My view on the teams relegated from the Prem

Not sure if I agree with your assessment of the relegated teams

Derby – currently a total shambles, will need a completely new team, after Jewell’s comments at the weekend.

Brum –Board uncertainty and a manager, although proven in Scotland, not in England, plus they’ve got a bunch of very fickle stay away fans.

Reading – remind me of the scum’s first season in the prem, massively over achieved, then fell away. I think they will be the strongest of the three if Coppell stays.

Yes, they’ll all have cash, but do did Pardew, and Boothroyd and it didn’t help them. Remember £3.75 for Nathan Ellington or Luke Varneys’ monster salary deal.

And all three will have plenty of want-away players, Cameron Jerome already asking at Brum.

I’d be more worried about Forrest and Leeds (if they come up). They’ll spend money, but the clubs are on the up, and have momentum.
