    I presume that's for winning it?

    I'd say it's about as expected.

    My thoughts?

    Why does a Reading fan care what a Barnsley fan thinks about a division Reading aren't competing in?

    I might go on a Reading site and ask them to discuss the Swiss Challenge League.

    Bit unfair. A lot in fact. daib0 goes on a lot of fans forums, he's welcome here IMO, brings some interesting stuff.

    Don't worry, I thought as you're fairly highly placed it might be good news, if they had you down at the bottom I wouldn't have come on! In fact, f-all happening in the Thames Valley at the moment, it's nice to look in and see what's happening elsewhere!!


    Anyway, more ... this is much more complete -

    Shrewsbury at 20/1 lol. I'd be very surprised if they stayed up tbh, couldn't name you one of their players.

    It makes a change for us to be amongst the favourites, we're used to being overlooked.

    Darren McKnight, Jordan Clark and Liam Lawrence all play for Shrewsbury. They have some very good playera like Collins and Goldson so I can see them surprising a few this season.

    Can usually barely even predict our own season let alone anyone else's. However, if I were to stick my neck out I reckon Swindon will drop off this season, ran out of steam at the end of the season, outclassed in playoffs and have released some good players.

    Think Coventry might do better than suggested by these odds. Think Mowbray is a decent manager and would definitely expect them to pick up from this year.

    I don't think Wigan, Millwall or Peterborough will finish in the top 6.

    Bradford could be well priced at 14/1, think they will surprise a few people.

    I reckon Bury are value at that price. Might have a small ammount on them finishing top half

    Also signed Mat Sadler from Rotherham. One of the best full backs in this league now he's come back into League 1 and is a great signing

    I reckon they're about right with the exception of Wigan who I don't think will be pulling up any tree's next season.

    The thing with Bury is, they've signed lots of well known players. From experience that doesn't usually end well. Although they should be well clear of the bottom 4, I'm not sure that Leon Clarke et al will see them be playoff chasers throughout the season.
