What do you think you'll miss the most from being in the Premiership that we learnt to take for granted? Here are a few of mine ...

Being linked with top quality players and them wanting to come to us
Being able to shout "WHO?!" when Owen, Henry etc come on as subs
Being on Match of the Day every week (even if it was only for 2minutes)
Derbys against Villa
Not many empty seats

apart from the ones already mentioned

the lack of international recognition

and it's not as easy to find information about lower league teams.

Matches - cause we get no coverage of it from here.

I have Bluesworld - it's great, badly needed for the calls and news each day. and the highlights are always fun, even when we loose.

Definitely football first. I go to most of the games but I also like to watch the highlights on TV as you get to see it all from a different view. Sky sports should do a Football First on a Sunay night with all the championship games- I would pay and I'm sure others would too. feed.back

I watched the two championship play off games this week. The standard of football was crap. I'm going to miss watching some of the best players in the world.

And when did we ever get that? When I got a ticket off a tout for the Rome derby he asked who I supported I told him BCFC and he looked genuinely confused, he had never heard of us! And to be fair why should he have, we have done nothing! :(

In one word, everything!! it is the only league to be in, i think when the fixture list comes out those who have been saying they wont miss the Prem might have second thought, a trip to Roots Hall or Anfield? there really is only one choice, and i hope all who said that going down is not so bad thoroughly enjoy watching the c**p that will be visiting St.Andrews next year

Sponsored bookings
A lack of goals for
Heskey
Agreeing fees for players we have no chance of signing
15 seconds on MOTD each week
Being patronised by the national media
Losing live on tv
Being told we have a squad good enough for Europe (unless the Board is referring to the Eurovision)
Panic loan signings in January-Ferdinand Coly anyone?
Ridiculous lies in the season ticket renewal letter.

Hopefully, the following cliche's:-

That's for sure
That little bit o luck
Rub of the green
If we can just get Muzzy Izzet fit...
Wor big players
Emile Heskey is the best centre forward of his type ( The type that doesn't score)
That's my worst night ever in football.
We won't play that badly again (for at least 7 days)

Look on the bright side, the scrapping's ace.

Did you see that melee at the Watford v Palarse game. Even Man U and Arsenal couldn't compete with that.
