Anybody still think we're going down? Depends on injuries and suspensions to key Players.

For a team with a financially strapped Chairman (won't say potless), a Head Coach with a significant number on here want out and a recruitment team described as poor at best there seems to be a awful lot of optimism on here which needs to be stopped now!

It's a competition. Instead of all the criticism of the positive predictions, put yours in and stop whingeing about other people's efforts. Then you can prove them all wrong!

Now that the transfer window has ‘slammed shut’ and team squads are finalized,I thought we could have a competition to see who could best predict the final Championship Table at the end of the season. You get 24 points for predicting the exact position, 23 for missing it by I position, 22 for missing it by 2 positions and so on. For example I predict Fulham to be #1. If they are then I get 24 points. If they finish last I get 1 point. So if you peg every position correctly you would get the maximum number of points (576). To save you having to type out all the teams just hit the quote button on this post, change the setting at the bottom of that quote page to PREVIEW from BBCode, delete all this preamble so just the table remains, and then replace each of my predicted positions with yours and hit post. Or just cut and paste the list below the table. Submissions must be in by Sep 10th. I will post a ‘How is it going’ table listing everyones points and positions at the end of each week if enough participate.

I understand, but it takes 3 times as long to enter over 600 lines of data, plus more chance of errors compared to using my original format. Having said that, I don’t mind if this is the only way you can format it. By the way, where’s your prediction?
