The championship next season

Possible the toughest it’s been in years?

Looking like Southampton and Leicester are heading down as they can’t win a game then any of forest, Everton, Leeds or West Ham could go down. Bournemouth have gone on a great run!

Then you will have West Brom, Norwich, Watford Coventry, Sunderland, Luton all potentially staying down. Potentially Middlesborough if they didn’t manage to go up as well!

As well as Sheffield Wednesday coming up who may spend some money.

I think even if we stay up at the moment we can’t sign any players for money and I think we will be down there next season even if we can stay up this year!

One of the toughest divisions in the world!

Totally agree 3 sides coming down are going to be ultra competitive as are the 3 teams coming up

Our current team will definitely be relegated next season without a major cash injection and several better players than we currently have

We say that every year ! Let’s stay in the championship this year.

Not convinced that Sheffield Wednesday will be going up. Won 1 of their last eight, one point outside the top two, only have four games to go and the top two have a game in hand over them. Ipswich are scoring goals for fun and Plymouth are getting the wins they need.

With the results Sheffield Wednesday have been getting, doesn't look like they'll be going into the play-offs in good form.

Impossible to predict who will come down from the Premier League, apart from Southampton probably. Bournemouth looked certain to go down a few weeks ago but are now six points clear of the bottom three.

I don’t think they’ll go up just another big club in the division with potentially some money to spend

At the moment, we just be happy to be in the championship…let next season worry about itself

Without investment we will get relegated.
Survival is everything, going down is not a guarantee that we will come back up.
It took years to get back last time plus we nearly went to the wall.
Investment from a new owner who knows football is needed to make up for the mistakes of the past 12 years.

First rule of successful football get a D o F who knows the game.
Get a coach who is experienced (not a cheap option).
Younger players with skill pace energy levels tactical nous.

Build a squad over 2 years improving each year.
On the 3rd year the squad should be ready with a few good loans to go for the top.
To stay up you need a squad with experienced premier players added to your promoted squad.

Dont buy rejects free transfers as no matter what league you are in YOU will get relegated eventually.

You might disagree with all this but as a City fan of nearly 60 years i am pissed off with the lack of leadership from the owners.
WE WILL BE HERE AFTER THEY HAVE GONE

Well said, Rob; all makes sense to me...!

That's a solid plan.

If we have a 3 year plan from surviving this season and then pushing for the top in year 3 I reckon we will be looking at £25m to do that. Not going to happen with this owner.

We survived last season because other clubs got points deducted.

We may survive this time because other clubs have had points deducted...

Really speaking We should have gone last season so it's a matter of time IMHO.

Well Birmingham are getting 6 points deducted next season. So that's another 2 more needed. However, I don't think that is going to be enough.

I agree that if we stay up, points deduction may save us this season but we had 53 points last season and and would have stayed up comfortably without the points deductions.

you'll not need to worry, we'll be struggling in league 1
