Iain Dowie has flatly rejected the suggestion his Charlton side will be relegation fodder next season - and insists the Addicks are out to cause plenty of problems in the Barclays Premiership.The departure of long-time head coach Alan Curbishley at the end of the last campaign following 15 years at the helm left many questioning just where the south-east London club would go from here.
