I'd almost hope that none of the teams with a large Irish contingent (i.e. Wolves) get promoted.
The reason i say this is that i honestly believe that the three teams promoted this season will be by far the weakest trio of teams to get promoted in recent years and will all seriously struggle in the premiership.
This sort of thing wouldnt be good for any of our lads morale.

Good point Stiofain. There's no team in the Championship that will stick it in the Premiership next season unless they buy big in the summer. Sure every single one of the top teams are doing their best to stay in the division next season by the looks of recent results; ie every top team is more than capable of getting beat by one of the strugglers - take last nights result between watford and barnsley ffs!
I'd love to see a few more Irish lads playing in the top flight BUT I dont want to see them come up, get absolutely hockied every week like Derby, and go straight back down.
The likes of Wolves and Ipswich have an awful lot of Irish lads, but there is only 3 or 4 players max, between both of those teams that would do something in the Premiership or at International level for us
