The Championship Promotion Race.

Villa and Wolves have spent big,much bigger than us in fact.

I've not much idea who else has done much business in that division this summer but I reckon the pair of them will be top half this season and should avoid flirting with relegation like they did last year.

Bruce is good at getting teams up. Villa will be knocking at the door.
I fear a shift in power in W.Mids football is coming. The dark clouds are gathering.

Boro should do well as they kept a hold of most of their players from last season.....well so far.....:)

Having Portugese coaching staff and so many Portugese signings is certainly a high risk strategy for the Wolves. If and it's a big if they start well then you can see them having a good season. If however they make a bad start the pressure on manager and players will quickly grow. Bottom half at Xmas what do they do? Stick with a loser and hope it comes right or tear the project up and start again.
Like I said high risk but at least it's a bit exciting. Wish I could say the same about our lot.
