It's a canny tough league like.

Add Stoke, Bristol City, Millwall, Preston and Swansea. All of which will be tough fixtures. Certainly far from a weak league.

Go off the squads. Sheff Wed are piss poor and more likely to have a season like Wigan

Does Tella also play for them? In any case I think they will win it.

He does but surely burnley will throw a bit of money their way for him. Such a stand out performer for them you'd think Kompany will want him back and he'll want to be in the PL.

Can't imagine sheff wed will have anywhere near a season like Wigan

They look a bit shit to me. No doubt they'll recruit but at the minute they seem to be a long ball team with no pace, power or athleticism. Don't think the Wigan comparisons are too ridiculous right now.

They made an inspirational managerial appointment tbf.

Will be surprised if they are above the bottom 3rd of the table but have the summer to invest - decent manager who's been there long enough to be classed as at least stable.

I think sheff weds squad is better than Wigan even now. They have a fair good players. I think they'll be bottom half but I expect them to stay up

All about opinions I suppose but I think sheff wed have a stronger core of players personally than Wigan
 
West Bromwich Albion..Southampton..Leicester City..Leeds United...Middlesbrough...Birmingham City...Blackburn Rovers..Stoke City..Ipswich Town..Sheffield Wednesday..Coventry City..Norwich City...Millwall...Rotherham United..tells you all you need to know about how easy it will be to get points next season. We are going to have to have our best game plan and fittest and most in form player playing to 100% to get anything from those teams. Each one of those will be very hard games.

Even those I didn't mention will be hard. Swansea City will be difficult. They beat us 2-1 at their place and 3-1 at ours. And Cardiff City beat us 1-0 at home.

We won 18 games last season. If we get anywhere near that we will have done exceptionally well with the standard of competition so very super high.
 
We’ve over achieved this season which means expectations will increase for next season. It was a low total of 69 points to sneak into the play offs following multiple teams crumbling we will need to be a lot stronger and consistent next season to repeat being in the top 6 especially at home.

We need to spend what little money we have really well this summer. If we do we will be in with a shout of top 6.
