    As for a few surprise strugglers, maybe Ipswich, Sheff Wensday, & Wolves.
    The relegation pack? Burton, bolton, bristol city, Millwall, theres always a surprise team so I will pick Hull because they are a shambles and could do a Wigan. onthe edge but mid table - Cardiff, brentford, not sure about your lot, barnsley were certainly a surprise last year and though they have sold players on, you usually pick up some useful loans so I think lower mid table. QPR are a conundrum, could be top 6 or bottom 6. Sheff Wednsday have a good manager and have strengthened their team, expect them to be top 6.

    Forest will be mid table upwards, possibly better than we think. Ipswich will be solid mid table - not much money but McCarthy has been there done that its dull its predictable but ultimately he will do what he is paid to do, keep the club in the championship on a shoe string.

    Wolves could go either way, an unknown manager but plenty of dosh, I don't see them in the relegation struggle, but on the fringes of the play offs.

    If i was going to have an outside bet for promotion now(either auto or via playoff), to get the best price I'd go for Sheff Wednesday.
