Because next season you will realise quite how weak the Championship was this season.
I had to endure the victory parade today, everybody out with joy on their faces with there flags and shirts beeping horns, it made me angry and annoyed that for the first time in my 23 years of exsistance on this Earth, Reading FC are better than my beloved Ipswich Town FC

It's obviously a bit hard to take for you OJC living down there - but all said and done Reading have simply been a Class Act in this dvision this season..and have probabaly been the "best" Champions to be promoted for a good long while ...noe of this promotion on tha aback of several boring 1-0 wins like previous "champions" (coughs) narwich , Sunderland etc...Reading did it in style !!
But they will struggle next season - unless there is one hefty financial backer behind them !

i think they'll do ok. firmly midtable without threatening neither the top nor relegation places

I thought they would struggle, then I saw a game between Charltown and Middlesborough in the FA Cup, and the football on display that night was dreadful, if they can at least match that then they'll probably stay there.
