Apparently this guy does this each season.

Has us down to finish 10th this season and also predicts that Paul Hurst will leave the club.

Interesting read.  He has Akheem Rose down as playing for Dover and Weymouth though......

Didn't predict last year's champions, had them mid table along with Hartlepool. I think he's on an ego trip.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

I think his prediction of 10th is about right. I hope for better but ultimately, I think we will take a while to gel and hope to make a late push for the play-offs.

Top scorer is a tough one. Probably McAtee as things stand I guess.

His pick for champions last year finished 14th. The actual champions he predicted at 16th!

He’s no Mystic Meg.

Have to agree with this which is a bit of a downer when you consider the euphoria created with the arrival of the new owners.

I'd have us higher than 10th, but not a lot. His review is pretty accurate. And LJL for top scorer wouldn't be far off as it stands

  I think this guy deserves tremendous credit for putting all this effort and research into previewing the season. It would be very surprising if he didn't get a few things wrong given all that information about every team.

  As for his predictions, I give him lots of credit for being honest enough to show his predictions from this time last year since so many of them turned out to be way off. So looking at his predictions for Sutton and Hartlepool from last year, I think a prediction that we'll finish 10th may well translate to nailed on promotion!

   Let's face it, any predictions by anyone before a ball has been kicked in anger are just guesses based on names that most of us are not that familiar with anyway. It will be the teams that work effectively together that will rise to the top over time, and one or two long term injuries to key players can make a huge difference to any team at this level.
