RUMBELOWS91 Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 (edited) Leeds and Fulham joint favourites 5/2 WBA 3/1 Hudds, Cardiff, Stoke 7/2 Boro, Owls 9/2 Brentford, Swansea 6/1 Forest 7/1 Early days before any transfer activity but looks an open league, no real clear favourites. Surprised how short Stoke are. I would probably make WBA favourites. Edited May 27, 2019 by RUMBELOWS91 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised how short the odds are when there are numerous teams capable of beating each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bouncing Owl Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Whilst we need a few in, as long as Westwood and Hector come back, I really fancy us next season. This will be a weak league and we now have a good manager. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If these are promotion odds, then an ~82% chance we don't get promoted: feels about right... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doghouse Daz Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 I'll stick wi mi 9/1 for us to be promoted and pigs to be relegated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s6 owl Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 If we get things done early and not leave it to the last minute like previous years then we will do well. If Boro get Jokanovic then I fancy them to be strong unfortunately. Cardiff will be up there simply because of Colin. Brentford are already a good young team and will strengthen. The Stoke manager won't make it to Christmas. Swansea will struggle Potter did a good job their despite the mid table finish. Derby are in the s**t with their key players all going back to their parent clubs. West Brom will be play offs at best. Fulham will be near the top. Huddersfield will roll back 5 years in time to being a mid to lower mid table club that takes more interest in what Forestieri is doing than watching their own team. L**ds will inevitably fall apart at some stage. I really don't think there is anything to fear next season. Top 6 Cardiff Fulham Wednesday Brentford West Brom Birmingham In my opinion of course...

TheEnchanter Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 We've not finished 1st in any league since the 1958/59 season and have only finished 2nd in 3 seasons during that time. Not surprised we aren't fancied. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprised we aren't fancied. well, except the odds (and I'm not sure where the poster has got them from, but taking them to be real odds against achieving promotion) show us to be one of the more fancied sides in an open league. Again, taking at face value: no team with a better than two in seven chance of promotion assessed at this stage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sMacLean Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Would be shocked if we didn't finish top 6. Another season like the last one that is wide open. Thankfully we start this one with Bruce not Jos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james o connor Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 (edited) I’m not quite sure why so many here think we will finish in the top 6 ? Based on what . We sign some pace and somebody who actually can finish we have a chance but as it stands another top half finish . Fulham will be strong , I think stoke will get it right and boro . Dunno about Cardiff and West Brom will plod along with a squad that makes one of carlos look youthful Edited May 28, 2019 by james o connor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
