I've been impressed by Hull's start of the season... But whether they can keep it up long enough to be safe I don't knoew... They look bright though. Stoke look like straight back to me. They've had some good results but I doubt very severly whether they can keep that up.... I'm concerned for west brom... I think they play nice football, but so did watford a couple of years back and they were relegated... I still think they have a strong squad though... |

Hull remind me a lot of Reading in their first season and I think that they can keep the momentum going enough for them to stay up. West Brom haven't really got going at all yet. Dunno if they have what it takes. |

WBA got some good results. Beating West Ham and Boro. Didn't expect them to get results there...can't see them scoring many goals though

i have been very impressed by hull so far, especially the result against arsenal. phil brown has made a few astute signings indeed and hes got them playing as a unit. westbrom have not caught the eye and i fancy them along with stoke who have not impressed me with their negative tactics to go back to where they came from |

I agree flak, Hull remind me of Reading alot. Think stoke will go back down but will put up a good fight. Not sure on brom yet |

West Ham were in crisis when West Brom beat them. Middlesbrough is a good win, dunno why they mess up against the lower teams all of the time. Difference between Hull and Stoke is that Hull are prepared to have a go. |

I think at least 2 of those 3 are safe seeing as spurs and newcastle look set for relegation... |

i think spurs will finally get their act together and secure a mid table finish. i think you maybe right about newcastle tho treb. also you could probably throw bolton into the mix as well |

I dont see spurs or toon going down, they will pick enough points i think. I know both clubs are in a bit of trouble but i think they will both pull through in the end. |

Yep you're right mate, the spurs one was just out of frustration at them (such underachievers). If you consider Newcastle and Bolton in a relegation battle and I think they're both teams that could easily be down there come the business end, then which do you think out of Hull, Stoke and West Brom are gonna be on a level or better or worse than them? |

hello mate, you never know these days. I agree about spurs but there's no guarantee about newcastle, some big clubs gone down in the past in recent years. Newcastle could just be the latest... |

True but Newcastle have a hell of lot of injuries, when the players a fit they should be ok but they do need to sort out the manager and board situation. Cant belive they have turned into such a shambles. |

No chance of Newcastle and Spurs going down. Remember last season...Bolton and Fulham looked doomed up until about 3 weeks to go but they managed to just do enough. |
