Best Teams to Have been Promoted from this league

Mon May 04, 2015 8:49 pm

Looking back at years gone and thinking what were the best teams to finish either 1st or 2nd in the league and gain promotion. Not necessarily judging their performance in the prem but if you had a league full of championship winners and runners up who would come out on top. Certain teams(for me) to stand out are Newcastle in 2009/10 with Carroll, Nolan, Coloccini, Routledge etc, QPR of 2010 with taarabt who was unplayable basically all year, Southampton in 2011 with Lallana, Lambert and Puncheon etc and obviously the Reading team with the highest ever points total.

What a super league that would be if it contained all the winners and runners up from say the past 10/12 seasons.

Would you put the Cardiff winning team up there as one the best the championship has seen?

Any others worthy?

Reading from a few years back were the best for me.

Bournemouth this season have played some superb football too.

Newcastle in recent years, they still had lots of top players and walked the league
