®️⚽ Rainbet EFL English Championship League 2025/2026

Nothing really special for me in terms of coaching changes (or are they still proper managers in Championship I wonder).

Wrexham get to meet Saints first too, I will be tuning in to that one. Their star striker is as expected, the first casualty (already wasn't getting games despite being the player face of Wrexham) so it will be a new team out. Dibling, to my surprise, is still with Saints. Time for whipping.

Mullin? Didn't see it, but expected it TBH. He didn't play much in the 2nd half of last season as well.
He was playing there in the National league, Championship will be a huge step for most of them. To be fair - Parkinson is doing well by forcing them out.

It is a tough call, they surely bonded a lot, but the time for cuts is now. Will be weird for Parkinson though when it will happen to him too - and it will if Wrexham wants to keep improving.

This looks like a battle between rich and poor, in Championship standards

It is time to talk team budget, market value and transfers for next season in Championship.
Southampton and Leicester City are clubs with biggest market value, and Charlton Athletic with Wrexham are at the botton according to Transfermarkt website.
You can use the same website to see all the latest player transfers and changes.

Yeah Mullin. Not following much but I probably will from this season. Always sad to move on to better things, but that's professional and as long as everyone saw it coming and had conversations about it, it's fine.

It will feel weird though because of the breakneck speed they're going up.

Will be very, very interesting in this high turnover league -- only Portsmouth has retained its manager, so we know already all teams (not counting promoted ones) aren't afraid to pull the kill switch. Value (not money) is already statistically proven to improve points performance, so let's see if clubs overpay or continue to find good value. (I would immediately port over 2nd Bundesliga talent if I were in upper echelon Championship budget)

It is interesting to see that gambling companies are still allowed to be main shirt sponsors in EFL Championship next season, unlike in Premier League.
We have Unibet, CopyBet, bet365 confirmed but maybe some new partnership deals will be revealed in weeks ahead of us.
Maybe that is because main sponsor of EFL competitions is Sky Bet.

Quote from: notblox1 on July 10, 2025, 10:55:32 PM

Pretty positive the ban in Premier League comes from next season 26/27.

Kinda paradoxical when you think about it...they can still be sleeve sponsors, betting partners, or whatever other main sponsor with sideline signage and in-stadium advertising boards, just not front-of-shirt sponsors. It's like trying to deal with a problem, but not really. It's stupid.

It would be funny if one of those gambling companies had their EFL-sponsored team win a promotion next season, i'd imagine their front of the shirt contract would be automatically terminated due to the ban in the Premier League.

Yes, there are two more seasons to be played and then they have to remove it as main sponsors on shirt.
There is no such announcements for EFL Championship for now, but issue can happen for clubs that qualify for Premier League.
They would have to make change of sponsor and make only one year short term deals.

Fresh news coming from EFL Championship.
Leicester City appointed former QPR boss Marti Cifuentes as new manager.
There are no news if Ruud van Nistelrooy is going to stay in Leicester with some new function or move to other club.

Wrexham is making waves in Championship after they want to sign 33 years old former Manchester United midfielder Christian Eriksen!
But they are not stopping there and they have plans to hire more players in different positions, and they even dream about Premier League promotion.
Rise of Wrexham started few years ago after actor Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney purchased the club in 2020.
Can they do the impossible thing and qualify to EPL? Shocked

Quote from: notblox1 on July 25, 2025, 08:59:36 PM

Do you think signing Cristian Erickson will help the team?
These players are worthless in their former teams and age is not by there side anymore.
I think signing younger starts will be more beneficial to the team because old players are not that useful anymore, most teams prefer young talented players. And if they can be able to get young players ton perform well, they can make a lot of money from them if they manage to sell them to higher teams another price.

Quote from: notblox1 on July 25, 2025, 08:59:36 PM

Still a decent player in EPL, I'd say acquitted himself quite well in comparison with half of his teammates. No idea how he'll fit in to Wrexham but I suppose they're getting him for his experience and mentality in the dressing room.

Winning promotion, as I've said before, while not really able to further extend spending? That would actually be the first underdog achievement for this club if it happens.

Quote from: morvillz7z on July 11, 2025, 12:11:01 AM

I think the sponsorship contract includes this clause, something like "if, under pressure from external circumstances, it is impossible to fulfill contractual obligations, then the contract is considered voluntarily (without penalties) terminated."
By the way, I would like to know if some gambling company buys a club and renames it (in honor of itself), how will this be resolved? Grin

There is such an example in the Russian championship, but gambling companies are not being persecuted there yet, so there are no problems.

Quote from: buwaytress on July 26, 2025, 11:54:27 AM

It is not a done deal yet and I think Erickson will try to stay in Premier League or one of the top leagues first.
I am monitoring TransferMarket for latest news.

Remember that one of the owners is famous Hollywood actor, and man can have underdog dream story Grin

Of course I'm in! Even signed up and deposited at Rainbet (for some godforsaked reason I felt an itch to try my luck hahaha). Sent you my tx and Rainbet username already, hope Strongkored and others finally decide to throw in their hats!

Most importantly, I'm looking forward to taking everyone's money here. Free tip for everyone, please make sure you do this, Wrexham to win 90% of their games.

And plus joining this pool you guarantee full awarness about having always ton of games to predict on superbru.

Your tab on Superbru full of "5458754875 picks needed" only this tournament give you that.

Offcourse that I'm in! Cool to see new names joining sponsorship of pools, I just made an account there. I must admit that during first season of Championship poool I didn't become expert of this league and I haven't achieved anything. So, I don't set big goals for upcoming season. If I will win yellow cap, that would be good already.
Going to pay on the 1st of August when signups on EPL pool will begin that I wouldn't have to connect my wallet multiple times.
