    Is there that much difference

    Between the Championship and League one ( 3rd division ) ? Apart from the obvious big clubs (including us &#128515 i dont think so ,, the current top 8 or so would match anything easily in the lower 8 currently in Division 2 (championship) , Forza di Reds 🚩⚽️

    The one thing I've noticed is in the championship the finishing is way more clinical than it is at this level .

    I think what’s increasingly happening now is leagues within leagues.
    It happened a few seasons ago in the Premier - when about 6 clubs broke away from the rest.
    And this now seems to have spread to the Championship and League 1.

    The days of any team having the potential to beat any other team seems to be reducing.

    Personally I think the championship is higher in quality.

    It's the away fixtures in the Championship that tend to find you out.

    I would suggest we would get more points from visits to the present bottom four in the Third Division--Bristol Rovers, Forest Green, Burton and Morecambe than from the present bottom four in the Championship--WBA, Boro, Huddersfield and Coventry.
