Interesting question. For me I'll either still be out here in New York having extended my secondment, or I'll be back working in London, having bought a nice big place somewhere in the suburbs. It's a long way off before I need to make that decision tho. Interesting that you've brought it up as I've been giving it some thought myself recently. Maybe it'll hinge on whether I find a lady I want to settle down with for the long term out here, and whether I can stand the freezing streets and lack of interesting sports.

 

One alternative that I've been giving a modicum of consideration to is that I may take another secondment somewhere else in the world. Europe would be the most obvious, but I don't speak any of the languages to any decent degree, and the Wild Card would be an Australia / NZ option. Can't see it myself tho. If I want to be on a quiet, sunny island I'll most likely emigrate to Bermuda. Put some money on that as an outside bet.

12/11 season - Finish 4th in CCC - promotion to premiership via play offs.

12/13 season - Finish 16th in PL.

If we go up next season as champions I could see us going straight through to the Prem in one season, maybe automatic. Not a good scenario as we would then struggle in the Prem and even do a Baggies bounce. So...

 

2010 L1 8th

2011 L1 champs up

2012 CC 2nd auto up

2013 Prem 18th down

2014 CC Champs up

2015 to 20..... Prem top 10
