    <laugh> Shocking. You could get work as a TV pundit.

    Sunderland don't look to have improved but with Defoe that have a chance of goals
    Villa still look poor and have no Benteke (not that he was available for much of last season) and the newness of Sherwood has gone away
    Norwich have bought badly and despite the high regard of their new manager I think they will just avoid the drop
    Newcastle have enough to stay up, despite their new striker being a referee's favourite
    WBA have Pulis and he generally builds a decent defensive unit
    Watford - can't see much from them - too many new players - the promotion team must be a little annoyed at the huge new intake
    Leicester have made a good start but they will be there or thereabouts

    I think Sunderland, Watford and Villa will drop down with Leicester Bournemouth and Norwich pushing them down

    Bournemouth - A few more injuries and they are in big trouble.
    Watford - scatter gun approach signing to many players.
    Norwich - Signings don't look great and not much fire power.

    I will bet on one of those clubs staying up this year. Do you want to invest a cheeky £50 against me?

    You beat me to it, I was just about to make him a similar offer. The chance of all three promoted teams going straight back down are minuscule.

    I think what you are saying is...you usually lose bets.
    You were quite confident until the money was mentioned.
    Let's re-visit this in May to see is
    A) Your original prediction was right and you have lost out on £50
    B) Your original prediction was wrong and you have saved yourself £50.

    Either way, you are wrong but i will share a drink with you. <cheers><cheers>

    Seriously, if you think all 3 will go down back it.
    You can get 50/1 for that bet off SKYBET.
    It must be worth a quid at least.

    To be fair to Lewis I was offering evens which are **** odds.
    The bookies make a fortune from these type of bets.
    There is usually one team that surprises everyone.
    It should have happened last year. If City had beaten Lester home and away (which they should have done) then Lester would have gone down IMO.
    If is a funny word.
    If I was married to Claudia Shiffer (however you spell it), I would spend less time on here.
    If the moon was made of cheese then the cost of transportation would make it too expensive to buy.

    I think I need a lie down.

    Just read that Mings is out for the season and could miss the start of next season too with a knee injury, eerily similar to Snodgrass

    How did a Max Gradel thread become a Relegation thread?
    Chinese Whispers?

    I wonder what odds you'd have got with an accumulator on West Ham's first four games: win at Arsenal, lose to home to Leicester and Bournemouth, win at Liverpool. By my reckoning you're looking at close to 500/1.
