Teams coming up

Well that’s what everyone thought would happen to us, it’s impossible to say until you see their recruitment.

I don't disagree, but I just don't see any of those 6 or 7 potential teams to come up doing anywhere near what we did in terms of financial outlay. Ultimately, all we've proven is the size of the gap and demonstrated how much investment is absolutely required to have a fighting chance in this league. The Coventry chairman has already come out covering his arse and stating he won't be spending near what we did, Ipswich and Southampton are too close to PSR limitations to do so without considerable sales (which they don't have in their squad), Boro and Millwall just don't have the financial clout and Derby wouldn't risk it having been so close to bankruptcy. Best option to survive, ironically, would be Wrexham, but no chance does Parky make an intent on this league.

And even then, if you do invest as needed and find that clout, you then need 100 other things to go your way.
 

To me the 3 to come up will be Coventry, Ipswich and Soton.
All 3 will need to utilize loans and freebies and play very tight to stand a chance
That said I wouldnt discount any of them surviving
McKenna will surely be more savvy
I would think Lampards relatively recent relationships with City and Chelsea will come to the fore in terms of recruitment
The Soton manager is relative unknown but he has them playing lovely football
