    I've had a number of people tracking me down about this - and so, after a season's gap, here it is:-

    Expect that the top six or seven teams will have a gap below them, and that there will be a number of clubs in trouble all the way through the season.



    ARSENAL
    Nick Name The go-on-ers
    2011-2012 season
    Premier League: 3rd
    I don’t see Arsenal improving defensively, and I don’t think they will be able to score enough goals to make them serious challengers for a CL place.

    Mister Street says – Another barren season for Arsenal, pressure will be on Wenger as they slip to 6th in the league.

    ASTON VILLA
    Nick Name – The Villa (high IQs abound in the Midlands)
    2011-2012 season
    Premier League: 16th
    How will Villa survive after the loss of influential strike Emile Heskey and the departure of manager Wee Eck?

    Mister Street predicts an improvement, finishing 11th, doubt they will perform well in cup competitions.

    CHELSEA
    Nick Name The Chelsea Buns, The Chelsea Pensioners, The Chelsea Racists.
    2011-2012 season
    Premier League: 6th
    Will score the goals to mount a better league title campaign this season, but I see their defence becoming under greater pressure, so making a defence of their 2 cups more difficult.
    Will get off to a flying start in their usual league opener – away at Wigwam. Predict a January approach to sign Luis Suarez.

    Mister Street predicts 3rd place and a couple of cup semis.

    EVERTON
    Nick Names – Toffees, Bitters
    2011-2012 season
    Premier League: 7th

    Everton have built a decent First XI, and some well able squad players. The team could make a real impact on the league this season if they can keep the physios room quiet! Some good transfer business in the summer too, the rebuilding of Moyes next squad has begun. Club needs to increase revenue, and I suggest this should be done by increasing season ticket prices slightly next year, but increasing match by match prices by a greater amount.
    Mister Street says 4th place, if a little bit of luck goes our way.
    FULHAM

    2011-2012 season
    Premier League: 9th

    Lost a lot of quality this summer, admittedly some of that quality was heading towards their sell-by date.
    Mister Street predicts 14th, but opening day fixture here against Norwich is cruiocial one for both clubs.

    LIVERPOOL
    Nick Names, The Reds, The Gunners.
    2011-2012 season
    Premier League: 8th

    W H has been out blaming the current state of the club on the previous owners. Who is deluded? The club that was once famously loayal to the local fans and the City of Liverpool has become are far removed from the City as is possible. Formerly they had used local suppliers where possible, but now the kit is made in USA, they drive American cars, sponsored by a Manx Bank, and also no longer use local suppliers for their insurance – they use Man U sponsors Aon!!!

    New manager, Brenda Rodgers, is hoping to emulate Spain – play football that will bore the pants off everyone. RS don’t have the team to do it well, and some of their more influencial players are coming to the end of their playing careers. Prediction that SG will only start about 50% of games this season.

    Gobs will be secretly expecting to win the league at this point in time, but come Christmas they will be comforting themselves with the fact that this is a season for rebuilding.

    Mister Street predicts – fall from grace – 8th.

    MANCHESTER CITY
    Nick Names. City. No, Not United.
    2011-2012 season
    Premier League: 1st
    Their first league title in a generation, we always knew they were a massive club. FFS. They have the fire power to win it again, but not sure they have the bottle.

    Mister Street predicts – 2nd.
    MANCHESTER UNITED
    Nick Names. United. No, Not City.
    2011-2012 season
    Premier League: 2nd

    Think United will wow us this season, will have goals a plenty

    Mister Street predicts – United will win it by s small margin, but weill be the most enjoyable team to watch.
    NEWCASTLE UNITED
    Nick Names – The Bah Codes.
    2011-2012 season
    Premier League 5th
    As many of our older readers will know, I have a soft spot for N’Castle, but I don’t think they will do as well this season, esp as one season wonders begin to look for warmer climates to play in.

    Mister Street predicts 7th, but season opener could be a key game for them.
    NORWICH CITY

    2011-2012 season
    Premier League: 12th
    Mister Street says - I don’t think Norwich will flourish this season as they did last. I think they’ll struggle first game of the season v Fulham, and finish nnnnn19th.
    QUEENS PARK RANGERS

    Nick Names. Hoops. Rs (pronounced are sss)
    2011-2012 season
    Premier League: 17th

    Mark Hughes could have been a hero if he’d have come to Goodison in the mid 80’s. But he never. Won’t forgive him for his tapping up of Lescott and his undignified unsettling of the Everton player, and I’m glad he doesn’t like ti when the boot is on the other foot. Sioncerely hope he gets the sack from this idiotic group of directors. Much transfer activity in Shepherds Bush, douobt they will gel in to a team, bunch of mercenaries.
    Mister Street predicts – Struggling opener, finish 18th.

