It's essentially a lottery between Reading, Saints, West Ham, West Brom, Fulham, Norwich, Swansea, Villa, Wigan, Stoke and Sunderland at this stage. Any of them could go down.

After our signings so far, I'll lean towards West Ham, Norwich & West Brom.

Villa, Norwich and Swansea at this point.

Though Fulham is a decent shout and I don't even know who WBA's manager is so can't comment on their chances. Classic yo-yo team though so they probably wouldn't mind.

Right, so after all of the spurious predictions, only Arsenal, Everton, Liverpool, QPR & Spurs are safe.

Oddschecker have Reading, Southampton and Norwich as those to go down with Reading favourites to finish last. They also have McD as the sixth favourite prem manager to be sacked first with Allardyce as the favourite.

Bookies, eh!

That's interesting. Under the radar. It's how we roll.

Surprised so few votes for Saints. Leapt 2 divisons in 2 seasons and were treading water a bit towards the end of last season. Manager a bell-end, too, as you say.

Swansea and Norwich also for me.

I hate West Ham as much as the rest of RFC fans, but suprised so many are tipping them for the drop.

They got a very good squad of players, I think they will be alright. Bottom half and knocking about but they'll be OK.

they struggled to get promotion from the Championship, with a squad off players that should have walked the division

Two average keepers and a poor defence.

So they've got the tools (in every meaning), just got to make it click. I tend to agree that West Ham won't go down.
