I agree we should be higher i dont necessarily agree that we will get play offs but there is no way we will not be top half with he quality we have. The division is so unpredictable, and i agree there are a lot of teams who will be in and around there. But one team i still rate is Cardiff for me they have a great manager, and for once they do not have a team full of stars, they have a team of good championship players, i feel Don Cowie could be an absolute bargain as will couple of the other players the have signed.
Weren't we among the relegation favourites the last time we got promoted to the Prem? This sort of rubbish is irritating, but in reality the more they churn it out the better it is for us. Just think of the pressure there will be in the West Ham dressing room where everyone is telling them they will walk it.
For me its not surprising that they have us down so low. They always think we will do badly. This year I am very happy with our current squad and I expect us to surprise a few people. Low expectations mean better odds, gotta get the ticket money back somehow
West Ham...Leicester...Leeds...Cardiff...Forest...&c - they've got all the pressure. We have a young and hungry team which wants to play attacking football and not leak goals. A manager who knows what he's doing. A team spirit. All to play for. COYT [Edit: A team that's underrated by the vast majority]
personally i am happy with 16th..anything else is a plus..2012/13 is our season...we are crap northerners anyway!! and for what it is worth, I hope leicester go up cos their free fall and liquidation will be sweet. derby are my outside bet...
Whenever you do one of these prediction tables... First thing you put in the team you support, then you put the teams you like or are easy on in good postions, the teams you dislike or are being harsh on in bad... then you fill in the gaps with the rest. I'm willing to bet we were part of the rest, and that he's a forest fan.
