Here is my guess: 1 Burnley 2 Coventry City 3 Leeds United 4 Sheffield United 5 Portsmouth 6 Luton Town 7 Queens Park Rangers 8 Norwich City 9 West Bromwich Albion 10 Sheffield Wednesday 11 Middlesbrough 12 Watford 13 Preston North End 14 Derby County 15 Bristol City 16 Swansea City 17 Oxford United 18 Cardiff City 19 Sunderland 20 Millwall 21 Blackburn Rovers 22 Stoke City 23 Hull City 24 Plymouth Argyle Playoff winner: Luton
1 Leeds United 2 Burnley 3 Sheffield United 4 Luton Town 5 West Bromwich Albion 6 Middlesbrough 7 Coventry City 8 Bristol City 9 Sheffield Wednesday 10 Millwall 11 Cardiff City 12 Norwich City 13 Queens Park Rangers 14 Preston North End 15 Sunderland 16 Stoke City 17 Hull City 18 Portsmouth 19 Watford 20 Derby County 21 Blackburn Rovers 22 Swansea City 23 Plymouth Argyle 24 Oxford United Playoff winner - Sheffield United That was not easy. I think the top 4 just about pick themselves, beyond that, god only knows. I can see mid-table being the tightest ever in this league - so little to choose between them.
1. Burnley 2. West Brom 3. Middlesborough 4. Leeds 5. Luton 6. Watford 7. Seffield Utd 8. Coventry 9. Blackburn Rovers 10. Sunderland 11. Sheffield Wednesday 12. Derby County 13. Swansea 14 Norwich 15. Hull 16. Millwall 17. Cardiff 18. Queens Park Rangers 19. Portsmouth 20. Stoke 21. Preston North End 22. Bristol City 23. Oxford United 24. Plymouth Argyle Playoff winner - Middlesborough Top 2 to be a couple of wins clear of playoffs. A significant gap between 7th and 8th; with 8-15th with several points difference. Suspect there won't be a team on >90 points missing out on auto promotion though.
Bump. Thai got the top 2 correct, possibly SUFC too, if they win the play-offs Think a few of the teams had mares this season (Luton, Preston, Derby, Stoke) and couple others outperformed (Coventry/Bristol))
Currently my random guesses of WBA and Oxford have got me ahead, but in overall difference in position and actual Thai is winning hands down including getting the top 3 positions all nailed down. All of our biggest surprise was the demise of Luton. Northcity got no actual positions correct, but did get Burnley and Leeds in the top 6 with Plymouth relegated. We await the playoff final to see if Thai Canary can be crowned overall winner, so far Sheffield United look favourites to get into the final, can they help Thai to the crown?
