And we bid farewell to Birmingham, Blackpool and West Ham

Dutch Toffee · May 22, 2011

Will miss West Ham. Hope they finish runner up to Nottingham Forest in the Championship next season, don't care about the other two.

I would have preferred Wolves to drop rather than Birmingham but I'm pleased as punch that Wigan survived and West Ham didn't.

West Ham I've always thought of as a proper club, that is until Gold and Sullivan took over, can't bring myself to feel sorry for those two clowns personally.

Agree with that, but a club isn't measured by it's owners by me, but by their fans. Hope they come straight back up and get rid of G&S at the same time.

Glad Wigan stayed up (soft spot for their manager).

Indifferent to Brum and West Ham.

Wouldn't have minded Blackpool staying up at the expense of Blackburn.

Couldn't have hoped for more, honestly.

I was hoping for Wigan and Blackburn personally, simply for the pickings if we get a transfer budget (nzog, roddalega, jones)

Blackpool rode their luck they where only ever at most 2 season wonders i suppose they can feel a little hacked off at not getting another season in the top flight.

The other 2 not bothered about really.

gutted for blackpool to be honest! Glad brum went down and west ham have become a sham since sullivan and gold took over!
Take seb larsson off brum on a free
go for demba ba and mark noble from west ham
Charlie Adam from blackpool(moyesys brother is his agent after all)

agreed mate, I know some west ham fans and they're sound. Probably my most liked/least hated London club purely due to their fantastic supporters.
