BilboBaggins05 Posted May 28, 2018 Report Share Posted May 28, 2018 Looks quite difficult this year, my prediction at looks like this top 2 Villa and West Brom Remaining top 6 boro, leeds, brentford preston us in 8th birmingham, bolton and rotherham down will be interested to hear the rest of your opinions, we could be higher but not with our current squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie BCFC Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 If I had to do the top 6 right now it would be 1. Stoke 2. Middlesbrough 3. Swansea 4. Villa 5. Preston 6. West Brom 22. Wigan 23. Rotherham 24. Bolton However not entirely sure what would happen I hear Villa are going through a few FFP issues so I doubt that would stay the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cider-Head23 Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 Cant see Villa finishing top 2 with their FFP issues and having to sell some of their star assets. Top 6 more realistic for them again. 1. West Brom 2. Stoke 3. Middlesbrough 4. Swansea 5. Villa 6. Bristol City 22. Bolton 23. Wigan 24. Rotherham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Orns Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 Did I see that Wigan were bought out by some serious Chinese money last week? I don't see Birmingham going down Top 6 is going to be incredibly tough next season. Look at the teams, this is probably the toughest Championship season ever coming up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweeneys Penalties Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 I really dont see City being Top 6 material in 2018/19, I would love to be proved wrong though. The rest? Lets see the ins/outs from June - September Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bite your hand off for 11th right now Who knows though, I thought we'd be fighting relegation this season.

Thinking about it, other than the first half of the season just gone and the early weeks of the previous one, since we’ve been back at this level we have either been fighting relegation or been in relegation form.... doesn’t bode well really..... but you never know......

Lrrr Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 Bit late for pre-window predictions I think we could be in for some surprises next season, Villa and Derby supposedly having to cut back big time could see them drop out of the top 6, the relegated teams could lose a good few players each. I think we'll finish just outside the top 10. Birmingham some may scoff at but Monk turned them around when he came in, let him get some more players in and I think they could be a threat. Forest under Karanka could also be interesting. I've said a few times that I don't see the relegated teams doing well, but looking round at the rest of the division if Villa/Derby are in financial trouble then the remainder of the division could leave their chances open. Think Boro are in pole position at the moment.

Ska Junkie Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 Top 2: 'Boro Stoke Play offs: Swansea West Brom Leeds PNE Us: 10th / 11th Down: Bolton Blackburn Rotherham Total guess work obviously and will, undoubtedly, change by the time the season starts.

cidercity1987 Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 These type of threads are only meaningful if they are reviewed at the end of the season, which is never done. Where are the 17/18 predictions from this time last year to see who made a fool of themselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YorkshireSection Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 1: West Brom 2: Boro 3: Swansea 4: Blackburn 5: Stoke 6: Villa I think we will come in around 18th, LJ sacked in Feb straight after the window closes (in true city style) as City go on yet ANOTHER crazy run; 8 losses on the trot with no shots on target in 3 games. Allan Brazil & Mike Parry come in to manage City, steering us out of the drop zone and on to the heady heights of 18th. ....... or, this thread is completely bonkers!!!!

DolmanDave Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 Top 6 Boro West Brom Stoke Swansea Villa Brentford Us.. anywhere from 7th-15th depends who comes and leaves. 3 to go down.. Rotherham Reading Bolton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gifford Posted May 30, 2018 Report Share Posted May 30, 2018 Boro, West Brom, Villa, Swansea, Derby, Preston. City to finish 8th, meltdown as we throw away playoff place in last few games including a losing to already relegated Rotherham final day without having a shot on target.

cidered abroad Posted May 30, 2018 Report Share Posted May 30, 2018 I believe that at present, some of the guesses shown above about a top half finish, are well over optimistic. Pointless exercise at this time. Better wait until we know what our squad will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
