    Momentum from last season from winning the play offs (It's what kept us up last season). They also have Schumacher who is a top manager.  Blackburn, Preston and Lincoln are my picks for relegation.

    You really don’t want to be playing a newly promoted side (especially away) early doors.

    Did I hear that right, Preston spent 7m on Devine?!

    This league might be a lot tougher than people initially thought.

    Or, there’s a lot more shit in the league that we thought. 

    Hard to judge in week 1 either way

    I'd say closer than people think.

    "Around" 6m was the price reported at the time.

    That Bolton squad just looks like relegation fodder. Erhanon will probably make the jump but there's not a lot else in that squad that would concern me. 

    May be best to wait a while...

    Charlton fans deciding how clubs are going to do over 46 games after watching the 1st half of the 1st match is comical.

    Carry on if you enjoy it !

    No different to any other season, the Championship is a bonkers League, its why there isn't any point worrying about promotion / relegation even in February, provided you're not massively cut adrift.

    Ridiculously early to judge when they're playing at home to an average side who are expected to struggle. Leicester lost 1 of their first 10 games last season and went down.

    Let's see where teams are after 8 games when we stop for the 3 week international break.

    I agree conceptually but this league is harder than last season

    If Tyreece had a good few weeks:
    The Parachute money for Wolves, Burnley and West ham and the top clubs in the Championship trying desperately to reach the promised land then stranger things than multi millions being spent on a youngish winger like TC to play cameo roles wouldn't surprise me.

    No way would Campbell be played as a wing back and no way should CAFC.

    I really hope that 4-2-3-1 works for Charlton because we need to evolve.

    Feels like almost the whole league is playing 4231 or a slight variation of now

    I'm surprised that Theirry Small hasn't come off the bench in an attacking wide position.
    Maybe I over rated him because I thought he would have a better season in 25/26.

    Has selling captain Ben Whiteman to Wrexham deflated the Preston team ?

    Small comes on with 12 minutes to go after the Preston striker decided to pass when he could see most of the goal 🤦🏻‍♂️

    Devine is a good player, difference was last season he had Dobbin & Jebbison in front of him which helped him massively. Think Preston are in big trouble. Then again I thought Blackburn would be, but they were excellent last night

    And ref blows for FT from the free kick. Bolton win 2-1 and temporarily go top of the league.

    Excellent cross from Small and somehow Preston player managed to miss from close in.
    FT 2-1
