The over-reaction on here to FourFourTwo's prediction was a bit embarrassing. We've all got predictions horrendously wrong in the past.
It's actually a great read for anyone who's looking to learn about the game outside of what you see on Sky Sports News.
I don't think their prediction last year was that outrageous, considering Powell had got nothing out of the players he inherited and the complete overhaul in the summer was a gamble with an unpredictable outcome

Agreed. Considering we had dropped about half a division each season for 5 years then freefall could have very well happened.
Norwich and Southampton have showed it is possible to climb from League One to the Premier League in just two years but Charlton may have to settle for consolidation after a quiet summer in the transfer market.
Hmm, can we sing "Number one in South London" already.
I find it hard to believe we've finish above the likes of Hull (under Steve Bruce who've spent a fair bit), Ipswich and Derby though...
Palace in 20th seem a bit low to me also, and if Bristol genuinely have 1.5m to buy Baldock, then 23rd sounds low for them? Having said that, I have a great deal of difficulty predicting who will be the weak and strong teams this season, as a lot of clubs seem much of a muchness
All that table tells me is how hard the Championship is to predict.
Although I think they've sold us a bit short - we have one of the best and most experienced managers in the league, with a chairman willing to back him. Not sure where they've got relegation from.
And I'm willing to bet each individual on here £100 - who reckons we will go down.

It's just one hack's personal opinion.
Just like you, he can't forecast the final Championship table - anymore than he can forecast this weekend's lottery results,
Enjoy seeing the season gradually unfold. It's much more interesting!
