Next seasons top ten
Hi Guys and girls
Ive been busy and finding it difficult to post as much as i once did,nonetheless here is the annual guess the top 10 for the forthcoming season. There has been some major activity in the markets and with the Birmingham sides really attrackting some big names ,on and off the field.Wolves using millions on one player and of course the top clubs coming Down with serious Money.This is of course no guarantee for sucess but will greatly enhance their chances of making a good go at the top six at the very least.
Coupled with the fact the two Sheffield sides are back in the championship seemingly splashing the Cash.
Leeds Reading Villa scum Derby and others in the mix from last year will all think they should be in with a shout at the top six at the very least.
As I always write its a very difficult League to get out from and year on year it gets harder....I see no difference this forthcoming season.
Mick seems to be buying the type of players we need,goals from the midfield,out and out striker pace on the wings,a right back etc etc but will it be enough? bloody hope so but we will see.
So come on with only weeks to go lets for fun have a prediction of NeXT seasons top ten and as usual it will be put up halfway and near the end of the season to spark a little debate.
Have a great summer where ever you find yourselves and see tou in the new season.
I will have a go in a week or so, so no copying Bluemike
All the best PBB

#1 Sunderland
#2 Middlesbrough
#3 Aston Villa
#4 Norwich City
#5 Sheffield Wednesday
#6 Cardiff City
#7 Ipswich Town
#8 Derby County
#9 Millwall

I like your optimism SJ but I can't see us so high, though of course I hope I'm wrong.

Re: Next seasons top ten
Just in the door from Newcastle. Taking my daughter and boyfriend there to catch their flight early to some Med Island. Wired from the coffee, so let's see what that produces here......
1. DERBY COUNTY (this has to be the season after years of spending!)
2. HULL CITY
3. ASTON VILLA
4. FULHAM
5. NORWICH CITY
6. SUNDERLAND
7. SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY
8. READING
9. MIDDLESBOROUGH
10. Q.P.R.
Ipswich Town around 12th this season, so it's an improvement.
Villa v Norwich play off final. Villa go up.
If any of the above happens, I'm a fkn genius.
Let me hear your thoughts, PBB.

Re: Next seasons top ten
As usual a good shout Marko, and I can't see anything weird about it. As you know there is always a surprise and for me it's Derby as top club, I know they like others are throwing cash around but I still think they will struggle to perform all season through.marko69 wrote:Just in the door from Newcastle.

I will think about it and make my own predictions soon but it's anyone's guess.
Hope your daughter has a great time on holiday, I myself am off to Hungary for a week next weekend. Have a great summer.

Re: Next seasons top ten
Top ten - too much work to think about.
Town 11th -12th - be good season to be in top ten. Better squad than last year - so reason to be optimistic.
Mick's last season - so hopefully he leaves us in a good place to crack on.
NCFC - 8th (just hope this new German uber-coach turns out to be a limp bratwurst).

10. WOLVES. No major suprises with my guess, i cant see US above 13-15 place but we Will see. The parachute clubs have a great chance of going straight back up ,and unlike last season i see at leaset tro going up. Sheffield United May suprise AS Barnsley Mighty. Lets hope im Way OFF and Mick gest the team punching above Their weight.

Holy sh*t, have I missed something with Middlesborough? Have they bought the Barca front 3 or something similar?

Fancy a go, this will resurface around the middle of the season and at the end just for a bit of banter, laughs.

Re: Next seasons top ten
Sunderland let me down badly, promotion favorites now looking towards League One, would never have envisaged such a drop away last summer.
Thought Derby and Cardiff would be on the verge of the play-off zone, (but) they're looking more equipped for automatic promotion. Still every chance ourselves can reach seventh position, the league still has a course to run. Would obviously hope for improved status but in truth it's unlikely we'll be involved when the time arises.

Re: Next seasons top ten
I'm going with any of the midlands clubs mentioned not sure of the final positions but I think they will dominate the top 6. Ipswich..... maybe 10th or 12th a rebuilding year I would venture to say
