    I think they can forget about avoiding relegation this season if they carry on like this.

    I meant Wigan anyway.

    I'm predicting Blackpool, Wigan and West Brom to go down.

    Still took 4000 in a 16000 crowd. home crowd of 12000 in the preniership is pretty poor at the beginning of a season. 4-0 top of the league, great day out for them, like a good underdog story!

    Didn't know it was that many so well done to Blackpool fans although to be fair it's close by and first away game in the EPL so you would expect a good travelling support.

    Somebody was watching Football Focus earlier on today.

    Both pundits opted for those three teams for the drop.

    To be fair, Wigan were a non-League club playing to crowds of 1,000 not long ago and are based in the most Rugby oriented town in the country.

    They are surrounded by more established Premiership teams: City, United, Bolton, Liverpool, Everton, and Blackburn.

    12,000 isn't bad all in all.

    Blackpools record signing was Charlie Adam at £500k. Proof, if any were needed, that you dont need a big budget to build a good team.

    I read the mirror and most of the 'pundits' put them 3 teams down. I still think its nailed on they will be the three down
