Not sure if it has been covered before, sorry if it has, but what was the papers prediction of where we would finish up this year. Googled a bit and found that the Telegraph predicted 13th and the Guardian bottom half of the table. Does anyone else have other info. Just goes to proove how little the press pundits know. No doubt most had West Ham as being champions or at least automatic promotion.

I think fourfourtwo had us down around 12th-13th

 

was looking at it the other day, they had Leicester finishing second I think

 

in every game I've played on fm12, we've only ever finished bottom half and the first year, and languish as a consistently mid table side. and lallana always goes to villa for around £6m. we are **** in fm12.

managed to find the full fourfourtwo list online, and it's pretty rubbish

 

1. West Ham

2. Leicester

3. Middlesbrough

4. Reading

5. Birmingham

6. Nottingham Forest

7. Leeds

8. Ipswich

9. Burnley

10. Southampton

11. Cardiff

12. Brighton

13. Blackpool

14. Hull City

15. Portsmouth

16. Millwall

17. Bristol City

18. Derby

19. Coventry

20. Crystal Palace

21. Doncaster

22. Peterborough

23. Watford

24. Barnsley

 

it's gotta be one of the hardest leagues to predict, and much of it is based on Sumner hype. I've also been saying all year how close the bottom half of the premier league and the top half of league one is, on the day most championship teams could push a mid table premier league team to extra time and penalties.

Frankly, I don't know what Sting's opinion on the fortunes of English football clubs has to do with it...
