Poor old Alan Curbishley , he tries ever so hard , and you can see the passion in his eyes no matter who he manages , but the passion is'nt enough if you dont have the squad to go with it . I hope they can get some decent signings in before the window closes , they beat Man United last year , but beating one big team a season wont keep you out of a relegation battle .

16. Bolton .

Another team I said would be relegated in my last article , I feel my words were harsh , they are a Greater Manchester team and I should get behind them a bit more , they wont get relegated , but I feel another relegation dogfight for Gary Megson's men .Getting rid of Anelka last year and Diouf this year , plus Stelios being released , could be another turning point for the worse for the trotters.

17. Wigan Athletic.

I dont feel Wigan have it just right yet either , they need a big name and Fast , They avoided relegation barely last year and i feel the same is on the cards for Steve Bruce's boys this year too , I hope I'm wrong with Bruce being a United hero in my childhood days , i just cant see it.

 

18. Fulham.

Last years final day survivors could be doomed this year , they have bought Mark Schwartzer from Boro , but if you got a dodgy defence , then the best of keepers cant really help you out . We will have to wait and see but i hear the Championship calling Muhammed Al Fayed's Fulham already .

19. Hull City.

New boys doomed to failure , i put them in 17th in my last article , it was me being optimistic again .I dont see them having that cutting edge in the cold light of day , getting rid of Jay Jay Okocha with his experience in the premiership was a lethal mistake , him and Dean Windass together may of been a good set of Leaders in the premier league , but I feel they may as well make preparations for the championship next year already .

 

20. Stoke City.

Or soon to be known as Derby County in Red and White , I stated from the beginning that Stoke are decent , but only in the Championship , they are no where near steady Premiership material , they dont have the money , they dont have the squad either . I feel for Tony Pulis , he must know this year will be the Toughest of his career , lets hope he does'nt end up sacked five games into the season .

So There you have it , my real predictions , I'm waiting for the Liverpool fans and anyone else I may of ruffled feathers with to start slating these decisions as well .

Dare I ask ?  What do you think ? Am I right ? Are my Predictions Sound ? Or wrong ?

Coment and rate as usual .
