PROMOTIONOMETER

[brummie]

Our current squad and our current manager walks all over the Championship, not that we would want or be able to keep the current squad.

 

I think you're right, in that we get so used to watching shite week in, week out, that we look towards the championship and think we are still going to continue being shite week in, week out, without stopping to think about the reduced quality of teams we'll be playing in it.

The Championship isn't a good league at all.

[Ashley17]

It's really not. It's exciting because they're all different levels of shite, bar a couple of teams who have obviously gone on to get promotion. We played Alan Smith centre mid for 4 months and won the league ffs

[Ketsbaia]

Yeah. It's an even, competitive league but that's because it's evenly poor.

[GM]

Is it nailed on we would have Armstrong up front? Can't imagine there wouldn't be a fire sale over the summer...

Norwich look a good bet at 8/1!

 

[Dave]

Villa 14/1 and Wigan 16/1.

[Karjala]

Cant see Villa winning it, Norwich, Brighton or Sheff Weds maybes!

With Rafa - 8

Without Rafa - 2

With Rafa - 8

Without Rafa - 2

So with Rafa you'll think we will be in a relegation scrap, but without him we'll be challenging for automatic promotion

[Guest firetotheworks]

The promotionmeter is incorrect.

The new Villa owner making plenty of noises about spending big and getting them back in the premier and eventually the top 3. I didn't really consider them much of a threat next season, but if they spend money they could be rivals for promotion. Theyr current squad is a long way off ours though, and Di Matteo or Pearson who are touted as being lined up for manager aren't in the same league as Reafa.

well hopefully in the same league is exactly what Rafa is.

Am confident of automatic promotion if  Rafa stays, as by extension that means he's got the assurances he  wants on spending and the squad.

 

Would actually fancy us to be champions, as Villa had less than half of our points and Rafa had us playing top half form in the last 6 games, no matter who jumps ship on the playing side.

 

All three relegated sides should be top 6.

 

Without Rafa, I'd still fancy us for automatic promotion but would be less confident and a hell of a lot less interested in, and excited about, the new season.

Potentially 2 clubs who have won the European cup and 2 managers who have won the Champions League in the Championship next year.

 

How does the Premier League compare? 3 clubs I think, not sure on managers
