Will I be alone here next season?

I used to watch Shrewsbury Town when I were a lad.

Confident of bouncing back Chompy?  Dwight Gayle will leave do you think?

Looking likely that most of the squad will stay put, including Dwight. Tommy Rowe will be sold if the right bid comes in - club policy when they only have a year left and won't sign an extension - but otherwise he stays. Zakuani wants out but isn't a major loss; better news that Bostwick is going nowhere.

This is far and away out best squad in this league - barring a glut of unexpected leavers - and we should go straight back up. We'll score a lot of goals and Gayle should be no bigger than single figures for top goalscorer imo.

This is a poor division and way less competitive than the Champo. Expect us and Wolfs to crush.

In- Bradford city

In  -  Walsall

Poshies been after Nicky Nacky Wells by all accts. Emile Sinclair + ££££ my sauces tell me.

Assombolonga will be joining a L1 team on loan from Watford this season I am told.  He's just about our best prospect aside from Hoban.  Sheff Utd are front-runners.

Yeah watched him a lot this year when he was with Southend. 

A good prospect imo

I think wells will stay unless a big championship club comes in for him, last I heard Huddersfield were looking into him! I would be happy if we got £1,5million for him!

Class player will do well this season if we keep him and Hanson together

Sheff Utd announce the signing of 4 players today;
"Sheffield United sign striker Febian Brandy, defenders Sean McGinty and Jasper Johns and midfielder Stephen McGinn, reports BBC Radio Sheffield."

Good signings?

In with Carlisle.

Hope to see a few away matches this year.

You are welcome to vally parade I think the 2nd weekend, you can come see how your ex player wells is getting on

Hi

Sigh suppose Wells must go down with Paddy Madden as one Greg Abbots og's.

I hear Greg was a hero at Bradford.

Not sure if Bradford is one of the games I can get to but who knows.

Good luck with your season.

If this is true Chompy is going to be crying himself to sleep  ;)

McGinn was showing real promise at Watford, but suffered an 18 month layoff with a cruciate injury.  This stunted his progress and he was swallowed up with all the Udinese midfielders joining and never got a look in after he recovered around December time.  He's a bit light weight - could be a problem in L1 but good luck to him.

Bradford sign  jason kennedy whats super news,  but it looks like nathan doyle is going :(

In - Brentford

Pain of last year has just about subsided, and I'm now bullish about our chances this season.

Really like Brentford.  My 3rd team after Udinese ;)

Bradford pick up mark yeate from Watford, does anyone know much about him?

If that's the Mark Yeates who was once at Colchester, he was outstanding a few years back but always looked susceptible to getting a bit chunky. If he's fit, he'd be an outstanding player in this league.

crap, overweight and disinterested when on loan with us

flitted in and out of the Watford first team last year

definitely a case of if he is motivated, especially with regard to fitness

i am really starting to like the look of the Bradford squad

Yeates can get away with a lack of fitness at this level, he is a player that needs to be loved and also needs the team built around him to a degree

At his best he is easily championship quality if he is 80% motivated he will be a good signing any more will be your player of the year.

Really can't wait to get this season under way now

So happy that we  still have Davis and jones and (wells at the moment)

If we get to the transfer deadline with wells still here we will have a good season

Just seen the news Doyle has signed a 1 year deal today

#goingup. 

Fergie definitely fancies Nicky Nacky and has ££££ to burn now Dwight's been sold. He also has Emile and Tyrone to offer and I wouldn't be at all surprised if Wells winds up at London Road.

Really can't see him leaving for another league one side ATM

I really didn't rate Yeates at Watford.  Did a job when called upon, but suffered in comparison to the players around him.  Probably will do well in L1. 

Mark Yeates;

Upside - very good free kick taker.

Downsides - slow, salad dodger.

Well done to the Coventry City fans protesting about the new groundshare at Northampton Town. By travelling to protest at Northampton Town.  ::)

 

Sounds like Mark Schwarzer  could be making his return to bradford city, I loved this 1st time he played for us

Football Lge confirm Coventry to play home games at Northampton for "initial period of 3 seasons". FL express "deep regret" at Ricoh debacle

Cliffs on Ricoh problems and what the council actually plan to do with the stadium if not for Cov City?

The football league are a joke for letting this happen, plus can you see the council giving them planning to build another ground?

Coventry City Cobblers does have a certain ring to it :)

Singed for Chelsea.

