I have a bad feeling it will be Newcastle
Sounds like a good feeling, imo.

Which Premiership team do you think will 'surprise' people and be relegated?
- Thread starter Murray 17
- Start date
Sounds like a good feeling, imo.

Yes, Spurs weren't known to let in goals were they?
Even when they won matches, they'd ship goals like it was Christmas.
I can see Liverpool dropping badly this season, though not relegation material.
The easy choices are Bolton, Fulham, and Blackburn to do poorly.
Stoke and Hull have to be down there somewhere, too.

If it was just the club I would agree with you, but as Kev is there, if the worst happened, I would fear for his sanity.

A different kind of pasty
But he's half the reason I want them to go down!

Middlesbrough are on borrowed time. They play dire football and will not be missed.

Fair enough, I Have a bit of a soft spot for him. It's Ashley and Wise I can't stand.

I think Bolton will struggle but I think Boro might suprise a few people, they ended on a high and if they keep Downing and Alves started to find the net.

I maintain that the 3 who came up are the 3 most likely to get relegated.
This is good news for a number of teams. Unlike previous seasons where the likes of Sunderland, Bolton, Birmingham and West Ham have been promoted and thrown enough cash at players and managers to stay up none of the 3 promotees this team have done that.
However, for the sake of this thread I'll put forward a name who, ordinarily, would get relegated with the sort of low points total they'll end up with - Blackburn.
It remains to be seen but I concur that Ince is out of his depth. The fact that the best players have left or are unsettled, plus the fact he thinks the likes of Robbie Fowler and Paul Robinson will help, are bad signs.

Cant see any "surprises" I would love Boro to do one but are probably still stronger - just- than the newly promoted teams,Blackburn simularly.

I agree with many on here and think that Blackburn will go down. West Brom are ok but not good enough to stay up and the other team will be Stoke. Olofinjana and Kitson are not bad signings, but they cannot be relied on. Have a feeling that Hull will be the surprise success of this season. Gardner, Boateng and Geovanni are good signings and I think Phil Brown is a decent manager.

That'll be the Hull that just lost 4-0 to Crewe, then?
Gardner's not a bad player but the others are just there for the pay cheque.

I'm starting to think it will be Blackburn. Signing Robbie Fowler and replacing Brad Friedel with Paul 'Misses' Robinson is not the way forward in my opinion.
