We've had many a thread about those teams that could well push for a top six place. As I have posted on another thread, it may well be harder to predict who ISN'T likely to be in contention and / or relegation candidates. I'd start off with this Bottom of Championship Brighton Coventry Barnsley ----------- Watford Peterborough Derby What says you?
Teams with not a hope in hell of promotion: Barnsley Bristol City Coventry City Crystal Palace Derby County Doncaster Rovers Peterborough United Watford
This post makes me smile a lot actually ! As LancsYorksHampsLondonITFC has suggested, 8 teams he thinks don't have any chance. I only make that the 16 who could go up, what a ridiculous league !
It is probably going to be harder to predict this season that it was last season............and bare in mind not many would have chosen the 3 that actually went up! Most would have maybe got 1 of them at the most
I wouldn't have bet on any of the three last season - and no-one would've backed Blackpool, which means that there are really 24 teams in with a shout!
Hamps I reckon that your 8 is pretty much bang on. I am not so sure about Pompey either. Brum may also struggle with their money problems.
