Rahoul Baruah, eighteensixtyfive.co.uk I'm extremely worried. Not only have we had no new signings, but we've weakened, with James Perch leaving (although some fans are pleased about that) and Joe Garner shipped out on loan (who many, myself included, regard as one of our better strikers). Even more alarming is the apparent fallout between the board and the manager. There are lots of rumours doing the rounds that Billy Davies and the board have had enough of each other (over the board's inability to sign anyone and Billy's need to mouth off in public). If things get patched up and we get a couple of signings we'll be fine (though last season was an overachievement). If it falls apart, who knows? Last season 3rd Prediction 7th The new boys Transfers are a major problem. I don't know if Billy's targets are unrealistic, whether the budget is uncompetitive or if our "acquisitions panel" is just really poor at negotiating. Most fans point the finger at the panel. Men to watch Wes Morgan and Lee Camp are loved by the fans and Rob Earnshaw absolutely loves us. Best youngsters Radi Majewski: he's a proper talent, too good for the Championship (just watch that goal against West Brom on YouTube). However, people know about him now so I can see him being double-marked out of the game. Target for the boo-boys Perchio has left, so that's one less to boo. So it will fall on Dele Adebola, David McGoldrick and everyone's favourite scapegoat, Luke Chambers. Hate figure Derby County, "Non-League" Nigel Clough and Robbie Savage, of course. And QPR manager Colin will always be up there. Going up Burnley, Cardiff, QPR When Do We Meet?
