Scott129 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Not sure if there's already a topic where this has been mentioned but Sky Sports have published this guide/set of predictions for the forthcoming season. http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11689/8848719/championship-guide Has a little bit of info for each team, transfer incomings and outgoings and also their "chances". Here's what they said about us: "Last season was Derby's highest finish for six years as they ended the campaign 10th and seven points shy of the play-offs. Clough has strengthened his squad this summer and a top-six spot is a realistic target for the Rams." It seems as though we're flying under the radar a bit in terms of how other fans (including some of our own) see our chances of play-offs. If you look at the "professionals" though (pundits, writers, betting companies), a few of them have backed us as dark horses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also backed Ipswich and Leeds though I am not one to look at predictions of 'experts' it's anybodies guess - if we can learn to play outside of Derby, I have no doubts. I think that's the only prediction worth making. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uttoxram75 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 I'm not one to worry about the bookies. Whether they make us favourites to go up or down will have no bearing on our top 2 finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
