I honestly believe all three promoted sides will be relegated next season...last seasons Championship was a poor division & my team finished well bottom, shows how bad we where!
Neutral perspective
Swansea - Michu is class and Swans have managed to keep him - you need a good striker in the prem as you HAVE to take those chances - Laudrup has been speaking about bringing in another striker. His signings have been excellent and his name within European football circles is worth it's weight in gold in terms of being able to attract players who otherwise would not go to the Swans. Contrary to what other have said I think the European campaign will actually be of benefit rather than a 'distraction' - for a start it must be attractive to potential signings? Prediction - I think it could well be a top ten finish.
Cardiff - it is going to be tough boys - but I really do hope you survive. The question you have to ask is - how many of the players you are going up with would get into a any of the current Premiershp sides? Wigan have just been relegated with some terrific players (by Championship standards) Al Habsi, Boyce, Figeroa, Espinoza, Moloney, McManaman, Beausejoir and Kone. Everyone of those would get into our side - what about yours? That's how big the job is facing Malky - not only does he need to recruit at that level but he also needs to meld them into a 'team' before the season starts. It's a big ask. I think all the promoted sides will face a really tough task but I certainly would like you (and Hull for that matter) to survive. Wouldn't be surprised to see West Brom struggle next season if Chelsea don't lend them Lukaku. Good luck.

Nice to see such a decisive response from Thai - what a riveting answer to your question Musty...........
Cardiff and Swansea wont be far apart in the table come next May - both will finish in the bottom half with Cardiff edging to safety before Swansea.
I've got a feeling that Swansea might hit the wall after two good seasons up there and be fighting to stay up toward the end. Just an opinion Musty.
Another reason i think they will struggle - Ashley Williams is one of their better players.
8th down - not much difference to The Championship.
Look at the teams who went down - Bolton , Blackburn , Wolves.
We are the Football League Champions - nothing to fear at all.
Though I agree I may alter my opinion depending on signings.
Some of you Cardiff fans are deluded if u think u are going to walk this league! Swansea will be between 8th and 12th Cardiff will do well to say away from bottom. Your style of play is predictable the defenders in the perm will destroy you. Also if u watch other teams player interviews about swansea they all say how hard it is to play against a team who pay that style of football (the right way) Swansea's latest form isn't as bad as it looked. The last games we played where all the champions league candidates which we gave them all a very good game! Plus we had no real striker. And the Fulham game was one of those. The jealousy runs deep on this board because no one can say a bad word about Swansea really! Owned by the fans for the fans. Unlike your club unfortunately!
You wait, we are famous world wide and respected for our style of play, this will attract better quality players than Cardiff could ever wish to have. Our club is commercially viable and sustainable, allowing us to push on and build every season. We have within our ranks 3 Dutch internationals 1 Belgium 1 Spanish 1 south Korea, come on do u think we are that weak think about it. What do you have haha perm failures and has been's we will attract better players next season. We will see won't we. Get ready to crash back to reality the attitude you have will leave you with nothing than disappointment. You are going to be trying not to get stuffed every game fact. Williams can go made too many errors this season cost us at least 10 points. My predictions. Cardiff nothing better than QPR think money wont buy you success. If you watched us u would know is only teams that dominated us this season was Everton, Chelsea away and Liverpool away every other teams we played the result could have gone either way.
