Last year I managed odds of 28-1 on relegation, and thought I was doing alright for it until that Hughes chap turned up.
This year I got 8-1 with Betfair, which have shortened since.
Historically, the team that finished one above the relegation zone has struggled the following season and more often than not been relegated.

i know it's all doom and gloom on here, and rightfully so.
So what sort of players should we be looking for in the championship?
I think it's clear we are going to see a big change of personnel once the rats desert the ship, so who would be realistic targets for the championship assuming we go down? (I.e. not players we would be looking at if we stayed up)

Southampton have not had a shot so far. Their passing accuracy is down at 65%. They have only had two touches in the West Ham penalty area.
Mark Hughes will not be happy.

So it's not just the fans on here that think this then. The national press say our players are a disgrace.
