    It's a tough call at the moment as there are a few teams easily capable of being up there. I think this might be the top seven teams:

    Morecambe
    Shrewsbury
    Crawley Town
    Rotherham
    Southend
    Gillingham
    Oxford Utd

    (although maybe not in that order!)

    A lot of guesswork in this as I haven't seen half the teams yet. In no order I'll go for Rotherham, Gillingham, Swindon, Crawley, Port Vale, Oxford and erm, oh yes, Shrewsbury Town FC.

    I think Burton and Crewe are also good dark horse bets, though maybe not by Christmas.

    Town and some other insignificant teams.

    Shrewsbury Town
    Oxford
    Crawley
    Morecambe
    Rotheram
    Gillingham
    Sarfend.

    in that order, with a 13 point lead already opened up by the mighty town!

    <laugh> cant believe ALL of you are stupid enough to put the Shrews in your top 7, but not the Gas. Shrews have had their good form for the season which will soon come to a halt. Gas are just coming into form. Top 3 by Xmas <ok>

    Nope, you are correct Tinned (appropriate for Shrews!! - would have been better had your username been tinned bottles :D) it wont last long as we will be 2nd and then first, and that is where we will remain for the rest of the season.

    Thought you might have something to say about that. Can't speak for others but I based my judgment on a Brighton supporting friend's description of you as a "really dreadful team" last season (and there must be some of those players left) plus the fact that, until Saturday, it was quicker to find you in the league table by starting at the bottom. Let's face it, we gifted you 3 points and you're still 5 behind. Buckle up or Buckle out!

    We signed 17 new players, hence the slow start. Dont have many of the old lot at all <ok>
