    think it's one of the closest seasons because the teams who have gone down are all awful.

    1.Fulham
    2.Wolves
    3.Boro
    4.Reading
    5.Preston
    6.Wednesday (P)

    ty pal :kissing_heart:

    Agree though, have said elsewhere that Boro are the only one of the 3 that I think could challenge


    Ownership for Sunderland and Hull not really caring does not help

    not even sold on you, the options are just all awful this year

    Prestons an interesting one @Ash specially after losing Grayson and McGeady.

    It seems like it's more of a lottery than ever. Looking through the transfers so far on transfermarkt last night pretty much all the top teams from last season have brought in foreign players that I mostly don't know (despite having a fairly decent knowledge on EU football)

    Good for promotion chasing sides though not having a juggernaut like Newcastle essentially taking up 1/2 automatics before the season's even begun

    reason I go with Preston is, they've been progressing well over past couple of seasons. Main problem being goals, with Grayson's defensive foundations laid down and Neal being a more adventurous attacking manager I can see them definitely being the darkhorses this year.

    2 of our 3 signings have been from England pal ;)

    Definitely want a CM/ST/LB before the season starts, with Yann injured and Grabban going back we need another striker. Lost Williams to Hudds so need a box to box midfielder to replace him. And we need a LB, especially if we play with wing backs as Blackett is definitely not a wing back :joy:

    Loved Williams. Also didn't realise Grabban was only on loan, need to sign some firepowa boii

    I think Preston are a good shout for an outside bet, don't think the squad is good enough to go up though. Think they'll challenge for the play-offs, but will fall short at the end.

    Just found out Lynsey isn't doing the Championship highlights this year, and Colin Murray is doing it instead. Another reason to be glad we are out of this ❤️❤️❤️❤️ league.
