Top 3, next 4, last 2; the ups and downs of Football
 

In advance (and anticipation) of the fixtures coming out tomorrow, let's have your predictions

(1) for the teams who will occupy the automatic promotion spots from League One at the end of the coming season,

(2) for the four sides to contest the Horrors of the Play-offs, and

(3) for the two poor mutts who end up GreasyPoling into the Abyss of Oblivion which is Ligue Deux

And may the Voodoo Gods of Football watch over you all :eek:

Last time I did this we were in League Two, which is why I mistakenly headed it "Top 3, ...."

Re: Top 3, next 4, last 2; the ups and downs of Football
 

Stanley and Sunderland to go up automatically
Pompey, Wigan, Ipswich and Charlton play offs
Morecambe, Wimbledon, Cheltenham and Shrewsbury to greasy pole

Re: Top 3, next 4, last 2; the ups and downs of Football
 

Really surprised Sheffield Wednesday not mentioned to go up by automatics or play offs.
All in the clear now embargo lifted there will be moves in the market soon.
£10k a week for Wyke might get beaten soon hahaha !

Re: Top 3, next 4, last 2; the ups and downs of Football
 

Like Wigan then look s like they learn no lessons no sympathy from me if either go tits up again.

Re: Top 3, next 4, last 2; the ups and downs of Football
 

yes, some clubs have always known nothing about recruitment that does not have a big check behind it. all of these clubs could have signed any of our better players if they had wished to but the spend, spend, spend culture in the club will never go away.

Re: Top 3, next 4, last 2; the ups and downs of Football
 

Blackburn Rovers the club who,s fans famously revolted against the Venkys have just published their last 2 years accounts Venkys have pumped another 32 million pounds in and wages are currently £190 against every £100 earned Venkys lose interest and Rovers without a rescuer could be goosed like many others crazy world of football,s economic,s.

Re: Top 3, next 4, last 2; the ups and downs of Football
 

any owner could lose interest at any time, however with a foreign owner the chances are much greater. if i was a rovers fan plus some other clubs i,d be scared everyday i woke up that something bad may have happened overnight.

Re: Top 3, next 4, last 2; the ups and downs of Football

Re: Top 3, next 4, last 2; the ups and downs of Football
 

Sunderland prob on course to beat Wyke’s 10k wage if they sign Alex Pritchard lol. He was rated 11m only 2 years ago! Funny that Wyke has gone to a league rival that’s a kick in the teeth for Sunderland.

Re: Top 3, next 4, last 2; the ups and downs of Football
 

He's had three years there Tom probably about the earnings nothing else.

Re: Top 3, next 4, last 2; the ups and downs of Football

Re: Top 3, next 4, last 2; the ups and downs of Football
 

We are at present on course unless we drastically go worse to achieve 60 points which would do.

Re: Top 3, next 4, last 2; the ups and downs of Football
 

Plymouth @ Wigan Play Offs Rotherham, Oxford,Sheff Weds,Sunderland. OUTA Here. Crewe,Morecame. Doncaster.Shrewsbury.

Re: Top 3, next 4, last 2; the ups and downs of Football
 

think it would take some good signings in january to save crewe, morecambe and doncaster. sodding shrewsbury always seem to hit some form during the season to save them. quickly stanley get players back and reach safety as at the moment they could join the three mentioned.

On the home run now, how are predictions looking??? :)P
