Far too positive.
Should read "No signings, relegation nailed on", then you'd get 50 likes.

Privately he might feel frustrated that the top six default is to look abroad for their managers, while jobs at the bigger and more established clubs that would allow a better platform to attack the European elite remain elusive, but Burnley’s growth in the last half a dozen seasons is there for all to see.

I think last season proved that outside the top six there are no automatically established Premier League teams. Bigger ones than Burnley yes, but not necessarily automatically established. At one point it looked like even Everton could be in trouble and the relagation of 'established' Premier League teams WBA, Swansea and Stoke, proved the point. Look at the Championship. Chock full of ex- Premier League teams. Even one winner of it - ouch!!!

Absolutely. You've got the top six and probably Everton / West Ham who look too strong for relegation on paper, but outside of those you could literally pick names out of a hat from 9th to 20th and it wouldn't look stupid whatever the outcome!

Real life...will be a long hard season. Winning the Europa will take it out of us!
