You can't necessarily say because Leicester were mediocre this season that they'll be mediocre again next season.
You have a good manager, and are sure to buy some new players before next season.

You're welcome to do well in the Championship as long as you don't beat Leicester
So you don't mind Nicki if Charlton win promotion getting all the remaining 122 points as long as we get nothing from Leicester?
As long as Leicester stay up, then nope
I think Leicester will have a better time of it in 2007/8 than they did this season just gone.
But then this is from the forumite who confidently predicted Leeds would be promoted this season.
Oh dear.......
Well, you were half-right about Leeds. They certainly aren't playing in the same division next season....

I didn't think we had any money...
I currently think its safer to ask how the "canaries" are doing in Norwich (not normally a conversation that is greeted with a smile) than to mention Football anywhere Elland Road.
Sorry Barry, but as a life-long Spurs supporter, I was hoping the Charlton match would go the way it did.

I will look forward to Tranmere (nearest team to where I live) beating Leeds (where my office is) next season. But my heart is with Liverpool
I hope Leyton Orient beat Leeds next season, like when they beat Forest at the City Ground this season.
Or even Lewes if they reach the first round again and meet them in the FA Cup

Blackburn drew - they can't overtake us 
(unless they beat us by 4 goals...)
We only need to draw and hope Bolton and Portsmouth both lose to qualify for Europe!

What happens if you win?
We'll qualify as long as Bolton or Tottenham lose to Aston Villa or Man City respectively.
We're only 1 point behind Bolton, but our goal difference is far superior to their's, so a draw could be enough, as long as other results go our way.
And we've got a slightly better goal difference than Tottenham, despite being 3 points behind them.

There are all sorts of twists and turns for European places and relegation. As it stands, Sheffield United are going down 
And Bolton will be in Europe as they and Reading are drawing *hopes Villa score*
Surprising Charlton managed to score at Anfield of all places, and at the wrong time of the season...
Still, Reading can take credit that they've managed to score 3 times at Anfield this season in the Carling Cup, which is half the amount Liverpool have conceded at home in the Premiership all season!

What score do you want?
I'm exhausted. We were watching Sheff Utd v Wigan, and willing Wigan to hold on with ten men. I feel sorry for Sheffield Utd, though. They looked certain to stay up a little while ago.

I wanted Villa to win, but I can't complain with 8th position It's a shame Sheffield United have gone down... I think Rob Hulse's injury at Chelsea has cost them. But I think them and Charlton can bounce back.

Look what I found amongst the cobwebs.
I got two Prem relegations right but that was about it. Didn't we do well with the Prem title race Barry?

Barry's Prediction:
I did a similar post earlier, but I'll put my predictions in a slightly better form here.
Premiership : 1. Chelsea, 2. Arsenal, 3. Liverpool, 4. Manchester United
18. Manchester City, 19. Middlesbrough, 20. Sheffield United (Aston Villa should be OK I feel with O'Neill as manager, Everton I think will just survive).
Championship : 1. Crystal Palace, 2. Leeds United, Plymouth Argyle up through play offs.
22. Sheffield Wednesday, 23. QPR, 24. Colchester United.

My predictions for those teams that will go up to the Premiership: I think Leeds should do it, and I have a feeling Preston and Wolves could also join them. As for relegation from the Premiership, I'll say Watford, Aston Villa and Sheffield United will go down.
I'm going to try out my luck and say that Leyton Orient will follow Southend into the Championship.
Most of my predictions were very inaccurate I'm going to try out my luck and say that Leyton Orient will follow Southend into the Championship.
