For what it’s worth, I think we’ll be ok - but not taking any chances and a loss to Shrewsbury would see the odds shorten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Tram Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 They're the seventh "worst" odds. Does that mean that we're seventh most likely to be relegated. That's not very cheering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon mid table but you never know 🤷♂️. Yes. Cash out if we scrape a draw against Blackburn. If you’re not so brave cash out tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has used a Super-computer to predict the final table for the coming Championship season . Results being fed in over 1,000 times. They have only 4 teams to finish below us . Blackburn to finish 3rd bottom , so important 1st fixture . They say we will only get 2 more points than Plymouth , which I think is an absolute joke .

Ambitious Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 A lot of the predictions coming out now largely seem to insinuate that the bottom three will consist of three from four teams: us, Blackburn, Oxford and Plymouth. Portsmouth, Cardiff, Swansea and Preston get an occasional mention. The bookies also have Millwall as potentially down there, albeit there seems to be absolutely no fear on their part or any prediction they could be in trouble. I know Wednesday finished the season well under Rohl, but objectively speaking their squad is far from great so I would have them as potentially down there too. jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get people fall for the current in vogue, smart, well-spoken manager, but think that many people are over-rating a Portsmouth team that only finished 5 points ahead of us, have lost star loanees Alex Robertson & Abou Kamara, and have done less impressive incoming business than we have so far.

We need to be looking at finishing above Portsmouth & Oxford for a start. There's nothing that either of those teams have done so far that suggests we can't do this. At least one of last seasons championship is bound to drop, with Plymouth & Blackburn looking the most obvious to do so. jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Ramtastic Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 I think Plymouth will be ok. Rooney with a full preseason and his own signings might be a different proposition that what we saw at DC and Birmingham. He is good at galvanising teams under difficult circumstances so I think they will have enough to be safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would consider that the three relegated sides are likely to come from the following: Cardiff, Sheff Wed, Preston, Millwall, QPR, Swansea, Blackburn, Derby, Oxford, Plymouth and Portsmouth. Bristol City and Watford have cases where they could struggle, but should have enough. Cardiff & Sheffield Wednesday fans are fairly optimistic ahead of the new season, though, but I'm not sure. I guess they're anticipating more players coming in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimtastic56 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Bristol city are hard to predict this season . Consistent for a couple of seasons but many have them to struggle this year. Can’t see Max Bird walking straight into the team , but a new coach could do him wonders. For me , they are a top half team . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
