Middlesbrough have been working on getting strong links between them and top clubs. This will benefit both teams with middlesbrough having the option to loan any off their young/senior players before any other clubs. Where as the top clubs will hope their players will develop more under first team football

This is not a rumour but, Alex Rae would be the ideal candidate for the millwall post, what is needed to get that bunch of slackers consistent is a tough talking Scott!

charlton are in a strategically great place atm. we will make and have made a 7m loss. for ffp we need to make under 8m loss, so good there
chris powell has made soem bold decisions already as we now are being placed higher and higher in the predicted table. Leicester, ipswich, middlesborough and bolton will have to cut their losses drastically. the three promoted teams will most likely prove no threat for promotion and be in a relegation scrap. leeds will do well, qpr will get play offs, wigan will be up there, reading will probably get the title. charlton will sign the following
conor henderson free
sam baldock 750k
jon obika free
luke brattan free
florent ruoamba free
mark gower free
jake wright 250k

predicted table for 2013 14
reading
wigan
----------
bolton
leicester
charlton
leeds
--------------

to go down
------------
millwall (not being biased, I have millwall friend and he said because jackett left they will go down)
yeovil
barnsley

I doubt Wigan will come 2nd due to competing in the Europa League. For their own benefit, they need to get out of the Europa League asap.

Poor old Barnsley relegated again same as last 6 seasons

predicted league counts for nothing who would have thought WOLVES would have got relegated and BLACKBURN would be in a relegation fight so Charlton fan you are talking tosh. UTT

Agree0 Disagree0

Ok then huddersfield to go that one step further and get relegated

Agree0 Disagree0

Fancy qpr will be in the mix for play off

Agree0 Disagree0

Would LOVE to see Yeovil & Bournemouth relegated next season. Just to put them back in their place.

Agree0 Disagree0

Qpr. reading wigan 2/3 up

Agree0 Disagree0

Sorry forgot to add Blackpool mid table now that's funny are you joining non league this year Paul itfc

Agree0 Disagree0

Bit surprised about your promotion tips, Max. People's predictions last year about Wolves, Blackburn and Bolton were woefully off the mark. Bloody tough league. Hope Yeovil and Bournemouth do well. Don't understand the comment about 'put them back in their place'.

Agree0 Disagree0

Who the budgie who says itfc to go down itfc Steve

Agree0 Disagree0

Yep tough league. bet all clubs wish they could play dripswich every game. 3 pts. bournemouth and yeovil may stay up. 6 pts apiece from dripswich will help them thou.

Maloney, McManaman and McAthur, McArthy, McCleary and Le Fondre all want to stay in the Premiership. Should Norwich make a move for any of them? Discuss please.

Tomas'

Believable0 Unbelievable0

McLeary and McArthur are barely good enough for the Prem, the rest would be worth a punt, especially Maloney.

Agree0 Disagree0

McArthur is still young enough to improve, and has done in each season he has played there. For somebody to say he is barely good enough, has clearly not watched enough of him. He has been a quality signing, a they got a great deal from Hamilton.

Agree0 Disagree0

If there barely good enough then there plenty good enough for you then

Agree0 Disagree0

Why would they go to Norwich knowing they will playing in the championship the year after itfc Steve

Tony Pulis is set to leave stoke by mutual consent (basically Coates wants him gone) this has disappointed me and am more worried that this will be our last year in the premier league because I believe that tony pulis was a good manager and I can't see us getting anyone in good enough to keep us in the premier league.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

No harm to see the back of Tony "battering ram" Pulis.

Professor of hoofball!

Agree0 Disagree0

Steal Harry Redknapp so he can work his "magic" like he did at QPR.

Agree0 Disagree0

Harry Houdini my ar$e!

guaranteed to get
relegated and be skint

hope so, who else we in for? I ken about Murray Davidson but who else? I would like to see graham carey, pernis and adam rooney.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Davidson has already said that he wants to play in England, so no way will he be signing for Aberdeen or Hearts. He is well good enough for the championship, big tall strong player good box to box midfielder who can get goals. And has decent passing range and teqnical ability, also likes a tackle. Could easily do a great job playing holding midfield if played there.

I'm sorry to say that I am sick of stupid rumours already this summer and the ditherings of smaller clubs such as west ham. Manchester United proved last year that if you want to improve in order to be better you have got to pay the money which they did and what a buy Van persie proved to be. West Ham however don;t have that sort of money and are now haggling with Liverpool over a possible £12m move and £90k a week. IS THIS FOR REAL! Is Carroll really going to score them 20 to 25 goals next season? I doubt it. Surely the more prudent move would be to spend wisely and use the money to get players they need in ie Solly, Sane, Hooper, RHodes and possible loan deal for Lukaku. What happened to common sense and a BUDGET
