Nonsense. We have more chance of a European place than we have of being relegated. get a grip

Yes, we could. We got dragged into a relegation battle last season, and the squad is weaker now. And we have less experience to deal with such a situation. Still, if we manage to build on yesterday's second half performance, we should float into a safe mid-table position quite comfortably. So it's too early to worry about relegation now. Hopefully we'll feel safe come February.

I had us down as about 11th to 14th at the start of season.  I don't think we'll be in a relegation battle, but if we get a bad run of injuries ala last season you never know.

No, we have one of the strongest defences outside the top 4 and in Gabby and Bent two of the best strikers. Get the midfield balance right and we'll be upper mid table.

I think that drawing at home to Barnsley shows how low you have come. Add to this a few embarrassing thumpings in Europe and you will be back to where you belong in the hinterland.

Technically yes, and if we have to field a squad like we did v QPR on too many occasions then we could suffer. Bare bones doesn't even begin to describe that subs bench.

But I think we'll be okay. Enough grit and experience there to grind out a point when needed - weaker sides than us will fold under pressure, where we seem capable of finding something from somewhere. I'm sticking to my pre-season prediction of 12th-16th.
