Stability will be factored into it, stable clubs have less risk as a whole. It's not the right odds but I wouldn't go laying it at 9/4, as it's a dead tight league. Pick any 3 from the 12 shortest odds and you'll probably have as much of a chance as any other guessing it.
I agree what do Sky know, I can't remember them tipping Bournemouth for promotion last year. Half the time they say it just for the sake of saying something, trying to make themselves look knowledgeable. Half of them at Sky, BBC and ITV so call sports experts don't know what day it is!!!
It's too early to call, however if I had to pick three it would be Rotherham, MK Dons and Brentford.
Brentford? Really?
There's always a team that's expected to have a good season because they made the playoffs, but end up in the bottom half of the table, (i.e Wigan and Brighton last year) and with Warburton gone and surely a couple of their best players going, you never know!

On that logic, Derby at 18/1 look tempting to me...

We don't even know what our starting lineup will be in our first game, as half of them are not even signed yet.
Same for many other Champs teams.
Be happy.
MillwankBirminghamReckon Karl Robinson and MK Dons will either be this seasons Brentford OR they'll be in a relegation battle
