2024/25 League Prediction Thread

25th.

-1000?

I reckon Donny will be heavily fancied but I'm not sure it will go aswell for them as people will expect having two close to 40 year olds as star players either end of the pitch seems a bit of a stretch to me - Clifton and Sbarra on paper are good signings on paper but both have only done well in the NL for the majority of their careers . I am interested to see how it goes there as I like McCann as a manager + it was good how their fans & board stuck with him through a long bad patch but I'm not sure they make top 7 .

We certainly aren’t dependent upon Wood and Sharp. Wood made a massive difference in the second half of last season when he came back from injury. We have Ironside so Sharp will have to be at the top of his game to oust him, Miller and Close will be like having 2 new players next season, we’ve added pace in Gibson and then we got Yeboah on loan which has totally bemused Bristol City fans as they fully expected him to be in their first team squad. I know we will be far fitter this season and McCann told all the contracted players at the season end that he wanted to win the league next season and if you aren’t up to it don’t come back. He’s got the players he wants early, they’ve all been given individual plans to follow before returning for pre season so if we don’t go up it won’t be for the lack of planning

What's the most likely reason for not going up at this stage?

Not getting enough points you'd imagine.

They might bottle the second leg of the playoffs at home

Have their predictions been updated?

I quite fancy Swindon and Tranmere to do well this season, which means those two will probably be relegated.

MK, Donny, Notts, Port Vale, Chesterfield fighting for the top three.

Yeah think Adkins is a decent manager , att this level a decent manager seems to be more important than players to an extent . I agree with Swindon higher mid table now i reckon , signed loads of lumps which should suit league 2 if they play to their strengths
