    We are half way through the season, so it's time to predict the ups and downs.

    Who do you think will be celebrating and commiserating in May?


    My predictions are:


    Premier League:

    Champions League - Man Utd, Man City, Chelsea, Arsenal
    Relegated - Reading, Wigan, QPR



    Championship:

    Auto - Leicester, Middlesbrough
    P-offs - Cardiff, Crystal Pal, Hull, Leeds
    Relegated - Peterborough, Bristol City, Barnsley



    League One:

    Auto - Sheff Utd, Notts Co
    P-offs - Doncaster, Tranmere, windon, MK Dons
    Relegated - Hartlepool, Bury, Shrewsbury [and it pains me to say it] Pompey



    League Two:

    Auto - Gillingham, Pot Vale, Bradford
    P-offs - Rotherham, Bradford, Southend, Northampton
    Relegated - Barnet, Aldershot

    As it's a bit quiet on here at the moment I just thought I'd bump this up as it was posted at Christmas.

    What are your predictions?

    Happy New year Devo........to be honest mate, the only thing I wish to celebrate is new ownership and stability, staying up would be a complete bonus too.......but highly unlikely!

    For the prem.......I would love to see WBA do well and push on to keep a champions league spot........and would like to see Harrys bunch plus Villa and the stripey lads next door relegated :wink: although I think they will do ok for the second half and be safe :emoticon-0149-no:

    In the championship........not really bothered except would love to see brighton promoted.......but I dont think that will happen

    As for our L1........again, not really too interested who goes up.......or who comes down with us...........I, like many, just want our club sorted :smile:

    PUP (which ever league)

    Prem League:

    I want:
    1)Chelsea 2)Man City 3)Man United 4) Arsenal/Everton

    Relegated: 18) Aston Villa 19) QPR 20) Southampton

    I want Chelsea to win the Prem, as they're a London based team! However I actually predict the Premier League will finish as follows:

    1) Man United <grr> 2) Man City 3) Chelsea 4) Arsenal/Spurs

    Relegated:

    18) Southampton 19) Aston Villa 20) Reading

    It should be interesting to know who we think will win the cups this year. FA Cup is still to early to tell- although I imagine Chelsea will, as per usual, win it again!

    As for the League Cup- I predict Chelski will win it- potentially by a record margin for a final! (v Bradford!) Anyone know the record for a winning margin in a cup final? I reckon if it's only 10 or less- that game could break a new record! Chelsea 14-0 Bradford is my predo <laugh>

    Although I'd love a League Two side to play in the Europa League next year! (The Bantams would have to beat Chelski or Swans to get there though- seems unlicly! <ok>

    Going by the semi-final first leg results, we really could have the unlikely Capital One Cup final between Swansea City and Bradford City

    I think it could be a good game to watch but a half empty Wembley is not good.

    At least there would be a seat for every real supporter and not a load of corporate liggers.
