Championship preview from Gab Sutton (writes a lot about EFL). Has us in 21st
Has us finishing 6th which obviously I’d be more than happy with. But he also mentioned that Alex Neil has managed Aberdeen, which he hasn’t, so probably take what this fella says with a pinch of salt
It’s not easy to write up 24 teams (72 as he’s done L1 and L2) without making any mistakes in fairness.
There’s a few exceptions but I think he’s got most teams in the right ballpark area
We shall see. My point is Millwall can have a poor season in the same way we can have a great one. There are a lot of unknowns.
As we know, with the championship, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns—the ones we don't know we don't know.
What the fuck do you know?
Oh, and i know that Gillingham aren’t in the conference

It’s more than “not easy” to accurately preview the respective chances of 72 teams, it’s basically impossible. But it temporarily satiates the never ending demand for content.

What language is this?
Ironically, you could say it’s been paraphrased from the language of the country you live in. If you genuinely don’t know where it’s from you might want to look it up.
Correct me but I think we've signed 9 players that are all unproven at this level.
It's exciting to have signed this many players (and paid good money for them) but have any of them excelled in the Championship???
Only 7 so far and Kaminski, Burke, Bell and JRC are all proven Championship players. Burke and Bell were promoted with Luton, and Luton signed Kaminski to be their PL GK. JRC has never played in L1.
Carey has Championship experience. Only Olaofe and Apter are stepping up for the first time.
I think 3G worded my own reservations incorrectly. They may have Championship experience but they have in fact been signed from League One, except Costello.
They all got relegated from the Championship having played against Championship teams who didn't upon their relegation see an opportunity to seize upon a player now in too low a league in their eyes.
We have to be clear about this, these players came to us because other Championship clubs have not been interested.
I said after promotion that I'd have to wait and see who we sign. My conclusion, despite all the excitement on this site, is still that logically we will finish in the bottom three.
We can hope that the sum of the parts is better than the individuals, and we can hope that our manager will get something extra out of them all. If so we could reach the gold of 20-21st place.
Otherwise we still have to be (one of ?) the favourites to go down. Sorry, I wish I could be more optimistic. I look forward to believable counter arguments to persuade me to feel so.
