Is that Huddersfield Town in a different kit ?

When Wigan go up. What will happen next season ?. They always seem to be getting promoted or relegated. I am sure they are the most moved team. Wonder if somebody can find out if they are..... Blackpool have done some moving too.

They were very unfortunate with their last relegation , they looked certain to stay up , until going into administration in very dubious circumstances .

When you say getting relegated/promoted , are you talking about recent times or all time ? I seem to remember Grimsby going up and down quite a lot from the mid 80s through to the mid 2000s .

Well both I suppose. There are loads who have gone through the divisions. Wigan just seem to move every season.

Since their relegation(and including) from the Prem in 2012-13 , Wigan have had 2 promotions and 4 relegations , in the same time , Rotherham have had 4 promotions and 3 relegations , while Blackpool have had 2 promotions and 2 relegations .

I doubt it they’ve only been in the leagues 30+ years.

The great escape is on for 2 Yorkshire teams, My Barnsley and Doncaster Rovers

[Sidi Fidi Gold]

Rotherham and Wigan draw 1 - 1 , a decent result for both sides , particularly Wigan , having played on Tuesday , this result keeps both teams on track for automatic promotion , a good crowd of 10500 as well .

Barnsley away at Coventry today. I am confident. Another huge game is Doncaster v Wednesday.

[Sidi Fidi Gold]

An excellent win for Huddersfield , 2-1 away at Fulham .

Levy simply must back Conte in the summer, if not he'll walk. Spurs played well but City weren't quite sharp enough in front of goal. Spurs have big club stadium, big club manager, but do they have a big club mentality. I think probably not.

Its getting tight at the bottom of the Prem with Watford and Burnley winning , the pressures back on Leeds now , we've got Man U tomorrow , Liverpool away midweek and home to spurs next week , should be 9 points , surely !

Just before 10 o'clock yesterday morning I found myself exchanging a few jokes with Chris Kamara whilst we both did our mandatory LFTs.

Well it's funny now, hilarious if Man Utd lose this.....I speak from a Spurs perspective.

I know mate…and as I type it they grab a fourth.

Been a better second half than first half.

No consolation to a Leeds fan.

Not sure 900 police going to be enough!

We were at Elland Road. The police protected the coaches extremely well. The Manchester United coach was escorted in very securely. 

Also they walked alongside Manchester United fans to make sure there was no trouble.

Good comeback by Man Utd after losing that two goal lead. 
With City slipping up and LFC winning im expecting quite a few people around were i live, will now be looking for their LFC beach towels. They’ll be getting them ready to hang out of their front-room & bedroom windows if they win the title. 
Their No1 fan the Victorian mill owner Jacob Rhys Mogg will be delighted

This is what no trouble looks like, apparently.

And how much it costs.