Bradford have rejected an offer from Peterborough for Striker Nahki Wells. The offer was tabled by Barry Fry to one of the clubs co-owners but was subsequently rejected

Wells still has two years left on his contract.

Source: Simon Parker, Telegraph & Argus

Just seen his tweet now, says it was two weeks ago the bid, once again I can't see him leaving to another league one team!

Word is Aaron McLean is on his way back to Posh.

have you seen much of Raffaele De Vita play? 

more when he was at Livingston tbh which is a while ago now

Are you signing him? would be another good addition

looks like it, well he is over with the team in Ireland atm, he got a good write up the other day! 

Brentford have recently signed a player who played 30 games for Villarreal and a Czech Republic international winger. Matthew Benham isn't keen on taking the chance of the playoffs this season. Can't see us not going up to be honest. Have a chunk on at 14s for the win and 9/2 for promotion.

Pop this on tikay's thread pls

Unfortunately they're now best price 11s which is potentially still a squeeze of value  and 4s to go up.

GK lee camp played for us last night in nets really hope we can get him signed, might even back us to go up now

Assombalonga SOLD to Peterboro.  Very surprised at that.  We have first option to buy him back but even so.

Any feel for the fee Chompy?

Will be looking to back Brit as L1 top scorer.  Will get a hatful in a free scoring posh team imo.

Oi oi! Daragh produces the goods yet again. Watford only wanted to loan for the season initially but we put in a 'club record bid'. That'll be more than the £1.1m we coughed up for that waste of space Tyrone Barnett then. Bradford turned down a 'similar amount' for Nicky Nacky because they didn't need the ££ after the cup run last season. Happier with Assombalonga tbh.

This week is a big one for us. If we hold on to Tommy Rowe - Blackburn are chasing him and he's been after getting back op north for a while (only a year left on his contract and we couldn't turn down £1m+) - we'll crush imo. Assombalongalonga @ 12-1 or bigger a good bet imo.

Tomlin is as fit as I've ever seen him, Swanson likewise, and the Jack Payne/McCann midfield is as good as we've ever had. Also, keeping hold of Bostwick was a massive plus. All looking good at the moment and can't see beyond us, Brentford and Wolfies.

Assomolonga has greater potential than Wells imo.

Really surprised we let him go on a permanent.  Have just piled into Posh points at 72 on Spreadex (74 on Spin)

You fancy Wolves?  Dressing room divided has meant that they are going to have premier league players sitting on the sidelines (O'Hara/Johnson).  Might take Jackett a year to sort out the mess?

VC have Britt Assombalonga in their top League One goalscorer list...

at 40-1!

Crackerjack.

Stick it on TFT.

Gotta good 'un there Whelkdoom!

Posh'll win it by Xmas - mLoofah predicts.

Not a chance have you seen wells play? wells is not proven in this league but will score more then assombalonga this season

Pretty sure there's a side bet coming for someone here...

We've also signed Mark Little back up for another year, which is good news. That would soften the blow of Rowe going, if he does. Still rumours about Paddy McCourt joining us, even though he said he wanted to play in the Championship. McCourt, Tomlin, Assombalonga and Swanson could be insane.

Fatty Tomlin tho.

looking like the days of backing p boro over 2.5 blind every week could well be back this season

Bradford also snap up Raffaele De Vita ina 1 year deal

Yes - saw him play in your cup run.  The fact is he's 23, had one good season the year after being binned by Carlisle.  Assombalonga is 20 and scored goals last season at a similar rate to Wells in a weaker team.  I would be very surprised if he outscores Assombolonga this year now that Britt is playing for a better team than he is.

Bradford sign  Defender Matt Taylor on 2 year deal from Charlton

Really happy with our 2-2 draw, i really think Bristol will be up there at the end of the season, shows we can match the best!  in other news

Assomolonga  1
Wells             1

Very good result for Bradford agreed!

Wells scores and we win 4-0 we are going up!!!!

the usual after 2 games of the season

Perspective please. No doubt a team going places but not sure its quite Wolves/Brentford territory yet!

Seems a three horse race between Wolves, Brentford and Peterborough to me

Early signs are that one of this trio will win. This is not a competitive league at all. Gulfs are as big as in the Prem imo and I'm not sure the prices about certain teams to score 4+ and 5+ are in the right place.

