It looks like the top 4 is going to be very difficult to predict.....it seems a lot easier to get the bottom 3 While I do think that it's going to be a long season for Newcastle I don't think they will go down. Sunderland on the other hand look shocking and I fancy them to join Crystal Palace...

Cheers YV I'll give it a go!!

Appreciate your comments boss...I totally agree re di canio...did you see him smiling as Holloway celebrated palaces 3rd goal? Understand ur comments re Cardiff.....who would you replace them with in your bottom 3?

I'm sure wotever we predict somebody won't be too pleased. I do understand your choice regarding spurs not finishing top 4, and I agree there is a concern about the team gelling. I may have lilywhite tinted glasses on but I see us having a stronger squad than other teams around us. We're well...

I must be honest from the start, I don't often post on here, although I'm an avid follower. Anyway, at my local, we have our annual season prediction competition just about to start...we always wait til the transfer market closes. We have to name our top 4 and bottom 3 in the correct order...

Again very true, but if you know anything about the betting industry, it takes an awful lot of money to cut the odds from 5/2 to 1/2....maybe the masses are having a flutter or there are some shrewdies lumping on.....time will tell I guess! And hopefully they won't be so shrewd!!!

If this is how it works out I will be one very happy Spurs fan :1980_boogie_down:

True Spurf, however it is worrying that Bale hasn't said a thing.....and bookies very rarely get it wrong! Obviously I would rather Bale stayed at Spurs, but I just don't think it would be doom for us if he did go....a la Modric!!

I have to admit to being disappointed that Bale hasn't come out to say he's staying...which to me actually says a lot. He doesn't want to do a 'Modric' by demanding a transfer and sulking about it and turning the fans against him, therefore i think it's almost a foregone conclusion that he will...

I have to admit, I was disappointed we didn't get Vermaelen when we were in the running to sign him....and after his first couple of seasons, I was even more so....not this season....he's been dreadful!! Vertonghen > Vermaelen Bale > Walnutt I think the Tottenham scouts should be happy...

What are you basing this on DL??

Well it's all over now....am reasonably happy with the signings we made, would have liked to get either Moutinho or another striker as cover for Ade, so tinged with a little disappointment.....will see how we get on over the next few months before I make any rash judgments!

I honestly can't believe some of the comments that have been posted on here about Beckham.......some people are so bloody fickle its unreal....to say that he couldn't at least put in the same 'shift' as Craig Bellamy is quite frankly a joke! It's no wonder England "Team GB" never have any...

I'm sure the Al-Qaeda XI would destroy them!!!

Evra - Hey ref, that's a decent impression of Pierluigi Collina!!
