They will still struggle to finish 4th

I tend to agree pal.

Too many big time Charlie's, plus they won't be happy sitting on the bench.

I will have a bet of 'name your price' that they will make top 2. Want to take it?

[sirpiechucker]

I think they will finish in the top 3. They will ship out a few before the start of the season but I think they will be there or thereabouts come next May.

I guess City dont plan on getting relegated, so we wont have to compete.

Yeah but they have rich owners. Amazing what can be done.

we don't compete with them, we compete with the dross in CCC.

Most teams will never compete with the top teams as the English League system lost all competitiveness once the Premier League became established and then further when the Champions League did.

Parachute payments and the announcement they are being extended will make it worse.

The only way we will become a Premier League force is by being bank-rolled by our owers. Even then we have neither the history, fanbase or infrastructure to compete with the bigger clubs as an attractive option for big players.

So the answer is - NO

We have never had fanbase, history or infrastructure but we kicked butt, and we shall again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i feel tho.. likes of man city, chelsea, man utd, liverpool etc..

all have a point in time where the huge spending will catch up with them.

there will be a point in time where debt will need to be paid.