Some quotes taken from Colchy and County forums:

Colchester United
"They were ruthless in punishing our defensive frailties."
"Posh have to be a good bet for promotion on that showing"
"a very good Posh side, who will be promoted if they play like that this season."
"Posh will go up with performances like that"
"Peterborough are a good side, but we don't have to play them every week - just remember that people."
" it's early days but if I was a gambler I would go and stick a tenner on them to win the League by Easter!
"They have some outstanding individuals who should not really be in League One."
"Posh cruised to a crushing win last night without the need to progress out of first gear"
"many teams will concede many goals against them this season."
"Peterborough showed superior fitness and their ability to take advantage when a team is on the ropes."

Notts County
"Men against boys today for me today."
"deserved their win and look a very useful side. Their support was superb too"
"I think Posh are one of the favs to go straight back up and they are scoring goals for fun"
"I'd love their 2 forwards in our side."
"their passing and movement off the ball showed the gulf in class between the two sides"
"luckily we haven't got to play them every week"
"can only see them going straight back up. "
"they are a class above us"
"Very impressed with the posh. They will stick 4 or 5 past most sides in this league.
"Pace, power, clinical finishing, fitness, structure, intelligeny effective build up"
"they had quality all over."

The guy is going to be a hero is today is anything to go by!!

YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCEsAZgUu2A

a fantastic strike

Good start from Bradford as well i agree with Chompy the top three are going to be very tough to stop being there at the end of the season.

Lol. I can just imagine Chompy is in Posh Heaven now, spending hours at a time on google alerts looking for this sort of stuff.

Agree Top 3 is out of the question, really think we could finish in the play offs we have such a strong team with a great bench now to

i would not say out the question

long way to go yet nothing is finalised after two games

Some superb finishing there coupled with some woeful defending  :(.

Great result today for us! News is wells will not be leaving for any price! Our number 2 has come out and said clubs have had 12 months to come and sign him we are not going to sell him 2 weeks before deadline day

So, let's say Blackburn sell Rhodes for £8m and come in with a £3.5m offer for Nikhi Nakhi? You think they won't accept?

Darragh says Lee Tomlin isn't for sale but if someone offers over £3m I'm pretty sure we'd take it.

Quite right too, such sums of money are HUGE for minnows & Conference-type teams such as Peterborough.

I really hope we would not sell this close to deadline day now! We would be fucked and no chance of going up if we did!!

Rumour is back about Nahki to Posh. Believe it when I see it though.

Also, this guy is firmly on the radar

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stefan_Scougall

Chomps - what do Penisboro do with all the transfer loot each year?

You seem to flog £10 mills worth of players each year (to dopes like Olly), surely your annual losses/ overheads aren't that high     ....     or is Darragh into Charlie & brasses?

Our crowds ain't great but Darragh still ploughs plenty of cash back in.

Our two strikers at the mo are both £1m+ players, and he splashed the best part of a mill on Jack Payne last month too, as well as turning down a chunk for Fatty Tomlin. Don't think our business is concluded yet either.

Peterborough are being a bit naughty aren't they?

Great job pboro, see you next season!

It's beyond a shame that we were relegated last season. Had we stayed up and kept Gayle we'd be genuine play-off contenders this time round. We were from December onwards last season after all, but it's pretty hard to recover from losing the first seven, and 14 of the first 18.

This squad is the best I've ever seen and they're all coming to their peak now. It's just looking like a waste of a season tbh, and if we manage to keep Tommy Rowe and Tomlin this time, the chances are they'll be going next summer anyway.

Just a joke that Yeovil are in the Championship and effecitvely took our place. Gary Johnson set things back a good few months at London Road. Anti-karma ftw. Oh well, at least there's some easy money to be made puntering.

What on earth happened to Reading last night?  Were Peterboro just excellent, or is their something afoot at Reading?? 

Reading looked bad. Adkins has changed their style completely and it didn't look good last night. Their fans are fumming on forums, with the usual stuff about 'shouldn't be losing to Peterborough'. Reading fans have always been pretty deluded, so quite pleasing to see them suffer.

Gorkkkssss and Mariappa were particularly bad. Apparently they're after Becchio and still fancy Alfie will be on his way.

Chomps - could there be some 'nice odds' in your next L/C game?

Away at De Canio's nutty Mackems?

Lot of water to go under the bridge before then sir, think we're gonna have a busy final day of the transfer window on Monday.

Whoever gets Tommy Rowe, if anyone does, will suddenly show massive improvement.

All I'll say is that the game against Crawley could be the last time Rowe, Tomlin, Assombalonga and Barnett play together. Posh have scored 4+ in four of six games this season, and can be backed at around 6/1 to do the same again.

