    Not one person on here said that. We will be mid table I think. Many many years of work until we can even think about challenging for the prem

    Personally, I still think you will be there are there abouts come the end of the season.

    You have a decent manager & some decent players. It may take you a few games to get into the swing of what’s required in The Championship, but when you do, you’ll soon be motoring!

    For what it’s worth, in 2016/17 season Newcastle lost their first 2 league fixtures - they were Champions & promoted easily that season<cheers>

    Sorry but I don't agree. We have bought 2 players who could improve our squad Afobe and the Nigerian lad (etobe). Apart from that it's still the same squad as last season just another year older. The players who aren't up to it are Pieters, Shawcross, Fletcher, Adam, Allen, Diouf, Berahino, Then you add to this players who don't seem to get a chance Bojan and Affellay. Add to this Imbula, Wimmer. ..............well you get the point. I think we will be around 10th in the league. I really hope I'm wrong.

    They may not have been up to PL standard but they may be good enough for the Championship - once they’ve acclimatised.

    Good luck, anyway<cheers>
