Not surprising that the clubs with the biggest budgets are going up automatically

That’s why I thought the Wycombe fans leaving before their players came over were a disgrace

Aside from the obvious money element, three back to back promotions is very impressive

As easy as it is to hate them they suffered enough and the owners seem to be doing genuinely good things. Can’t believe Parkinson and his brand have football as got them up but fair play

Yeah I find it hard to believe they have managed to do so well this year, the whole brand is 1-0 wins, be ultra solid, lump and cross it to the big men, I thought it would slowly wear off over the season but somehow it has stuck and got results all year long

Have no ill will with Wrexham at all. Big club who were f*cked. Good luck to them.

I like Wrexham. They suffered for so many years in the National League. Now living the dream.

I have "issues" with a few of their players, but I agree that their fans deserve this.

I look forward to play them next season.

How can you ‘aside from’ their massive outlay on players?

It’s outrageous that’s the tactics they employ with the players they have at their disposal.

Money doesn't always equal success, they've been very impressive and consistent all season, Rotherham spent big bucks at the start of the year, even teams like Bristol Rovers spending cash, Parkinson has still three seasons in a row over long seasons got them up, that takes some doing and deserves credit

You could install a monkey as manager with that group of players and they'd get you promoted. Which is literally what has happened.

Don't have any problem with Wrexham, was happy to see them back in the FL and don't begrudge them the Hollywood backing but why do their fans "deserve" this any more than the fans of any other club?

What's the beef with Parkinson? Doesn't come across as the most affable guy and his sides aren't amazing to watch but he's now got 6 promotions to his name and took a 4th tier side to a domestic cup final. He's obviously done something right in his career.

Its not about ‘more than any other club’. Its about a big team endong up in the national league and their fans sticiing by them

How many fans do Orient take to Wembley whenever they go? Compared to how many go to games every week?
