League Position 2011/2012

I hate to say it but I'm thinking 10th to 17th. Hope to God I'm wrong.

I agree.  We need the manager confirmed and then see what the transfer dealings are before you can judge this fully.

That having been said, I went 6th-10th.

Would be handy to know who our manager is and what players will be in the squad before predicting anything...so I'll go for anywhere between 6th and 17th at the moment.

We don't even know for definite who the manager is yet nor who we play first up!

If it is as expected McLeish then i reckon the board will give him a good transfer kitty.7th or 8th alongside Everton.

Yeah I know! No need to be so serious. Thought I'd put it up now so when the manager is sorted (not long now!)could see how the voting changes.

Top Six.   We're going to have a season like that crazy one with O'Leary where we nearly scraped into fourth.

Assuming it's McLeish in charge I've gone 10th-17th and think we'll end up lower/mid-table.  The top 7 will probably be the same teams as last year but maybe in a different order with Everton off to a better start than usual. Think Wolves, Wigan and Blackburn will struggle. Newcastle have lost Carroll and Nolan, and probably Barton and Enrique, so they'll struggle too. God knows how QPR, Swansea and Naarrich will do. That leaves us scrapping with the Fulhams/Stokes/Boltons/Sunderlands and Albions of the league for 8th-13th. That's assuming McLeish can manage to get us to score more than his average of less than a goal a game. If he can't I fear the worst. Depressing, mid-table mediocrity at best.

Newcastle; Swansea; QPR; Wolves; Blackburn; Wigan; Norwich; Sunderland; Fulham; Stoke etc.

Think Fulham will do well with Jol in charge tbh.

Don't think we will be relegated, but it will take years to undo the damage of his appointment on and off the pitch.