In other footballing news, I've spent all morning studying the Champions' League draw and have come to the conclusion that Napoli have wound up in a tough group.

Righto     .....      I'll lump on the 0-0 draw then!

Creepies confirmed very deece. Poshies not at it today though. Am I literally the only League One fan on here? Where's all the Alex, Shrews, Tranmere fans?

Pboro knocked back 3 bids for Tomlin today from Celtic!

Yup, they went in with £1.2m, which was lol. Maybe quadruple it and they'd have been in the right ballpark.

Tomlin played the first half. Sort of. Then was subbed at half-time and spent the second half looking at his mobile.

Think this illustrates a problem with the Scotch transfer window closing on a Saturday.

The reason it's today is because the SFA messed up again. The ban on the current incarnation of Rangers registering new players was until Sep 1st, the muppets overlooked the fact that this fell on the weekend and the and window would actually close on the 2nd thus allowing them to sign players on Monday. They declined to switch to be in line with every other association, they really are incompetent fools.

Are you saying Fatty is worth £5m? Genuine question I've never watched him.

Boro' drive a hard bargain!

Tomlin is Kris commons with puppy fat and a liking for a pie and a pint. Released from the Leicester academy at 18 at his request as he wasn't up for it, went to non league and began to like the game. Always been a serious talent

Yuh, Fatty is super-talented. He's Darragh's pet and we were never selling at under £5m. On talent alone he's worth that sort of figure, but it's not just about talent with him. As today proved again.

Defo no players leaving according to Fergie tonight and fee agreed to bring in Stefan Scougall from Scotchland. He looks decent on his youtube compilation but then don't they all?

Jesus he's earned his nickname if he's bigger than Commons.

£5m for a player in the third tier of English football?

Play with extremely high tempo. Top 6 for sure.

Dwight Gayle went for more than that innit.

10 hours left and 0 bids for wells Monday could be a looooooong day,  fingers crossed!!

I hadn't heard anything about this before today, but apparently Watford have bid for Nahki Wells and it has been rejected. 

yea sounds like £1.2 million was turned down last night, but reports from the local footballer report from the local rag says no bids have been made, but most of the time he is always a week behind the goings on at BCFC

Can't see £1.2 million being anywhere near Bradford's valuation.

I wouldn't want Watford to pay more than £2 million for him, but I reckon Bradford will be looking for £3/4 million.  I assume Bradford coffers got a boost from the cup run last year so they are in no hurry to sell.

Correct, if it was not for the cup run last year we would defo have to snap sell at £1,2million but we now have money in the bank,  plus i don't think Wells is in any rush to move on and think we will only leave if its the right offer for him!  i would guess someone would have to bid £2.5/£3 million

How do you think Lee Tomlin will play now his dream move is over?

Who knows but we need him playing if we're gonna crush league one

http://www.peterboroughtoday.co.uk/sport/football/peterborough-united/tomlin-attitude-pleases-fergie-1-5450572#.UiXm2fdxYJQ.twitter

Always find it interesting that players can sort of fall out of love with the game as Tighty explained with Tomlin as he left Leicester. I know you may laugh at the comparison, but Palace's version of a player that was technically very good but really hated the game by his own admission was Tommy Black. He would only put the effort in to make sure he secured his contract and then he would get fat and not bother afterwards. Just interesting how some pros don't absolutely love the fact they play football for a living.

Nahki Wells taking the Player of the Month happy about that!!!

Brentford who???   


Thats now 10 goals at VP this season and 0 conceded, looks like VP could be a hard ground to come to this year

Crazy result at Gresty Road today. Poshies crushed for 90mins, got hit by two early sucker punches and chiselled out a draw in the end. Brizzle could pay the price next weekend.

uwe rosler = clown

Says it was not a sending off and the keeper player the ball hahhaa



for anyone that has not seen it  30 second in 

YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JJUKc5w3fw

To be fair, looks like he does play the ball with his trailing leg and then goes through Wells. Always going to be given as a foul though and more often than not going to be a red too.

Ffs Chompy - where's your mob tonight?

A few doubles with Watford Reserves to beat Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarch in grave danger   ....

Sounds like the underachieving Mackems are up for it. Unf timing.

Tis a shame they booted out El Duce before this game      ......       those players sure did react wonderfully to his expert man management.

