Fuck me if nothing else he definitely needs a proof reader, apart from that not sure it says a great deal. Bar coming across as some sort of Franchise fan fiction at the start it seems completely random in comparing what he is saying about each club and where he thinks they will finish. As with all these things I'm never convinced that people have the knowledge of lower league players they claim to have.

As for this season, based purely on the principle that whenever I think we will do OK we are invariably shite and vice versa I suspect we will be OK and possibly surprise a few?

Spot on, take it with a pinch of salt it’s just another opinion from someone who is guessing and doesn’t know anymore than the rest of us. As for STFC it’s more hope than expecting to do well this season.

I like how your hanging your hat on a striker that hasn't played for us for quite some time Jim! 😉

Let's try and curse a few clubs...

League Two
League Two winners: Gillingham (19th)
Promoted: Milton Keynes (18th), Chesterfield (11th)
Playoffs: Carlisle (24th), Doncaster (5th), Walsall (1st) & Colchester 8th) with Carlisle winning
Who's going down?: Morecambe obviously (23rd), Grimsby (7th)
Division Top Scorer: Elliott Nevitt (2 goals in 28 games)

Swindon Town
Where will Swindon finish?: 12th (15th)

Well, even by my standards that is spectacularly wrong.

Graun's predictions list us as relegation contenders, but Minturn as one to watch for the whole division. Odd one.

They were bang on about us, well for the most part!

Swindon Town
Where will Swindon finish?: 14th

Player of the season: Ollie Clarke

Yeah not brilliant. Donny may get promoted which may scrape some of the ouef off the visage. Play offs is possibly 3 from 4, but my Carlisle shout, oof!

Swindon to finish 14th looks a solid pick. The less said about Glatz being top scorer the better mind you!

League Two
League Two winners: Colchester
Promoted: Port Vile, Dongs
Playoffs: Doncaster, Gillingham, Fleetwood, Carlisle - Doncaster to win
Who’s going down: Newport, Bromley
Divisions Top Scorer: Lyle Taylor
 
Swindon Town
Where will Swindon finish?: 9
Top goalscorer: Paul Glatzel
Player of the season: Paul Glatzel


What was I smoking?  Doncaster, Port Vile or Colchester might go up, but a 9th place finish, that ain't going to happen.
Expect Glatzel to move on, a nothing season for him but has the ability to do well. Didn't see Carlisle's struggle coming, they may just make it but will have to play out of their skins for the remaining games.
