When Saturday Comes have published their prediction table, based on fans of every League One club voting for their promotion and relegation favourites. We're bottom, with fourteen out of 23 of our rivals tipping us for relegation. Same number as Stevenage. So, a Graydon-esque promotion it is then.

Sheff Wed are a good outside bet for relegation too. I think they're going to have a mare of a season.

They improved a lot second half of last season. Megson knows what he's doing and they'll be even more motivated this season to finish above Sheff Utd.

Based on them being not great last year and losing Tommy Miller, Gary Teale, Tommy Spurr, Darren Potter etc and replacing them with Julian Bennett, Rob Jones (donkey), Davind Prutton (relegated last year), Jose Semedo etc.

I'd take the players that have left any day over what they've brought in.

We haven't seen Bennett in years who knows what he is like today! As for Prutton an estute signing if you ask me!

If that's your thinking we must be certs for relegation. Fancy making such terrible signings as Bennett and Prutton. :roll:

Actually read what I said MMF... i'd prefer the players they let go over what they've got. Why is that difficult to understand? Bennett has been a crock of late and to be honest has hardly set the world alight since he left us and although Prutton is decent i'd still take Tommy Miller (for example) who got 10 goals in 54 games last year any day. It may be completely wrong but why is that so hard to comprehend? The logic is simply that Sheff Wed were not great last year, have (in my opinion) a worse squad, so could (COULD - it's a prediction) have a mare of a season.

I think you're still in a mood with me for doubting the upper tiers ability to sing on another thread. :lol:

I'm not buying into the Sheff Utd champions thing at the moment. Since when has the big club gone straight back up after coming down to this division? Leeds, Sheffield Wednesday, Forest, Southampton etc.

Norwich springs to mind, albeit they are indeed in the minority.

And it will, thier set up is Premiership status, with facilities and following to match, they may have struggled last season
but they are far too strong for this league, a bit like Southampton last season.
