Don’t post often, so apologies if old ground, but who do you think are favourites to go up from Division 1?
From those that came down.
Leicester, despite iffy finances, should be up there.
Can’t see Sheff Wed going back up, they have even bigger shit to sort out, but with new owners, a maybe.
Oxford, bit of a yo yo club.
Luton finished strong, and noticed they appear to be resigning some of their key players.
Hate to say it but I think MK Dongs, will put in a strong challenge.
Thoughts?

It's going to be a tougher league this time around. Leicester, Sheff Weds and Oxford will all be strong, Luton, Wycombe and Plymouth all finished well last season, MK have money bags too

Every single season people say "the league is tougher this year" or "the toughest its been for ages"
There are always a few big clubs on the up, or coming down with parachute money.
There are always a few rich clubs
There are always a couple of shit or bust clubs.

No they don't, I spent last summer and season saying it was the weakest it has been for years and was our genuine chance to be promoted if it was ever to happen.
The year before I said it would be very tough, mind, quite rightly, as you had Birmingham and Wrexham spaffing money at it, alongside plenty of other big clubs spending lots too.

Every year I look at the team names and think at least 12 should be above us given their size and resources. But then there's always a handful of big clubs who do crap. So you can never tell.
A few underachievers last year might be better this year.
But a few different big clubs might do crap. We need to be at least in the mix with the mid size clubs and preferably at the top of them like last year (other than Lincoln).

I've seen people suggesting Russell Martin would be a decent appointment for Leicester which just proves people think you can come down here and take the absolute piss.
