I know we are not in the PL, but was thinking last night about who we may expect to see in the bottom 3 this year, and even who could make up the bottom 6.
Over the first weekend, have Sunderland and Leeds flattered to deceive, or do we think there is substance enough for them to mount a realistic survival challenge. Are Burnley as bad as Day 1 suggests?
Is this going to be the season when Wolves, West Ham or Everton drop, and what about the changes at Brentford. Will Man Utd and Spurs have improved?
Will the European challenge derail the more established sides like Palace and Forest, and then the current perrenial mid table clubs like Bournemouth, Fulham and Brighton to slip down?
Finally is there any risk to the more established top sides like Villa or Newcastle even with their transfer challenges.
I have a feeling it is going to be a more enjoyable watch without having to face the pain we went through last season, and we may see a surprise entrant into the bottom third of the table . . . |  | | |  |

Fixtures were kinder to sunderland and Leeds than us huge difference,
I think Burnley won't avoid the drop,
The other two have a small chance very small only because there's a cluster of teams who've lost a few players and the normal everyone ECT who don't seem to learn,
Sunderland were way off the top two last year huge gap to make up and more for the premiership,
Leeds are Leeds spawn,
In the end I think all three will go down
Leeds if any may scrape it by luck,
If last night's penalty was anything to go by,
If that was against the big 5 the ref wouldn't have gave it let alone var intervene, |  | | |

I would love to see West Ham relegated, but they will sack Potter in October and the new manager bounce will drag them clear.
The next two months will give more indication on the promoted teams, one game is far too early to judge especially against "easier" teams. [Post edited 19 Aug 18:16]

Maybe Hammers will survive but they’ll be in the mix. Burnley for sure plus Brentford |  | | |
