Yeah, lets be honest, they have half a dozen prem players in that team, some of them earning more now than they would at another team still in the EPL! The pressure is massive, but if the fail, then the price will be far higher.
Birmingham's obvious financial mismanagement may well come back to haunt them avoiding handing your books in is clearly a bad sign. Blackpool's owner pulled £11M out of the club for personal use against the wishes of the fans, just because he could, so for me Cardiff are my worthy pick to win the p/o's. A trimmed squad, careful management, a horrible mid season blip, but now hitting form at the right time, this could be the year.......3rd time lucky.
