Thanks Ashley!

The Prem Relegation Choices

Choose THREE Teams to be Relegated in May 2016

I'm having a Thunk first.....

Post 16414~~~ should be easy to recall next Summer

Can Sunderland be relegated 3 times?

**Meini Again** · September 10th, 2015, 09:33 PM

Yes.

Include their Reserves and Academy

I was thinking of Villa's Ladies, Reserves and Development squad, plus their groundstaff eleven.... hard to choose

**victor meldrew** · September 10th, 2015, 11:51 PM

Wish full thinking would be Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool, in reality....

Norwich & Sunderland will drop the third team could be anyone of half a dozen

West Ham, Watford, WBA, Villa, Stoke or Newcastle

History suggests that at least one of the newly promoted clubs will go straight back down. I'd say that Bournemouth won't survive, after a heck of a struggle to stay up.

I think Sunderland will have no lives left. Two consecutive miraculous escapes won't become three.

And my third team to be relegated is Newcastle. There's something deeply wrong at that club.

I agree with Roger and Victor, but that means Sunderland, Bournemouth, Norwich, and Newcastle all go down, and one from WBA, West Ham, Watford, Villa or Stoke.

I also agree with a third of the wishful thinking, Sorry Greenman!

So lets freshen up the Premiership and relegate 6 teams this season, bring 2 up and reduce the load, and take four weeks off in January.

One of the above paragraphs is a bit tongue in cheek, sorry.

Why has De Gea signed a new 4 year contract (with one day of negotiation) now, and not when it was offered. We could have avoided all the nonsense with Madrid this summer. Got a proper price for him, if he really wanted to go, or possibly have a 100% start to the season, if he didn't.

Is it a Ronaldo scenario, you give us one more season and we get lots more money for you. In return we will double your wages for a year, and you can then get more when you do move!

Finally I see that Madrid have quoted a staggering £728m to PSG should they want Ronaldo

I think I've said this before "Football's Gone Mad"

Roll on 5:30 tomorrow, when Greenman and I metaphorically sit down with a glass of whatever takes your fancy, and try to watch a football match amicably. I will digitally shake your hand now GM and say lets hope we both watch a good game, and United win.

**themidlander** · September 11th, 2015, 05:51 PM

At work we have done this for several years but we are not allowed to choose any of the three promoted teams; so my three for this season are.....
Sunderland, Newcastle & Villa

**mitchspur** · September 11th, 2015, 10:55 PM

I'll tell you something for nothing!!!!

If Eriksen don't get back soon, or Harry Kane gets injured my mob are in for a long hard season.

And West Brom and Sarfampton and gonna sell us any players ever again
