    I wouldn't be surprised if relegation didn't tip them over the edge

    and they wallowed in that league for a few seasons ala notts forrest

    surely for us the best Championship would be one with both Sheffield clubs, Leeds and Huddersfield in it?

    bumper gates, better atmosphere and four easy games to get to

    obviously with us coming above them all

    The only problem with so many local derbies is our poor record in derby games.

    Get Wednesday down, I say!

    The 3-2 against Leeds was the best game of last season imho

    Long term we are a lot better off with them down

    Short term we lose out in terms of the big gate's but in reality that is one game per season (for each team), one in 23 isn't that much.

    In the long term our fanbase will increase substantially and we will be a lot better off financially.
    Take a look at rotherham, hardly any people in barnsley support them because they are down in the lower leagues and always seem to be. A lot of people in rotherham support us, the pigs, united etc because they are in higher leagues. If Sheff Wed get relegated then we will gain some of their supporters (the floaters) and any new football fans in the barnsley/rotherham/doncaster and even sheffield will have far less 'big' sides to choose from. Doncaster, wednesday, rotherham, leeds, all in lower leagues. Barnsley and the blunts in the championship, a lot would pick us as their team and that can only be a good thing long term.
