Last year it was us, the previous year Bournemouth and I believe Burnley the year before. Two of the three got promoted.

I'm plumping for moneybags Bristol City being the surprise package this year.

Others?

If Fulham can shore up a leaky defence I think they may be in with a shout.

I'll go for Brentford (Egan is a good signing).

Forest will be a force I think. It will be a major achievement for Albion to go up considering the big guns (and funds) around us, but I think we can do it.

Huddersfield might do quite well, their German manager seems to know what he's doing plus they've replaced Joel Lynch with a new record signing centre back.

Agree with this. Second half of last year they were just outside the play offs and, if they can keep Kodija, him and Tomlin will be a very good strike partnership.

Huddersfield, Preston and Brentford making some shrewd signings, can be considered dark horses

Huddersfield maybe.

No idea who they've signed but their new manager got them playing some quality stuff.

Seems most of the outsiders in the division have now been nominated. Interesting season coming up
