Been churning through the odds and can't see much of value.
I fancy a fiver on Charlton to be honest, for a change they seem to have strategy in signing players, a decent enough manager and a bit of stability from the back end of last season. Also cleared out a lot of deadwood and going with a smaller but more constructed squad.
Stockport have been going about their business and appear to have built a really solid but not spectacular League One squad. Love Dave Challinor too.
Birmingham are obviously the favourites and been plentiful in their signings, but they will take a bit of time to gel, have a new manager, etc.. should still win it on paper.
Rotherham still haunt me and i can't talk about them. Especially with the return of the big guy.
Wrexham i think will have the players but might find it a bit more of a struggle than expected. Likely playoffs.
According to the bookies, there appears to be a clear bottom 4 - Crawley, Shrewsbury, Cambridge, Northampton. And then a 3 or 4 doodling along, Stevenage, Mansfield, Exeter, and Burton. Probably can't argue with that bottom 8 teams. I'd be horrified if we got dragged into it though.
Then you have the middle 8 - The mighty O's, Bristol Rovers, Reading, Lincoln, Wigan, Stockport, Wycombe, Blackpool. I reckon you can split these 8 in two groups, the haves and have nots. O's, Bristol Rovers, Lincoln being the poor relations to Reading, Wigan, Blackpool, all bigger clubs and should be punching higher, Wycombe, Stockport and money to throw around.
Anyway.. to sum it up.. i reckon a fiver on Charlton to go up and my dark horse is Stockport.
And we will finish 16th. Which although lower than this season will actually be an improvement in relative terms.
