VillaJ100 Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 I think technically it does but you can be given exemptions and have to be 'shown' to be working towards meeting the league requirements Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 To the best of my knowledge, there is no capacity restriction at all to be in the PL. To be allowed in to the EFL, you need at least a capacity of 5000 (or to work towards it within a couple of seasons, I think), so in theory you could end up with a 5,000 seater stadium in the PL, the stadium requirements in the PL handbook are limited to lots of quite specific detail for requirements of the facilities and infrastructure, but when it comes to capacity, it's just about no standing terraces, the majority of the seating being covered, and that's about it. No requirements on numbers of seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Luton’s stadium is mental, I’ve not been there myself but I know to access various parts of it the entrances are underneath and in between residential housing, proper old school stadium.

MaVilla Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 i really hope Forest get promoted via the playoffs (or autos if they are lucky). Tbh tho, i can really see Sheff Utd coming back up through the playoffs, which would be a pity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villaphan04 Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 oh the good ole days of the championship. Going through almost a whole new squad every summer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 If scorelines stay as they are then Forest will be just three points off Bournemouth in second place, and they still have to play Bournemouth, whilst also having better goal difference, so automatic promotion would virtually be in their own hands. Long way to go in the game tonight though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 (edited) Bournemouth have come from three goals down to draw level with Swansea, so no longer in Forest's hands, but still in a good position if they can hang on and win themselves. Edit the above about it no longer being Forest's hands isn't true, I made a mistake. Edited April 26, 2022 by useless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s in Forest’s hands, they have to beat Bournemouth anyway so will be then at least +2 GD on them. Even if they were level on GD, it’s still in their own hands to score more goals.

useless Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 Yes I was just going to say I made a mistake earlier, when Bournemouth were losing Forest were two points off them not three, so what I wrote still stands even given that Swansea came back to get a draw. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted April 26, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted April 26, 2022 I suspect Forest would have happily taken those two results at the start of the night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 (edited) Championship table since Steve Cooper took the Forest job. Excluding points deductions to Derby/Reading they were bottom (P8 W1 D1 L6) when he took over. Bournemouth play Forest next week. What a huge game that will be.