Watford Reserves two up

Think the keeper does play the ball. It is with his trailing leg, and despite his leading leg really lunging in it doesn't make contact nor did the keeper intend for it to, it was more of a block tackle than going into the player.

Even if you think it is a foul, I think it was outside the box, and is it a clear goalscoring opportunity, pretty hazy for me.

Regardless think the keeper plays the ball without a shadow for me.

Slowed down contact outside box, keeper gets to ball    ....     ref a mile off - raised leg (that didn't connect) probably deciding factor     ....    ul goalie - but at 'match speed' you can't blame the ref for that decision!

So happy the way we have started this season, looking solid at the moment!  really really happy tonight

Gogogo Bradford! Hope you beat Wolves to second.

Surely you can't have settled for a play off spot so early in the season, Graham?

It's just com how far clear the Poshies are of the rest in this league.

Such a shame we're wasting a season. Apols to Barnsley and Yeovil fans but we really should be where they are now. We'd be pushing for the play-offs in the Champo. Cereal!

T'Blades came and parked t'bus, but it worked. They'll be OK this season for sure.

Poshies are missing Tomlin more than anyone ever imagined, not least Assomba. The diamond is hopeless without Fatty at the tip.

When did Bristol city last win a league game?

Obviously they beat palarse in the cup though ;)

What is going on Chompy?

With what sir? Poshies?

We've been poor since beating Reading 6-0 in the crapital one cup tbh, and rode our luck in getting a few of the wins, notably the 1-0 away at T'Millers.

Defensively we're OK but the goals have dried up since Tommo had his head turned. I have a horrible feeling that we're gonna get dumped out by Exeter on Saturday.

Darragh has been busy tho...

'I sense a young gem like uncut prolific, pacey, unpolished diamond being delivered next Monday to Posh, found in one of our fav hunting grounds'
'And it wont be the only one, another shall follow as well. Nothing like a couple of gems to mix in with the older diamonds in our collection!'
'And no its not from Dagenham.'
'Perms after initial loan period ala Gayley.'

It's almost certainly the latest Macclesfield hotshot.

Good stuff, just wanted your insight on the poshies. You have a great knack for getting young gems, i think players must look to you as their ticket to the bigtime, or at least capable of demanding a very nice sum to play your future football, like McClean and CMS.

Yuh, plenty of lower-league talent has come through.

Wish Fergie would give up on this diamond guff though. It hasn't worked since Boydy left and is embarrassing when Tomlin is out of the team.

I'm expecting a striker and attacking midfielder to come back in. Maybe we'll even put Luke Freeman out of his misery at Stevenage. We're used to entertainment at London Road, not grinding out 1-0s. Think Darragh is leaning the same way also.

Tomlin is out of the team?

Is he that integral that when he is not playing or not playing well the rest of the team aren't capable of pushing for the top two spots?

I thought you guys had great strength in depth for this division. My view from the outside is that this is just a dip and normal service should resume. What do you think? Are you still advocating comfortable promotion?

We are now very strong at the back, with the best keeper in the league and an awesome defensive midfielder in Jack Payne, but without Tomlin there's no service to Assomba/Barnett.

Ask me again a couple of weeks after Connor Jennings and ANOther have come in.

Just hope we get past the mighty Exeter and Daggers first.

Solid, cheers.

Have a vested interest as I backed your lot to take down the FLT.

Sheffield United still having a massive struggle in League One, they lost 2-1 at home To Gillingham last weekend, and they was good value for that win too.

Some interesting quotes from Blades fans...

Absolutely horrendous on every level. Can't believe I've just paid £18 to watch that garbage.

People need to wake up and stop thinking this is all of a sudden just going to get better, it isn't. Without exception these players are absolute ****.

Make no mistake about it, we're in a relegation fight.

-------------------------------------------------

This group of players we have assembled are rotten to the core.

Half of them are simply not good enough and the majority don't seem to give a toss.

I've lost count of the number of matches I've been to in the past six months where they have showed absolutely NOTHING.

They did their best in getting David Weir the sack and now it looks as if they're doing the same to Clough.

------------------------------------------------

It's not even worth ranting about. Our players are getting paid more a week than I am in a month and I do more than most of them when I'm sat watching the game. Pathetic.

Seems they will be down there for a long time.

Richie barker sacked.

Crawley play very very good football, so I guess he's off to Pompey.

"He guided them to 10th place in League One last season, but they have not won any of their last seven games, scoring only once."

Is that a case of playing pretty football in spite of results syndrome?

