It's way too early to say. Clearly Notts & Mansfield are accumulating good squads but too many clubs, including us, have unfinished business.

The way these things are done is:
1. Pick the 'biggest' club from those  relegated from the division above last season - BF Scum
2. Pick who was narrowly relegated (if not he same as 1.) - Oldham
3. Pick big spending clubs in division - Lincoln, Notts County and Mansfield
Perm 4 from those for promotion. To help you make the decision pick the ones most likely to be on the mainstream media's radar. So......
Automatic promotion: BF Scum, Lincoln, Notts
Play offs: Oldham

4. Tip the 'smallest' of the sides promoted from division below for relegation - Macclesfield
5. Tip a team who narrowly avoided relegation last season - Morecambe

6. For 'surprise package' pick club who lost out in play offs to struggle - Exeter

7. Town: notoriously unpredictable. If we've not been written off for promotion by the media we'll finish disappointingly low. But we're even unpredictable in our unpredictability.

I picked Accrington to be promoted. And Rotherham. And St Mirren.And Wolves.
Unfortunately I also bet that Chelsea would finish top 4 so the acca was killed.

As for predicting the forthcoming season....still to early. I fancy Town to do ok though. Play off contenders.

Town look less likely to be promoted this year imo with a mixed bag of mediocre players, no one player stands out as a threat up front Hooper, Cardwell, Robles, Cook and Rose as against Bogle, Amond,  Connell, Hearn or Hannah.
Failure to bring in a recognised  goal scoring player from any league will tell and leave us floundering.

All about opinions, and that`s mine

Shrewsbury didn't really have a goal scoring player last season and flirted with promotion (and if 3 teams went up automatically like our division, they would have). It's not all about having a central goalscorer like Wycombe and Accrington did as long as you get everyone else chipping in with goals.
