    If any City fan thinks it will be easy this coming season, I suggest they start searching for a brain transplant.

    The three defeated play off teams, plus MK Dons, Sheff U, and the three relegated clubs who are all well used to battling for anything, will make it tough.

    At present, without knowing who will come in, the odds seem about right for outright promotion or via play offs. I think the bookies have got it wrong about City's odds for the drop.

    Yeovil and Orient wont finish in the top 10....


    I hope everyone just forgets about us and we go about our business quietly. We are clearly out of the limelight here, bearing in mind a few singings and we could be put right back in it! We should be targeting a top 6 finish this year... Last year was a complete failure and Cotts saved us! Hoping he can do one better and get us into a play off final against Swindon!

    Why are you so confident that Orient and Yeovil will not finish in top ten?
    There are no apparent reasons why they not do this.

    Leyton Orient had a fluky season. Would be very surprised if they can keep it up for this season coming, as for Yeovil, like Orient they had a fluky season, but unlike Orient they went up. They'll come back into this league and just avoid relegation IMO. . .

    Orient narrowly missed out on play offs last season, I wouldn't write them off just yet

    'Lower odds on us getting relegated than winning the league'

    Are you surprised ?

    4 chances to go down - only 1 wins the league.

    Phrases like hard difficult etc for next season are all relative...

    this year we had 3 teams until orient faded , that were well above the rest, the top 6 were pretty much the top 6 throughout from about game 10 the rest were average 22 points covering 16 teams, whilst 18 points covered top 5

    there is 24 teams all just average or just above average.... maybe Sheff will be another Wolves BUT THE REST WILL FIGHTING LIKE TADPOLES IN POND RAPIDLY DRYING OUT!

    ps
    3 for promotion!

    interesting is 12/1 to win it (sheff 6/1 pne and peterbro 8/1)

    11/2 to be promoted (sheff pne and peterbro 12/5)

    8/1 to be relegated ( sheff pne and peterbro 33/1 )

    why are Port Vale slated for relegation, more so than Crawley and Notts County and Oldham ? Seems very harsh on Port Vale who didn't struggle this season at all.

    Scunthorpe came up automatically but are going to finish below Fleetwood, who came up via the pay-offs. Why would that be?

    I think if we finish in 11th place, there will be some very unhappy people on this forum.
