Title: League 1 Predictions 2009/2010
Post by: STFC4LIFE on Sunday, July 26, 2009, 11:31:10
Obviously not every teams squad is complete, but with less than 2 weeks to go, who do you think is going up and down?

Champions:Norwich
Runners Up: Millwall

Play Offs: Leeds, Franchise, Huddrsfield and Swindon :D

Relegated: Yeovil, Leyton Orient, Carlisle and Hartlepool

Early days as you say, but I think Orient are on the up under Geraint Williams. They've managed to keep hold of Mkandawire and have a few handy players (Demetriou, Smith, Thornton). I'm trying not to read too much into their 6-1 humiliation of Newcastle, but I think it's a decent indicator that they're heading in the right direction. Could make the play offs I reckon. The rest are a fairly good shout for relegation.

Got a feeling Udders will fall short too - just outside the play offs. I'd say we could probably manage tenth, possibly even a flirt with the play offs. I'll still back us to go up though :D

Chartlon might struggle this season as well. I know its pre-season only but they lost 2-0 to Barnet and Paul Furlong scored. They are financially in the doo doo and having such a big ground with loads of empty seats could mean that there home form is poor.

Champions - Millwall

Runners up - Norwich

Play Offs - Leeds - Exeter - Franchise  - Charlton

Swindon 17th (Unless we get a striker in or 2 in, I dont think we will concede many but we won't score many which will see us at the wrong end of the table at the min)

Relegated - Carlisle - Stockport - Leyton Orient - Yeovil

I expect Norwich and Millwall to be up at the top, and MK might push for automatic promotion too. I'd love to see Huddersfield fall short. 7th on goal difference would do nicely. Yeovil and Stockport will definitely have a hard time, and I do wonder if it will be one step too far for Exeter.

I wouldn't be so sure as some about Leeds this season. They've failed to do it a couple of times already and to be honest I don't see why things will be any different this season. As for us, I'd say 9th or 10th as long as we can get one or two strikers in soon.

If Leeds go up this coming season, and we don't, then I think it is fair to conclude that Jonathan Douglas is a jinxed player.

I think that last Play-Off spot could go to anyone really.

Leeds, Norwich, Charlton & Huddersfield are the teams expected to do well... After that more-or-less anyone in this division could compete or struggle.

Why does everyone think Leeds are going to do well? Isn't their squad going to be worse this season?

I reckon Norwich will win the title and after that its anyone guess, lots of teams that could do well and for whom one decent signing, a bit of luck and a good run will be the difference between mid table and promotion.

I can see Southampton really struggling, they'll be in the drop zone for at least the first month of the season and if they get off to a bad start it could just keep going downhill for them.

Leeds will do well because they have a better manager this time around,just like we have.

In my defence, that was a question rather than a statement that they'd do shit.

Champions - Norwich CURRENTLY 2nd

Runners Up - Charlton  CURRENTLY 3rd

Playoffs -
Leeds,  CURRENTLY 1st
'Udders,  CURRENTLY 5th
Milwall,  CURRENTLY 7th
Colchester  CURRENTLY 4th

Swindon - 14 (based on then current squad)  CURRENTLY 6th

Relegated -
Yeovil,  CURRENTLY 15th
Stockport,  CURRENTLY 24th
Gills,  CURRENTLY 17th
Wycombe  CURRENTLY 23rd

Not too bad really Leeds doing better than I thought. We are dissrupting the top 6 positions but Milwall are on out tail.

Relegation wise, Yeovil are doing better than I though as are the Gills. It's a marathon not a sprint :) Time for it to change starting next Saturday (Weather permitting).

Sitting on the fence makes me look clever.
