I think Wigan are the most likely to go down. I like Martinez but his refusal to compromise on playing 'good' football will lead to their downfall.

Blackburn, although they beat United, are a disaster club at the moment and it's only a matter of time till they sell Samba and Hoilett meaning they'll be right up shit creek.

Then it's a case of whether Bolton can put together some results. I think they are better than they have shown so far but they are running out of time to show that. If they do step up then I think Wolves could slip into trouble, but I think it's going to be a bad year for the North West (well...at the bottom at least).

It's all about who Owen Coyle signs this month to replace Cahill and improve the midfield. They need some quality in midfield desperately. Anybody know when Lee is back for them?

Bolton seem inept, unless they improve ridiculously with the Cahill money/Lee and Holden get back to fitness they're going down.

Blackburn have the quality to survive, and I don't think they will.

Also QPR to get Barton injured and go on a massive nosedive.

Well the race is heating up as just 2 points separate the bottom 5 teams.

My prediction that Swansea would falter Blackpool style was horribly off the mark.

I think Wolves, Bolton and one other, most likely QPR will go down.

Although I was wrong about Blackburn selling Samba and Hoilett, and although they've just had a good result against QPR, I still think Blackburn are for the drop, and I stand by my belief that Wigan will go with them. I think QPR are now the team most likely to join them, although alot will depend on how Wolves react to a new manager.

Wigan, Bolton and Wolves.

Out of those 3, I suspect Wigan are about the best bet of staying up and dragging either Blackburn or QPR down instead.

Ridiculously close, all 1 team needs is a short run of good results though, could literally be any of them.

Wolves might pick up, with a new manager too.
