Badger Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 Wigan Watford. Two out of three relegation places taken, only one to avoid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 I think Wigan are gone, so looking forward to facing Villa and Sunderland next year. In a truly selfish mindset, I'd like to see Watford or Palace up, as they will be the weakest. For E.g - watford will lose 60% of their loan players, and they're unable to make any signings in the transfer window due to an embargo. Could be embarrassing for them if they do actually make it up.

ericb Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 Watford, Palace and Wigan. All three of them are weak and will go down. Also living in london these days means that Watford and Palace would be easy aways to make it too. Personally got a feeling that if Brighton come up they'll do ok, the set up there now is looking pretty good and with the extra cash from TV i could see them pushing on and doing ok.

Wiggles31 Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 Watford - like the football they play and will be a good addition to the PL. Wigan - they'll go down next season anyway. Sunderland - they are just awful and are in decline ala Bolton and Wolves and will struggle next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Err...you can only have one of Watford and Palace. If they have suddenly made it "4 up, 4 down" then maybe Saints aren't safe after all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Diamond Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 Sunderland, Villa and Palace. Palace, six easy points and a nice away day for me, and then anyone but Wigan. Thoroughly bored of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Garrett Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 Brighton as never been there before. Would quite like Wigan to stay up, good away day, and cheap tickets! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saints_is_the_south Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 Watford. Great away day, and they'll go down for sure. Wigan, because they play better football than half the dross in the bottom half of the PL, but will probably be down there again, certainly with no Martinez. Villa - I like what Lambert is doing there, building a young team and again play some decent stuff at times. Sunderland down for me. Roma are my 2nd team, so it goes without saying that I absolutely despise Di Canio and I would love to see him go down, because he is Laziale and after all the media love in over his first 2 wins.

Shroppie Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 Would like to see Villa and Wigan stay up. Lambert has done well with a young team and recovered from awful early results. Wigan play decent football and have spirit. Sunderland is a dross town with a dross team and a manager I dislike with some intensity. Don't ever want to go there again. Would be fun to see Brighton come up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersonic Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 Anybody but Sunderland...complete dross And their manager is a loon don't worry, they'll be gone next season.

I'd rather like Wigan to stay up and wouldn't mind rekindling our rivalry with Brighton. Indifferent between Sunderland and Villa really. I want Sunderland to stay up so I can go there next season, and Wigan because they've got fewer resources than Villa. In terms of the playoff winner, either Palace or Watford. Just not bloody Poyet's Brighton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colinjb Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 I hope Wigan stay up, a great away day (mainly due to the accomodation, but their fans really are quite friendly and humble, ignore the few stupid kids at the canal bridge.) Villa is also convenient, but I would like to see them taken down a peg or two. Sunderland will be shambolic next year.... On balance, keep the black cats up and allow Watford to join them... will allow an away day with the in-laws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpturner Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 I don't want any of them to be relegated - but as one of them has to go then Villa. Sadly, however, Wigan will not get enough points to stay up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kraken Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 I'd prefer it if Brighton stayed down. Their fans seem like a bunch of choppers. Plus with a 30K stadium now they're less likely to be relegation fodder. Palace up ideally (but it won't happen); so Watford to beat Brighton in the playoffs.

Like your thinking, didn't realise that about Watford. If not them, Brighton would be amusing just to see if they revive their weird obsession with us like the league 1 days. Sunderland to go down, truly dreadful place. The bottom half of the Prem looks like it will be even worse in terms of quality than this season whatever happens so really hope it isn't going to be an issue for us.

SNSUN Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 I like what Villa have been doing lately - their young players have finally gelled and they have good attacking talent. So Villa. I like the way Wigan go about their football, and their never say die spirit they've shown in recent weeks too. So Wigan. I like Palace in general, it's one of the few away grounds I've visited and they have overachieved this season. They'll also be the easiest of the play-off trio to beat next season! So Palace. I care not for Sunderland really, I think they've woefully underachieved this season. Watford have used tons of loans all season, it's worked for them but I like teams to have a family of players of their own, not borrowed from abroad. And finally Brighton, whose fans and manager irk me. It'd be good to have a derby of sorts next season, but I prefer Palace. None of this will happen though, bar Villa staying up. I think Brighton will go up, although them in the final with Watford would make for a good game anyway, and of course it's Wigan who we can see going down.

krissyboy31 Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 I'd prefer Sunderland to do down but think Wigan will go on Tuesday. And Brighton to come up.

david in sweden Posted 13 May, 2013 Share Posted 13 May, 2013 (edited) difficult to quantify....some teams have taken the Championship by storm (e.g.QPR did) two seasons ago, but then struggled and eventually have " lost it ". Reading, on the other hand ....were almost unbeatable a year ago ...and look at them now. It depends what their squads looks like now, how much they can afford to spend and who they can buy in the summer. Onr thing I do know is.... that to feel safe, they'll need TWO top class / international goalkeepers. Something, I wrote about us 18 months ago. (and even suggested to NA ).. and I wasn't so wrong that time. On the strength of things now...I can't see Hull clearing it , and even less Palace, but Brighton might ..for a season. Cardiff also might survive .....after all Swansea did. Of those who might beat the drop this time around....? Wigan may survive on the last day again, BUT Sunderland have looked very poor ...as have Newcastle (unless thay buy Carroll back)..and also Norwich.....and what are Fulham doing down there? ..whatever happens, we can only hope that....as for those 27 seasons... there will always be at least THREE teams worse than we are, and who will take the drop instead.

stevegrant Posted 13 May, 2013 Share Posted 13 May, 2013 Would rather Sunderland went down, but they won't. Wigan will be gone, which is a shame as they're quite entertaining and a decent away day.

We owe Brighton after that joke defeat at the Amex last year, we dominated until El-Abd got Lambert sent off, Wigan as it will be a new ground for me and Villa as they are a decent club, Sunderland are just boring, such a long way to go as well.

Lets be honest most places are dumps, doesn't mean a decent away day can't be had out of them though. Coventry for example, is an absolute sh*thole but that was one of the best last season for me.
