Top ones are all too low, bottom ones are all too high.

Plus the championship is nicely random, so one of your top six is going to end up fighting relegation because of matters beyond our possible knowledge at this moment.

They are priced that way bbecause the bookies know it is unpredictable anf they protect their downsides. Definitely money to be made - but as you say, picking the right ones is key. But that's kind of the question :D

Cardiff, Fulham and Wigan will all finish above Derby for starters.

Huddersfield dark horses for me. Rotherham will stay up with ease, Brentford will also stay up.

Millwall, Leeds, Charlton, Birmingham, Blackpool all give me at least an iota of reassurance that Reading might not necessarily go down.

The Rouge Why the pro-Huddersfield feeling folks?


Why the pro-Reading feeling from you?

Huddersfield have a decent manager, good stiking options and a decent team with a year's experience at this level under their belt. Tenner says they finish above Reading.

Just wanted to know the rationale.

Yeah Vaughan and Nakhi Wells could be decent up top. I am not a massive fan of Stead and they have a striker called James LOLley.

I love Norwood and Clayton (if he stays), Lynch is decent buy worry about their defence.


For Reading, I guess its a gamble on signing a could that will make the difference, McLeary playing 2/3rds of the season + 2-3 players emerging from an impressive youth set up.

We will see.

Happy to have a tenner with you on it.

I'd like to officially withdraw my backing of Huddersfield, now that Adam Cl8n is off to Boro.

I too thought that Huddersfield had a decent manager. They have now shot themselves in the foot, however, and i think that the disruption will affect their season.

I'm glad we're playing them in a weeks time, hopefully they won't have got their act together again by then.
