I think QPR will start off well, and probably finish well

Why? There signings have been questionable and i firmly believe them buying paddy was a massive blessing in disguise for us. Plus there are first home game, and we have to win that simply for momentum. They dont have the fire power upfront in my opinion. If i had to make a bet i would genuinely say we will be one of them, Cardiff are a club in turmoil, if we play like we did at ipswich i can see us getting a few there. Middlesbrough & Burnley have to be considered and i kinda have a sneaky feeling about donny doing alright this season, they play the game the way it should be played and billy blunt will smash goals in for them. I think Swansea will dip this year, their over achievers and have always looked garbage at the lane.

I don't remember whether that was before or after we fluked a 3-0 win over them? In fairness, he was partly right, one team did exactly that, but a number of others finished above QPR and didn't even make the play offs. Len won't fancy QPR this season, Warnock's there and what a useless manager he was when we had him.

QPR,will be a strong home team this season,but traditionally dont travel well.I dont expect that to change.Could Forest build on last year?Middlesbrough could be up there but have they made to many changes to gel this season.Ipersonally dont think we'lle be far off despite the doom and gloom surrounding us at the moment.

Coventry tend to start well or maybe Norwich

 

[BladeInThatcham]

Norwich will fly off the blocks and lead the table for the first month at least.

Blessing in disguise for us? and how was that? in all honesty if we still had paddy, less time would of been spent trying to get a replacement which means more time for buying an actual defence. right you believe we are going to win home against qpr? warnock coming back? and a strong side, against our Shocking defence , last year for QPR was a complete write off , the club admitted that, but im sorry with our lack of defence bar from morgs i can see us failing miserably unless we can get more players in.

I dont really understand how you could possibly think we will set the pace this season? with the poor friendlies we've had ( i know they dont mean much but still..) we bassically dont have a defence, morgs and simmo being the only worthy players there, burnley will destroy us with the likes of patterson upfront. I cant see us being anywhere near the top 2 at the start of the season, our most creative player in the middle ( williamson) is out, and we have a defensive midfield bar britton as i havnt seen him play. and with KB ( hoofy). no chance

It will be qpr and burnley, and i agree with david and bladeinthatchem with norwich

 

[Toronto Blade]

Bristol could be another name that could surprise people.

 

[The One]

Does no one think Reading will be up there? I think they'll start well if they can carry on with the way they finished last season.

 

[Blades_257]

Coventry.

They always seem to start well, as does Aidy Boothroyd with his new clubs. They have a winnable first few games too.

 

[mattbianco1]

Not sure about starting off quickly but i think Middlesborough or Burnley for the title. We'll lose in Playoff semi-final to QPR.

Also, we will have over 40 points by xmas. You heard it here first

It'll probably be bloody Leeds...
