25/1? Best I saw was 12 which I thought was extremely stingy for a team supposedly finishing 8th from bottom. I throw $20 on at 25.

Not dark horses. We should be challenging for atleast top6 imo. Our club has so much experience in the championship, so does our manager, so we should know how to mount a real challenge

We won 25 games when we won this division (28 is the average), only West Brom (2007/08) and QPR (2010/11) managed less, while only QPR and Reading (2011/12) scored less. We also had one of the poorer Championship winning defensive records and the worst goal difference of all champions since 1999/2000. However, we were harder to beat than six other champions from that period and only three sides drew more matches than us.
Almost the poorest champs then......wooooh wooooh

Manga and Morrison for me too. All three are prone to the odd mistake. Mind you, Morrison still might be sold if he doesn't sign a new contract so it would then be Manga & Bamba with Connolly as back up. Assuming we don't sell Connolly too!
