division, then I hope barnsley stay up. They would be a force in league 1, and another obstacle in our way next season. And we all know what KM is capable of at this level.
Yeah but we told Bradders that he can leave this summer, and that was before we beat Brentford and actually gave ourselves a chance.
All clubs think they should do well dont they when they go down to the allegedly poorer League below, and both Wigan & Blackburn deserve credit for going straight back up like they have done in Lg One this season. It helps when you have got the money and support Wigan have got from their owner and Blackburn once had it with Jack Walker as well of course.
But sometimes teams go right down to Lg Two as well, Swindon are an example there and that wasnt that long after they had lost in a previous Lg One play off final.
Caant see ought wrong wi' baaarnsley lads comin on here..it shows this site is healthy and thriving..an ell tell thi this o'd cock..ad rather ev em than a certain tuther mob..
Barnsley to stay up I hope, I never wish a Yorkshire team to be relegated, last Saturday Kieffer Moore could & should have had a hat trick on what I saw on TV.
But Moores miss on the goal line the week before could come back to haunt Barnsley, a point gained that game could have made a big difference.
But good luck to Barnsley on Saturday, in their own hands.
