    So this season is cloming to an end and City have, most probably, missed out on the lottery of the playoffs. So just wondering who you want to play next season?

    Looks like we'll be losing Scunny and the Blunts to league 1 and losing two decent away fixtures.

    Looking at the promotion race from league 1, it looks like Southampton will go up automatically with Brighton, but i hope Huddersfield come up through the playoffs. Despite us not having a good record there in recent years, i reckon they'd bring a fair few to the KC and there's a decent away day to boot.

    Coming down from the premier league i reckon Wigan will get out of it, just. Think Wolves, Blackpool and West Ham will go down. They'll bring a good away crowd to the KC. Better than Wigan at least.

    I think Southampton and *****borough will be replacing the relegated sides, along with Brighton.

    I think Wolves, Wigan and Blackpool will come down.

    It's a pity we're losing Scunny, Sheff Utd and Preston - all good away trips and replacing them (in all likelihood) with south coast teams. I actually want Wigan, Blackpool and Blackburn all relegated purely for away-day accessibility. Hopefully Huddersfield will be promoted - I still remember the atmosphere at the KC back in 2004 during our 0-0 draw with them! I'm hopeful it will one day return.

    Wolves 1-0 down at Stoke if anyone cares.

    I like seeing big(ish) clubs relegated, so wanted to see Villa, West Ham and either Sunderland or Blackburn to come down, but I can't see any of them falling through the relegation trapdoor.

    I'm hoping for West Ham to come down and Brighton, Southampton and Bournemouth to come up.

    This would give:

    Millwall, Watford, Palace, Brighton, Southampton, Bournemouth, West Ham, Portsmouth and Reading all within easy travelling distance for us southern nancies.

    Hopefully if PUFC do come up, they continue their defensive form from this season. Any side that concedes (at least) 73 goals in the third tier isn't going to do well in the Championship.

    We might manage to win a game by more than 1 goal!

    Gutted to see 3 nothern teams going down and potentially 3 southern teams comign up. So i'm hoping Huddersfield do come up as it would be a good away day.
