Crewe had a bad season with injuries last year Nemo....they will be in the top ten,and with 2.2 mill in the bank will probably spend a fair bit as the season progresses...only my opinion i know alot of people think they are bottom 4 material.

As boring as it may be, Leeds and Leicester isn't a bad bet for the top 2. I expect Brighton to be up there, but I'd say all 4 play-off places are there for the taking for anybody who wants them really.
As for relegation, I can see Stockport struggling, and Yeovil and Cheltenham are good bets to go down.
I expect us to finish in the 6th-10th region. Making the play-offs would be a great achievement this season, and I'm glad to see we're not getting carried away with talk about promotion! Although a decent enough 1-0 win against Tranmere would probably set all that off!

As we've found though having a few quid to spend doesn't mean anything, it's very hard to get players to swap this year, and it may be that they will use to pay the bills, so i still think crewe will be bottom 4.

Does Rodney Jack still play for Crewe? He was ace. I used to like watching crewe play Swindon back in the day.

1. Leeds United 2. Leicester City P. Huddersfield Town 9. Swindon Town R. Leyton Orient R. Hereford United R. Crewe Alexandra R. Cheltenham Town
Expect Franchise and Peterborough to be up there... I think they'll just miss out. Also, it's hard to predict the relegation places as all it takes is a team to go into administration and a crap team is all of a sudden saved!

1. leeds 2. Huddersfield ---------- 3. Oldham 4. Peterborough 5. Carlisle 6. Leicester (P)
8. swindon
----------- 21. walsall 22. Stockport 23. yeovil 24. cheltenham
I can see Leicester having a bit of an initial struggle coming to terms with the league and I suspect we'll see things open up a lot more similar to the Chump-ship this season where this not a lot between the playoffs and relegation spots.

Hereford won't go down. If anything they'll probably finish higher than us. A handy squad they have. Yeovil and Cheltenham are dead certs though.

I don't ever predict positions. I just have a pop at who i think will struggle and who i think will do well. Personally the fuss over Posh and MK is a bit OTT. Think they'll be mid-table at best. Leeds will only make the play-offs and again are over rated and over hyped. Top 2 will probably be Huddersfield and some other random team that no one expects. Probably Oldham or Tranmere.

I think we may just fall short of the play-offs this year