    Nick Names – the library (reading, library, get it?? Oh ffs, if I have to explain myself)
    2011-2012 season
    Championship: 1st

    Could be a settled club, but beware of meddlers.
    Mister Street contemplates:- Would like them to do really well, but best I can see is 17th, survival in the last month of the season.
    SOUTHAMPTON
    Nick Name – The Saints.
    2011-2012 season
    Championship: 2nd

    Former Everton striker George Kirby still holds the record of scoring the quickest hat-trick for Saints, 3 in 4 minutes in the opening fixture some 60 years ago.

    Mister Street says _ No such goal scoring feats this season, expect a hammering opening game v Citeh, and will finish just above relegation in 15th
    STOKE CITY
    Nick Names – Corporal Jones (they don’t like it up em)

    2011-2012 season
    Premier League: 14th

    What can be said about Pullis team that hasn’t been said already? They play neat attractive football, preferring things on the floor to in the air, maybe a bit soft in the challenge. That’s three things never been said about them.

    Mister Street surmises - Stable team this summer, will build on league position and finish 11th.
    SUNDERLAND

    Nick Names – Sunderland (beware very low IQ in Sunderland)

    2011-2012 season
    Premier League: 13th

    Steve Bruise is another twerp that I can’t stand after his girly crying to camera when Everton were trying to sign Lilly Savage.

    Mister Street says – although I hate to say it, I thin they’ll do OK this season, perhaps grab an opening day point and go on to finish 10th.
    SWANSEA

    Nick Name – The Swans
    2011-2012 season
    Premier League: 11th

    Played keep ball last season, achieved mediocrity. It was this mediocrity that first attracted John Henry to Claudia Rodgers. Next season – it’s anyone’s guess.

    Mister Street guesses – 12th – it was the only position in the table I’d not filled, so they have to slot in there. Will bumble along after an opening day victory. Or perhaps not.
    TOTTENHAM
    Nick Names – Mighty Spurts. Tottingham.
    2011-2012 season
    Premier League: 4th

    Something like 13 players have left Spurts in the close season, as wholesale changes take place. Now that dodgy dealer second hand car salesman Arry Red has been sacked, what can we expect?
    IMister Street thinks there will be a decline in results, perhaps success in a cup, 5th in the league.
    WEST BROM
    Nick Names – The Throstles. WTF is a Throstle.
    2011-2012 season
    Premier League: 10th
    Finished bang on the fold in the Pink Echo, shows what a great manager Woy is – hang your heads, Gobs!

    Mister Street predicts WBA struggle but pick up an opening day point, as opposition create a world record for the number of times a team hits the woodwork in one game. Finish 16th
    WEST HAM
    Nick Names – Wham. Andy Ridgley
    2011-2012 season
    Championship: Play off winners
    The man with the largest head in football, BSA, completes my hat trick of disliked PL managers. Wham have been up and down like a Chelsea rent boys kecks in a public convenience. No other Wham references are being made following advicwe from my lawyers.

    BSA always loved his dabbling in the transfer market, and again, on advice I’m not going to question this manager’s honesty….

    Mister Street expects, Wham to escape the drop – sadly – finishing 16th.
    WIGAN

    Nick names – Wigwam.
    2011-2012 season
    Premier League: 15th
    Honest man of the game, Mister JD Sport, did his very best to make a quick buck from selling his manager to RS. He also benefits from the transfer of players in and out of the club, and whilst he would love to see them survive in EPL, he’s not really all that bothered.

    Mister Street predicts a slaughtering on the open day, and wigwam to collapse like a cheap child’s tepee (that’s a cheap tepee owned by a child).

    Just reading the first two pages following the iopening games, a couple of pionts stand out:-

    Sunderland to get a draw, Chelsea to get off to a flyer (2 goals in opening 6 mins of the season), Swansea to win first match, Norwich to struggle, Southampton to get beaten.

    This guy knows what he's talking about!
