Sheffield United v Bristol City in the first leg tonight.

No disrespect to either club but neither have any business in the premer league.

Sunderland probably the best equipped of the semifinalists to stand some slim chance of survival.

Its getting a bit predictable with the 3 promoted sides yoyoing up then down again.

Sheffield already won 0_3 at Bristol city so I doubt Bristol have much chance.
Coventry 1 sunderland 2 also played at end of week.

Yeah - parachute payments give the relegated clubs a massive advantage in going straight back up again. I'd say Leicester, Southampton and Ipswich will all fancy their chances of getting promoted again next season.
Can't see Burnley stay up. Leeds may do if significant investment in the squad is made over the summer. They may have the backing to do so.
However, likes of Bournemouth and Brentford who wouldn't have been considered elite level in time past have established themselves in the EPL with top class recruitment and coaching structures in place. Brighton another club who save for brief period in the 1980s were never top division team have also locked themselves into the EPL.

You can't beat the play offs for drama.

He's done a good job with Coventry to be fair to Frank but I'm not sure he's destined to be a successful manager at any level. Seems to be a right unlucky general.
