I haven't said relegation yet, but don't rule out us sailing very close to those dangerous waters.

Is it worth bringing back SRL, apparently Norwich are interested in him.

I have held back long enough this close season. As usual we are showing lack of ambition in the transfer market, leaving things to chance and will no doubt panic buy as the season kicks off. Mark my words, without bringing in a really good CB and striker we will be struggling at the wrong of the table. The European factor makes this all the more likely.

Help, you have used the 'R' word.

When did losing money ever stop them ? Avoiding bankruptcy is a way of life for them, they know that the 'country will always rally round' to bail out this piece of 'national heritage'.

Relegation Watford to go down. I don't think they will have the squad strength and they are very much a yoyoy team. Happy to take the Prem dosh and good luck to them. Leicester- They rallied late last season, but looked certain to go down at one stage. Don't think they will repeat the act. There is usually one team that on one predicts. Villa look to be in a state of chaos, but they have enough to dig themselves clear. Bournemouth may keep clear if they get a good start and strangely, I think their compact stadium may unsettle teams and give them a 'Dell like advantage'. Norwich, similarly do well at Carrow Road, have great team spirit and a decent squad, they may just stay up. I am going for Sunderland to go down this time. Going up ? I'll do that next time.

It was the failure to appoint Hoddle in 2004, after the antics of the vocal minority, that began our downfall.

Why are we waiting ? Why are we waiting ? Why are waiting......? Why, why, oh why ?

I think our main aim is the same as any club outside the top 6, simply to stay in the Premier League. Realistically, what is wrong with that ?

Exactly, people getting worked up by trolls should just not reply.

A BRLLIANT signing if we sign him, make no mistake.

Be careful or you will be forever lambasted, that is just one place above 17th !

Reality check this year. Europe will not help at all. 15th, with some part of the season in the relegation zone.

I will tell you what I think when the 'predictor' thread is started.

17th is not on the Dalekscan this year.

Troll !

Time for predicting our finish to the new season, has the thread started yet ?

Agreed. The happy clappers can dress it up however they like, but you have said it as it is.

Well, we have to plan for the future.

I wish Morgan well, he did well last season when we needed to steady the ship. The club has known fro long enough that he would go so hopefully a strategy to fill the void has been planned some time ago. Let's see.

Plus, never mention the 'R' word.

and being in Europe will make things much harder. Should have finished 8th.

We should never have moved from The Dell in the first place.

Yes, it is something we have been poor at in previous summers.

He could have been one of the best injury specialist if only he had spent more time in the treatment room.
