I think I spotted that supercomputer in town this week.
It looked uncannily like a sports journalist sitting in Wetherspoons.

So I got 2 out of 4 right (Bradford and Scunny), how did everyone else do? Fair play to whoever said Walsall back in November, great shout!

Ask me this again March, to early to say imo Yes, very true. And it has the danger of leaving you with egg on your face if we go down. But it’s all a bit of fun and as a gashead I guess I’m used to being wrong so, Wimbledon, Wycombe, Shrewsbury and Blackpool. UTG! Well done Jomo. And I was wrong. Very wrong. Not even one correct. UTG!

Don’t look past Bradford just because they are a big club, really struggling as of late and a 0-0 draw at home against us says it all. AFC Wimbledon for me seem certainties to go down too. They weren’t actually that bad when I saw them against us but they they seemed unsure of themselves going forward and defensively and without Lyle Taylor’s goals, I’d say survival for them would be a bridge too far. Shrewsbury, Scunthorpe and Rochdale are also candidates for the drop in my mind, I think us, Oxford and Plymouth will start to climb the league in the second half of the season and it will be clubs like these that will fill the bottom half. As for Walsall, they’ve had a great first half of the season, does anyone seriously expect them to get relegated?Yeah, bertram Amazing call, Bertram!! You’d have had good odds on that back in November. Hope you had a sneaky tenner on.

I wonder whether Div 1 has ever lost so many normally strong clubs in one season, all four of them would normally give Rovers a hard time home and away, surely Div 1 must be a weaker league next with those all relegated and Bolton potentially starting with a points reduction?
Looking at the top of the table how the hell did Charlton managed to snatched 3rd place, which should now really guarantee them a Wembley Play Off final.

Any four of a dozen teams could have dropped. Next season the remaining eight or so will probably be in the mix again - depending on the players they lose or how good their recruitment is. Good recruiment during the summer is vital for all these clubs and will determine who stays up next season out of those 8/10 clubs. Bolton and Bury could both be deducted points - Bury could already be favourites for the drop next season. Don't think too many would have predicted Luton to have ended up worthy champions or would have thought the four relegated would have dropped. Think next season will be dominated by 2/3 teams with probably 10 teams again all fighting to stay in the division.

By being the form team out of that 4 is why they were 3rd. Everyone talking about Sunderland v Portsmouth final but Pompey messed up two home games. Not guaranteed either, It’s a one-off, or two-off match. Pretty even but Charlton form team. UTG!

But Kenny Jackett has a habit of pulling off promotions and I wouldn't put it past Pompey to go up.

At the time Walsall were comfortably in the top half with a goalscorer in Andy Cook, I just couldn’t see it. Since though, they’ve had an absolutely abysmal second half of the season and deserved to be second bottom.

Since when did finishing 3rd guarantee you a play off final? Hence why I said "really" and not "will", Doncaster have been poor for a few months (apart from when they played us!) Charlton now on a real run of form, regardless beating Doncaster over two legs should be far easier than beating either Sunderland or Pompey. It looks like the bookies agree with me as Charlton are now joint favourites for promotion with Doncaster outsiders at 5/1.
