We need them too, championship is going to get less and less competitive now.

Look at this season, with Newcastle and West Brom taking both auto spots, boro won't finish a million miles outside the play-offs.
With the new parachute payments I don't think it will be more than a couple of seasons until we are routinely seeing 2, or even 3 of the relegated sides going straight back up again.

Football really will be dead when that happens.
