Thread closed hopefully.
We've covered this already.
Burnley are currently evens to go down.
Albion 7/2 to go up.
The situation you describe (Burnley down, us up) is in reality a 7/1 shot. So 6 times in 7 Dale is better off moving.
As is every single player in our squad. Every player has a price, the trick is getting that price right and having contingencies already in place to offset their departure. Everything about the set up right now gives me confidence that the price is right and the contingencies are in place.
It's a bit early to be castigating the club for lack of ambition, as a couple have when we a) haven't sold anyone despite obvious interest and b) have added Norwood & Murray already and c) had a club transfer record bid for a player accepted last week.
Odds on Brighton being in the Premier League next year - 7/2
Odds on Burnley being in the Premier League next year - Evens
A scenario where Burnley go down and Brighton go up is 7/1 is it not?
