Shearergol Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 On current form, Hull should win that league. I've seen all of them play first hand this season, and West Brom are by far the best team in that top 6. Watford are very good at what they do (kick the ball long, kick any player in sight) so I'd love for them to miss out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NG32 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Bristol City, Hull and Stoke would all get raped in the Prem, see Derby County for details. Out of the top 6 teams only West Brom might have the ability to retain Prem status for the following season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of the top 6 teams only West Brom might have the ability to retain Prem status for the following season. Hull have the massive problem that their best player won't be with them next season. However, they'd have a massive fan base, and plenty of investment. If they really wanted to succeed in the Premiership, I think they'd give it a much better go than Derby did this season.

afar Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 It's incredibly tight at the moment, it really all depends on who runs into form in the final straight. Only Hull appear to have any form at the moment, all the rest are dropping points. West Brom have games in a hand and have probably been distracted by their exploits in the FA cup, I'm expecting them to refocus now they are out, they could come with a run. Stoke have good run in and are difficult to beat there problem has been scoring goals, there manager is a bit on the negative side too, bit like our former boss. Hull have come with a good run, not sure if they can sustain it though, they seem to be coming good at the right time they just need to guard against peaking too soon. Bristol City since they hit the top have had some really poor results, they lost again on Saturday. yet they are still up there which is testiment to how badly the others have done of late too. Watford have been here before, like West Brom that experience may count for a lot. It really is incredibly tight any one of thesa teams who are able to string a few results together could go up. But if I was put on the spot I would probably plump for WBA and Watford going up automatically with with Wolves sneaking in through the back door via the playoffs.

We'd be 5 points better off if we had, above Tottenham and just one point below West Ham in 10th, and only a couple of wins off Man City. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 I'd really like to see Hull come up, and on current form I think they will. If they invest prudely in the summer, then they'd have the best chance of staying up along with West Brom, I would imagine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's kick ball long, elbow player whilst in the air, lose header, moan at Ellington. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
