I support Queens Park Rangers in the English Championship. Was born in West London and supported them since i was 2. Gotta beat Derby tonight to stay out of the relegation zone.

Anyone else here interested in the Coca Cola Championship?

I'm not sure about the championship but if it's diet-coke and it has bourbon I'm there  ;-)

I'm actually one of those people who say's 'yeah I support Man United' but never really watch much of em unless they're in the FA Cup  :oops:  I do however, have a genuine Man United top bought for me years ago from ummm, that place where they live.......... ;-)
Oh and I'll also support Glasgow Rangers cos that's where my mum's family is from............... :lol:
When I want your opinion - I'll give it to you!

The majorty? please ;)

Like perth I take an interest in it to as have close friends who support West Brom and Stoke.

Although I take more of an interest in Football League 1 to follow my 2nd team (who are currently on top) but can't say on here as it thinks I'm swearing and changes the name of the team. :)

I keep getting emails from QPR ... they were the only people to send me a valentines day email!

Funny story too: I went to one game in 2004 when I was in England, I bought my tickets online but for two years I didn't recieve anything then every month since last November I have recieved an email from them.


I don't really follow a team I just support whoever Birmingham City is playing. ;)
Go West Brom on Sunday!

Crystal Palace fan here - we're stuck in mid table but I'm keeping my fingers crossed for an impossible Promotion play-off position. ;D
Good luck to QPR in staying up.  I used to love watching Trevor Sinclair play for you.

If QPR can produce more good results, like their spirited 3-1 win @ Leicester City last weekend, they could well stay up :)

Can't see Leeds U getting out of the drop though, barring a miracle... :(

No chance - i was born and bred in Leeds, we will stay up  - though kicking the southern git manager out and getting a good northern bloke back would help

Good to see Leeds pull themselves out of the relegation zone.  They'll have a tough match against an informed Colchester.  Hopefully Leeds can stay up.
My team Palace hammered PNE 3-0 over Easter but only a miracle will see the Eagles come into play-offs contention  :(  Oh well, another season in the Fizzy Pop League

Barring a miracle, it looks like the once mighty Leeds Utd will be playing in League 1 (3rd Tier of English Football Competition).

Derby County are currently playing Crystal Palace and the situation is:

* If Crystal Palace lose/ Derby Win: Promotion and play-offs position will be decided in the next week's Final round

* Draw: Birmingham gets the automatic Promotion

* If Crystal Palace Win  [-o< / Derby lose: Birmingham and Sunderland are Promoted back to the Premiership

Miracle = beating 3rd placed Derby by 10 and hoping Hull lose to Plymouth :lol: :lol: :lol:
