Cobi Budge.":319g0obv said:I quite like the fact that few are forecasting a top 7 finish for us (both our fans and other fans). Get the feeling it'll be an under the radar job.
The squad isn't all there but we've made some very tidy acquisitions, who seem to be acquitting themselves well.
For the first time in a long time, the fan base are actually positive and excited going into a new season.
Anyway, my L2 prediction:
1. Wycombe
2. Cambridge
3. Oxford
4. Pompey
5. Plymouth Argyle
6. Notts County
7. Stevenage
23. Mansfield
24. York
Wycombe - no chance, their opportunity was last season where they gambled on a small squad of talented players and got lucky with their injuries. They won't be so lucky again this year I imagine.
I'd stick Yeovil in there purely because of the Sturrock factor.
Luton will also be there or thereabouts, the only reason they weren't in the playoffs last season is because they collapsed at the end of the season, I can't see that happening again.
I'd also not underestimate Bristol Rovers, they were being predicted top spot before they went down and although I wouldn't see them as favourites because of their relegation I wouldn't bet against them going for back-to-back promotions this year.
Portsmouth, meh everyone's had them as favourites since they came down, of course this might be their year but I can't see it.
