I know there's a few here that like trading the PL relegation market. I'm one of them.

I've already had a couple of nice greens on Brentford, but at odds of 4.50 - 5.00 I reckon they are great value to go down.
They've lost their manager, Mbeumo is going, now their captain Norgaard.

Team spirit has been a key factor in their success story, but the heart has been ripped out of them

I'd say the only thing mitigating this are the teams coming up. The gap is getting bigger, even between the worse EPL teams and the promoted teams.

Good spot with Brentford.

Tend to agree about the gap in recent years of the gap between the worse premier teams and recently promoted teams.

Sunderland will to do well to beat "Derby's 11pts", this season. Southampton only got 12 points. (mind you they did sell some their better players early on) Leeds would have struggled too in the premier league last year too, and welcomed 1 more year in the championship to re-develop.

With Burnley and Leeds, both have managers that have struggled to keep sides in the premiership, but deserve an opportunity to try again, but business is business, they won't be given that long if results are poor in the first 8 games, that's just the way things are.

Leeds have the financial backing with Red Bull and the 49'ers, and want to renovate their stadium, so "expect" to stick around to get a return on their investment. (easier said than done)

Relegation Odds.

Man City are 25/1. Reckon that's still worth a punt too.

Lyon just got relegated to Ligue 2 for financial misconduct, so that might embolden the decision makers to "go for it".
