Npower Championship Surprise teams

Now that we are a fair few games into the season, looking at the league table, which 2 teams have surprised you with their league positions in terms of better than/worse than you expected.

For me

Better than expected - Udders, having sold Rhodes I thought they would be in the bottom three.

Worse than expected - Wendies, they had a good spend up and I think Jones is a good manager for this level.

    Think it's been covered with Palace, Hudders, Birmingham and Bolton.

    My other nomination for "worse" though is Blackpool. Looked like they were going to storm the league after 2-3 games, can't seem to find regular wins since.

    I think most of us (myself included) badly underestimated Barnsley.

    I thought that Ipswich would be doing better.
