Bookmakers rarely get things completely right in their odds ahead of a new season. They didn't have us anywhere near the bottom three and in the end we just survived.

Last time I think they had Luton to struggle and they ended up being promoted. Would have got good odds on Leicester being relegated from the PL as well.

I don't think the three that will come down will all finish in the top three. One or two of them will struggle to adapt as is often the case.

I honestly don't see us being in a relegation fight either. By the start of September when the transfer windos closes, I think we will look like a decent Championship team.

Can also see Coventry doing better than the bookies predict. Made some good signings and invested the Gyokeres money well.

That list made me chuckle to be honest and looks quite a lazy piece of work, as it is no reflection of the work our club and others have done over the seasonal break...

I don't expect Huddersfield to be relegated either with their secret weapon (Neil Warnock) intact...

I would be very survived if the three Premier League relegated teams are the ones to go back up either... :ayatollah:

That list doesn't include the 3 teams the bookies think will be relegated.

I don't think it will prove to be far wrong; although I do believe we should be two or three places higher.
It's all a matter of opinion at this point.

We will shock a few if we get off on the right foot, our forward line is very menacing .

Best Weeds, win at home were on our way.

Can't wait for us to put 4 on Leeds and hear them back track.
Its happening.

Aslong as we beat last season for me that's all I'm hoping for tbh being realistic anything else is a bonus imo. Although come January if the current manager (aka) scapegoat role is still here then we shall see what happens in the market with where we are in the table :bluescarf:

This does seem to me they are making a judgement on last season.

Until we started to bring in these new signing I would have put money on us going down. I'm like most and that being if we avoid relegation then that will be a good campaign. These first 10 games will tell us if we are going to do this comfortably or not.
