Aus Fox Posted 25 June 2012 Share Posted 25 June 2012 And despite losing Hoilett and no doubt probably Yakubu an possibly Dann and N'zonzi but they still have a very solid squad. Pedersen, Dunn, Goodwillie, Olsson, Lowe, Formica. I think Blackburn will be a serious contender to win it. Not as worried by Wolves and the promoted teams. Reports out here in Melboune say they have also signed Harry Kewell if he stays fit he could do some serious damage in the championship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxes2011 Posted 25 June 2012 Share Posted 25 June 2012 Seriously, why on earth are we favourites? Who is actually betting on us? I agree completley im completly stumped. I dont understand how a team that finished 9th last season and was a margin short of doing anything in the league is considered favourates. I'm a masive Leicester fan but even i dont get this one, how can we be above Bolton, Blackburn and Wolves in the betting ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicesterpool Posted 25 June 2012 Share Posted 25 June 2012 Probably the toughest championship campaign ever, but I still believe our boys in blue can still do it teams I can see being around the promotion places around us are Cardiff, Leeds, Brighton, Bolton, Wolves, Middlesbrough & Hull. I'm not fearing Blackburn I think there heading for a mid table finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ealingfox Posted 26 June 2012 Share Posted 26 June 2012 People are underestimating just how bad a manager Steve Kean is. If he is staying on there is surely no way they can get promoted. I went to watch them play Wigan at home when they were sent down, and the tactics and motivation were just diabolical. The players looked confused, lost, had no strategy. How he is still in a job is bizarre almost to the point of suspicion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox92 Posted 26 June 2012 Share Posted 26 June 2012 I've always felt abit for Steve Kean. Ever since day one, the Blackburn fans were on his back. They never gave him a chance. Even David Moyes said he had to leave Ewood Park at half time during a scouting mission because of the Blackburn fans. Horrible. That's why part of me wanted them to get relegated (even though the other part of me wanted them relegated anyway!). How is he still manager though? I don't know. He has spent a fair amount of cash, and only one or two of those signings paid off, with the main one being Yakubu. I just don't think the owner's care.

jock2612 Posted 30 June 2012 Share Posted 30 June 2012 Think Huddersfield will do very well,may even challenge for a top six.Grayson is good.Scanell will be good esp if they do swap JR for Fraser Campbell from Sunderland.The owner has money,good ground,and higher than average support.

shade Posted 30 June 2012 Share Posted 30 June 2012 I think in general 1 or possibly more of 4 things will happen. some teams you expect to do well, will do well. some teams you don't expect to do well, won't do well. some teams you expect to do well, won't do well. some teams you don't expect to do well, will do well. close thread?

Yes, those four points are obviously true. But I think it's more predicting those teams. Don't see the use of closing the thread when it's Championship-based?
