'Harry say City should be in prem'

Hmmm - looking for that quote and can't find it. The closest is “Bristol City is another club with great potential. I have always said that Bristol is the area that really needs a Premier League club and Bristol City, well you look at it and it has got the stadium and everything."

...If that equates to City SHOULD be in the Premiership, then the following quotes saying the same thing about Birmingham and Nottingham Forest means they SHOULD be there too. How many more clubs are there? Are they going to expand the top flight to 40 places to accommodate them all?

Being more serious, City are a side with the potential to make the top flight, but so are the majority of Championship sides, as well as a couple of League One sides even. It's been a disappointing season as a whole, but the harshest critics are acting as though we have a God-given right to be at the top of the table.

We should have done better, but if you're telling me we should have made the playoffs, try telling one of Reading, Sheffield Wednesday, Huddersfield or Fulham why Our Great Club should be better equipped than them. For anyone saying we spent so much money, I retort, we actually made money after sales, and we didn't spend as much as many others (Aston Villa's immense spending shows that money alone isn't the answer, only a valuable tool).

I don't want to come across as accepting of mediocrity, I just think I'm a little more accepting of the realities of how competitive this league is. If we haven't achieved a playoff spot within the next three seasons then that'd be very disappointing and relegation at any point would be a complete disaster.

Harry also said his dog does the accounts.

I wouldn't believe much either Arry or the Evil Post says.

Now the season is over we are into the silly season of rumour and speculation. This is the time I really hate.

I like this time of the season. It's when all the SL haters who wanted him to sell up for the past 9 months (barring January) start insisting on him spending his own cash on players.

For some reason it really annoys me when people mention we should be in the premiership, I myself believe I'll never see us in the Premiership in my lifetime and I'm ok with it, doesn't really bother me if we never get their to be honest :emoticon-0112-wonde

It does bother me big time.

How come Oxford, Swindon, Blackpool, Charlton, Bradford, Bolton, QPR, Coventry, Wigan, Watford, Burnley, Palarse, Bournemouth, Portsmouth, Swansea, Wimbledon and now Brighton have done it - yet it has eluded us. No club has a 'right' to the prem, but with our fan base and billionaire backer we have an advantage over those examples yet apart from one season under GJ we have never got close.
Those clubs are no bigger than us - in fact they are smaller if anything.

Yes, it frustrates me to death!!!

When was Carlisle there?
 
next seasons odds will change regularly as the bookies fillup their satchels before the 2017/18 season kicks off they have 24 runners! and at least 12 of those will get big bets... but only 1 can win, sorry 2 can win the peeps that pick top team and the bookies sunning it in the Cayman isles!
 
Always interesting as we don't yet know all teams or even who will be playing in them!- Take these with a pinch of salt but its an even playing field at the moment and we are neither seen as going up or down. No guarantees of course and early days.
