I hope Brentford don't go up and they get rid of that long haired twat of a manager. There's something about him that really irritates me.
Don't hold back Chilli.....

Farke has done a superb job championship wise. However you just have to look at managers like Warnock who have consistently done well at Championship level yet fail abysmally in the premiership. I think there is a huge difference in assembling a team that can get out of the championship and a team that can then mix it in the premiership and for me that is where Bielsa has excelled as he didn't just build a team to do well in the championship but a team that would continue to develop and I do think would have stayed up comfortably without any new signings (if you look at it Raphinha has been the only regular anyway). Norwich are a flat track bully, excellent (better than us) at exploiting the weaknesses of a lot of championship teams but then falling flat in the premiership when the same tactics aren't as effective.
The financial side of things doesn't really make a difference. It wasn't like Bielsa signed a load of new expensive players when he took over at Leeds. He simply made the best out of players that were probably being paid far more than they should have been given their previous performances.
good points! it will be interesting to see if Farke can learn from his mistakes next season in the premier league! I think that will be the real test and whether Bielsa can continue our great form from this season into the second season...it is true that we've basically played the same team as last season for large chunks of this season and done very well - hopefully with another good recruitment summer we can be even stronger next season! excited for the leeds norwich games next year
Wycombe and Sheffield Wednesday are down almost certainly.
Finally karma catches up with both. Wednesday for ffp cheating and Wycombe for voting for the League 1 season to be ended so thwy get playoffs on a ppg basis.
Whats interesting is slightly above them.
Rotherham's defeat vs Coventry puts Coventry 6 points clear.
Wayne Rooney's Derby County are now 21st, only 4 points above Rotherham and Rotherham have 2 games in hand.
Could Karma finally catch up with Derby to?
Norwich are now on 90 points and are almost certainly promoted, fair play to them but based on history it will bring nothing to the Premier league and relegation will swiftly follow.
Watford almost certain to join them, doesnt say much for the league when 2 awful Premier league teams come down and get straight back up.
Swansea, Barnsley, Brentford and Bournemouth in the playoffs.
Norwich City have won promotion to the Premier League for a fifth time, after Brentford and Swansea's failure to win ensured Daniel Farke's side could not be caught in the automatic places.
Coberon's Huddersfield are probably safe from relegation after their victory at Forest

Fair play to Norwich, clearly the best side in the league.
Doesnt say much for the league though given that Norwich side was one of the worst in Premier league history.
Much investment needed as was shown before.
Corberan isnt doing much at Huddersfield, no idea why some of our fans obsess over him, nothing special.
