We've a small squad, been hit with a run of injuries, if we get our strongest 11 out and are still down there, then that is a worry but once they're all fit, we should have enough but still nowhere near what we did last year. We didn't recruit good enough in the summer.

Leeds were really entertaining last season, a joy to watch and lots of goals. For me Brentford have stole that show this year, but hopefully you do enough to stay up, but I don't want Palace to go down either, so it becomes hard to choose as a neutral. Newcastle going down would be a great laugh, but it's not going to happen.

If they keep playing as they are, Villa could easily get dragged into it, Soton look like they could stay down here too. Palace are a strange one, they seem to play better than their points tally suggest.. One things for sure we need to pick up some points over the next month, as December is a bastard,fixture wise for us.

We're a hard one to call I think. Largely depends on how the two new strikers do, as long as one hits double figures then we should be okay I reckon.

Watford, Villa and Norwich our next 3 so that should show where we are after a tough start.

Palace are playing really well under Vieira, I've seen a few of there games on the box, and they've been unlucky to drop points. I think their position should be better than it is if only they could remember a game is for 90 minutes.

Why I put you down there is, last week against us, that was probably our worst performance under Bielsa and you probably should have beaten us by 4, the fact it was only 1 made me think you'll have trouble scoring all season, the same as with us, our ratio of goals to shots is woeful.
Some interesting games coming up involving the bottom 8 teams this next few weeks, as you say it may give most of us a better idea by the end of November

Oh fck, Lesta have put in a planning request to extend the stadium. Any chance Fosse has heard about this yet...
They'll have a larger capacity than Coventry, once it's built.
Nearly as big as Goodison, which Everton will be moving out of at around the same time.
