    With the £150M tv deal from Premier League clubs i think we will be fine.

    Enjoy the Dons next year mate.

    I hope he doesn't resign as well.

    I'd like him to re-sign though.

    I've not seen any indication of him either signing or leaving.

    What has been made clear is that he'll be give time to speak to his family and decide what he wants to do.

    Personally think he'd have made a point of saying thankyou yesterday if he wanted to go.

    What's strange about? I've seen a fair bit of Bournemouth, Watford and Norwich and, unless they make a lot of changes or we lose a lot of key players and don't replace them, they are miles below us in quality, as were you, QPR and Burnley.

    We're MUCH better than even our final league position suggests. Unfortunately it took us an age to settle, and for Nige to crack the right formation/team. But when we achieved it, we swept aside everyone but Chelsea (and Sunderland, but we got the result we wanted). If it had happened early, we'd have finished top ten easily.

    Un
    West Ham have been dropping like a stone. Almost every side that's sacked Alladyce has ended up relegated shortly after.

    Palace should be OK, but they will need to hold on to key players, which they may struggle to do as they aren't a big club.

    Newcastle and Villa will continue to struggle for the foreseeable.

    Really my friend? According to this, we are underachieving.

    http://www.soccerstats.com/attendance.asp?league=england

    Where's you unbiased facts to prove ortherwise?

    You can add Norwich to that list of teams with shorter odds. So that's four. Last time I ckecked, only three teams go down.

    You need to stop letting your anger and bitterness make a tit out of you.

    That is a total load of tosh , again you lot have a complete biased opinion , again it's all about opinions and again it's going to make me look biased but it you had to make a team out of both of our squads it would have more hull players in it than Leicester

    Yes it's my opinion. You calling my post total tosh is also your opinion, and not fact.

    I said all season that Burnley, QPR and Hull were the worst three sides, and guess what? I was right. So I'll stick to my opinion rather than yours, if that's OK.

    Regarding that nonsense about a team from our combined squads, that's laughable. The only player of yours I'd touch is Dawson, and I'm not convinced I'd have him in my starting line-up.

    You name all these sides which may be correct because some of them seem to struggle every season but I see nothing from Leicester to suggest that they won't be any different from the above .You have survived one season job done , you now have to survive a second season to suggest you will be looking higher up is the views of a Leicester fan only .

    You went on a great run playing sides at the right end of the season getting a slice of luck in some games , but that won't happen every season

    Go and watch our demolition of Newcastle and QPR, plus the ease we beat Southampton and Swansea. Hell, we were the better side against Chelsea for 45 minutes.

    You beat west brom when they fluffed a hat full of chances , demolished a qpr side already relegated , and played Swansea when they had no striker or full backs

    Still not seeing the luck aspect. West Brom fluffing loads of chances implies they not good enough up front (which they're not), we'd have beat QPR anyway (Newcastle weren't relegated when we demolished them) and Swansea not having depth in squad is another symptom of them being a small club.

    I suppose every side you beat were at the full potential at the time?

    No of course not but I'm not implying we will fly up the league and shouldn't be looked at as relegation contenders like some Leicester fans are implying . Survive two or three seasons then start looking up surviving one doesn't make you world beaters , how many teams suffer second season syndrome ?

    I see your points fettis, I guess what the guys are saying is that we'll not be in the bottom 3 favourites as normally it's the 3 promoted sides. Obviously it doesn't always work like that (see ourselves and yourselves). I know what you're saying that we'll still be in the few favourites by the bookies to be just above the bottom 3 . We may finish higher we may not. I see us as a side that can push on and grow rather than go backwards depending how we recruit but it'd be crazy to make any predictions either way at this stage

    Fettis - your posts seem tinged with a little wishful thinking buddy - our last 10 games suggest that we are more likely to carry on rather than to struggle ... only time will tell of course ... but we certainly started to feel comfortable at this level ... our owners are not shy of investing unlike those at Villa and Newccastle ... there is every. reason for optimism
