2023/2024 Championship Table Prediction

[canuckterrier]

As per the past 2 seasons, the aim is to predict what the Championship Table will look like at the end of the season. Predictions may be somewhat difficult as the transfer window runs for another month before it ‘slams shut’.

You get 24 points for correctly predicting the exact position of any team, 23 for missing it by I position, 22 for missing it by 2 positions etc. For example, if you predict a team to be #1 and they are, you get 24 points. If they finish last you get 1 point. If you predict every position correctly you would get the maximum number of points available (576).

Ties will be decided by who is closest to predicting Town’s position. If still tied, the number of correct predictions (Hits) is used.

You can use the ‘quote’ function to cut and paste my predictions (next post) with yours. Or you can go the manual route and cut and paste the list below.

Submissions to be in before the Aug 5th kick-off against Plymouth.
As per usual, the intent is to post an update on how everybody is doing after each set of games.

For those also interested in predicting the score for every Town game, the DATM Prediction League is up and running again.
The rules are listed. Previous DATM Prediction League years can be found in the archives section.

Despite the lack of activity, Carlton Palmer believes that with Warnock in charge, Huddersfield will avoid relegation and have a safe finish in the lower half of the table.

"Huddersfield finished 18th last season in a miraculous turnaround under Neil Warnock in their final few games, where they looked odds-on certainties to be relegated," Palmer said when speaking to Football League World.

"Huddersfield have convinced Neil Warnock to stay on for the coming season, I still think that this season will be a tough one for Huddersfield, but having Neil in from the start gives them every opportunity to not be in the same position come the end of next season.

"I think they will be in the lower half of the table but they won't get relegated."

I'd definitely take that, but I'm sure we could find an extra point from somewhere 😉

It'll be interesting to see. I think only one Town player gets in that Leeds team and it's Nicholls. If we finish within a point of them it will be some achievement
