    could be the whipping boys next season for me!

    They have quality, but selling De Vries, Taylor & Pratley has been the wrong thing to do imo.

    When we played them I thought Pratley & De Vries were in their top players, I know this season Pratley wasn't but De Vries was one of the top in the league?! I can't believe he wouldn't sign a decent contract given that they have just been promoted.

    I honestly believe that if they don't make some shrewd signings then they will be relegated by a margin...

    I was surprised about De Vries, especially since he won't be guaranteed first team at Wolves, who'll probably be down there with Swansea...

    Wolves have the money to offer double the wages he'd get at Swansea.

    As for Swansea, it will depend on Sinclair and Borini how well they do. If they do well, they will both bought by bigger clubs in January. If they don't do welll, Swansea will get relegated a la Derby.

    Loan them Forster!

    I reckon they'll be the whipping boys too though. They play great football but don't score enough, and although they have a good defence, I feel it won't be as solid. The Liberty will still be a really hard place to play next season though

    That's the thing, I can't see them doing that well, the defenses are the main difference between the championship & premiership imo and they will find it so much harder to score and losing their goalkeeper for me means they will concede more unless they get some quality in...

    Nice plan, we'd get to see him at Prem level to see if we should keep him or not.

    I think they will struggle too. But then nobody really gave Blackpool a chance and they nearly survived.

    Just a note though - Sinclair was on loan, have they definitely got him again next season?

    I think Borini could be a class player in a year or two

    Loan them Forster, Tavernier, Kadar, LuaLua, Donaldson, Guthrie, Ranger, Gosling, Airey, Abeid, Perch and Sameobi. If they still go down at least Newcastle Reserves will have had top-flight experience. <ok>

    They signed Sinclair a year ago, not just recently.
