Has there ever been a League with more teams in starting with the same letter? - in this case the letter 'B'

Interesting stuff for B fans...
A third of the league begins with 'B'. Same as last year - Bournemouth have replaced Bristol City.
Law of averages says one 'B' will go up, one will lose in the play-offs, one will go down.
As no 'B' went up last year, law of averages says two 'B's will go up this year. That still leaves us one spot to play for.

Staggeringly, Bolton would have topped the league of 'B's table last season. Yet it was Brighton who made the Championship play-offs by virtue of superior results against sides not beginning 'B'. Something to look out for this season...

Only 4 teams kept a clean sheet in the Championship at the weekend. Forest being one of them

Solid :congored:
Another 45 of those will see us promoted. Possibly.

£3.5 mil and probably on a fair old wage too.

Fuming! I mean, we've assembled a quality squad, short of maybe one dynamic striker and another wide man but more than likely Wigan and QPR are just going to walk it anyway with Watford not so far behind.
The clubs who got promoted last year wouldn't stand a chance in this years league

Welcome to the future of the Championship. Soon teams like Barnsley, Millwall and Derby will be just cannon fodder like the lower teams in the Premier League.
I think the word you're looking for Kev is "bankruptcy" - especially if they don't manage promotion this season.

I have never thought Parker that great, to be honest. The press' and some fans' love for him epitomises the English love for someone who works hard, no matter how poor their technical ability. Fair enough, Parker does well in winning the ball, but he gives it straight back with a poor pass a lot of the time. Myself and my house-mates have christened his special move as the 'Scott Parker half turn', in which he wins the ball, does a small turn then either unleashes a pass straight back to the other team or turns straight into another player.
Granted, he is a good, reliable signing in the Championship, but the high wages he will no doubt be on and his advancing age (33 in October) hardly make it a spectacular signing.

A lot of people think parachute payments are allowing them to cover these costs. Granted if they fail to go up within a few seasons their income will fall and they will go over their FFP limit but right now it's possible they're acting 'fairly' in that they aren't spending beyond their means.
EDIT: Eugh! What are these new scrolly things on the posts?! Is it just me or....

Obviously Parker doesn't fancy having a pop at the World Cup with England .

James Perch is a Forest fan! Fantastic assist for the Bournemouth goal 
Callum McManaman... still not 'that kind of player' eh? Howe being PC and Coyle being a complete disgraceful wanker and trying to defend it is ridiculous. The ball was well gone and it was a wild lunge at the guy. Horrible player and manager.

Great goal by Ross McCormack for Leeds too. Not sure what the score was in the end?

Diego Fabbrini's dive to earn a penalty for Watford at Reading was embarrassing. Regardless of whether any contact is made refs should be instructed not to give penalties when a dive is that blatant...and ridiculous.
