DISQUS

There is no way that 10 Premiership clubs are relegation candidates, that's ludicrous. Realistically, there are only 4-6(Derby, Wigan, Bolton, Boro, possibly Birmingham, and possibly Sunderland). Newcastle won't be going down, neither will Reading or Fulham or any of the other teams you listed outside of the current bottom six.

although i agree 10 clubs are contenders, you should divvy up the others into sections as such:


wigan, bolton, and boro are bona fide contenders for the drop. (i would include derby in that list but they've already been relegated). it all depends on who does just enough in january to survive.



birmingham, sunderland, fulham, and reading wont get relegated, but their poor periodic performances will give their fans heart attacks and spells of depression along the way.



newcastle and tottenham will have disappointing seasons. again.

MJ:


It's unlikely that tams like Newcastle would go down, but I would definitely not count out any of the teams in the bottom ten. They've all looked terrible, at times, this season and have played like relegation candidates.
