The online pundits are placing us between 17th and 19th but mainly because they are unimaginative!
I thought I'd introduce some extra details to predict this time round.
Our position: 16th (perhaps I'm unimaginative as well!)
Outstanding player: Tabiner
Breakthrough player: Lunt
Champions: Notts County
Also promoted: Gillingham; MK Dons; Stockport.
Relegated: Crawley; Newport County.
Over to you!

Well recruitment is nowhere near complete with players needed for many positions our goalkeeper from Liverpool looks not a patch on previous recruitment and Booth is not ready so we are very weak there bearing in mind we can’t even give Richards away he is not the answer either, defensive recruitment has been average with only the CB Demitriou being the only piece of good business the FB looks average at best Adebisi and Offord need moving on we can’t give BSD away and Williams needs time. Midfield we need a ball winner badly and too many sick notes in both midfield and up front will expose are very small squad

I’m predicting 18th
Outstanding player Tabiner
Breakthrough player Billington
Champions Wrexham
Promoted Notts county, Stockport and Salford.
Relegated Grimsby and Crawley.
