I haven't looked into exactly how each club is backed but Leicester were promoted, nearly went down again, and then won the league within the space of 3 seasons. Yes that is unlikely to happen again for decades but it's not exactly unrealistic to aim for the CL as a club who were once there. They were in a CL semi-final less than 20 years ago.
So, the Championship season has started **Spoilers**

Come on Charlton! Villa staying up and the blues going down would be priceless
Can Birmingham even go down? Wigan finish on 49 points if they win.
Edit: Wigan now drawing so they’ll finish on 47 if that game stays as it is.
Is it confirmed that they're actually having points deducted? Seems counter intuitive to effectively relegate Wigan considering the whole reason they're in this mess to begin with, assuming the rumours are true of course.
I put £80 on Barnsley to win this game at 11/2. I felt this would happen.
A Wigan goal now drops them back in it.

Thought they could just rest and wait for the play off. You can never rest in the championship.
That’s brutal for forest, own goal in extra time