Indeed, but it's a work in progress.

£28 for away fans tomorrow to get in to Peterborough 5 days before Xmas that's a joke!!! With you be going chompy?

The away end has been torn down, so there's no standing for away fans at the moment.

It's either £20 or £23 to stand at London Road this season, depending on the oppo. Bradford probably a £20 match but who knows.

I'll be there sir. Assomba v Nicky Nacky. Should be epic.

We had sold out the tickets we got so it's just pay on the gate! £28 is a joke but might still end up going

Should be a deece game this one. Poshies came out all buzzed up before hammering Tranmere and the energy levels were much better. Will be interesting to see how they come out. Been very lethargic at the start of games on a few occasions this season.

One Cozzy Untlay, there's only one Cozzy Untlay!

You shell out the £28 sir?

Naaaa woke up at 11am the train was at 11:35am

Good swerve sir.

Your lot have plenty of spirit, which got them back in the game late in the day, but it was all pretty one-sided tbh.

Parkinson got the tactics wrong in playing three at the back for the first half. Kyle Reid looked very good in the second half, albeit he was up against Mark Little, who doesn't like the defensive side of being a defender at the best of times.

Britt and Tomlin missed sitters late as Bradford pushed for an equaliser, but not many teams have come to London Road this season and given us the sort of time in midfield we were given today. McCann and Tomlin ran the show and Nakhi was kept quiet the whole game.

Ref was a disgrace. The difference in ref quality between the Champo and League One is massive.

Phenomenal run by Brentford - 28 points from 30 with 7 clean sheets in 8 games.

Yup.

Gave Poshies a 20 point start & now overtaken them.

HU for rollz?

I think the loss to Carlisle in the cup could end up being one of the key results of the season for the Bees. Last seasons cup run, culminating in the replay loss to Chelsea, undoubtedly served as a distraction and now with only the league to go for, I really think Brentford will go up. Still looks like 2 from 3 for automatic promotion (Orient look to have already begun their inevitable slide). Whoever doesn't go up from Wolves, Bees, Posh, has to be the favourite in the playoffs. Perhaps the key to the rest of Brentford's season is keeping hold of Adam Forshaw. Definitely one of the best three players in League 1. I'm worried Rosler will come looking for him in Jan.

Chompy you thoughts on Aaron MCLean

Haha Oldham, great comeback.

He'll always score at this level. Thought he was better than he is when he spat the dummy out and insisted on a move up the leagues. Step down from Micky Macky tho.

Who saw that coming? Poshies are such rofflers.

What's going on there?

No chance of top 2 now

Poor old Shrewsbury, things must be bad to take Nathaniel 'the attitude' Mendez-Laing on loan.

Amazing how quickly Wikipedia updates...

[Jack] Baldwin moved to League One side Peterborough United for £500,000 on 31st January 2014 just minutes before the transfer deadline.

Any Pools fans in?

three clubs came in for Tomlin. None met the asking price

Publicans in the East End of Glasgow don't know whether to rejoice or drown their sorrows.

Fatty Tomlin has LEFT the building. Tbh, for all his talent, I'm glad. Darragh has done his bit in sweeping out all the troublemakers.

Forgive me for the self indulgent bump (I know tikay will be on with it!) but weeeeeeeee! Can't wait for the Championship next year. I think we'll have a season very similar to Bournemouth's this year. I'd be surprised if we were relegated.

Congrats to your mob, rinswun!

Can't believe I lived about 5 minutes from the stadium for over a year, and still never made it to a match...

What price we thinking Wolfs for the Championship next season. I strongly fancy them to do a Norwich.

12-1 to 16/1 surely can't be any shorter than that?

remember, they've had premier league parachute payments in league one. no paracute payments next year.

top half, possibly top six but no shorter than 14 or 16/1 in my opinion

With King Kenny of the jacket in charge i would not want to lay anything bigger than 12's

Given what tighty has said that's a massive disadvantage given the money bags teams that will probably be in the div next year.  Sunderland/Fulham/QPR/Forest/Derby/Brighton/Reading/Leeds/Watford must all be more likely than Wolves to go up.  Pretty sure you will prob get 20/1-25/1 in a place.

http://www.oddschecker.com/football/football-specials/wolves/finishing-position-14-15

Slybet make them 8/15 for a top half finish.  Given we backed Watford at 2/7 this year and Watford must have been a 14/1-16/1 shot pre season that would make Wolves 20/1 min surely.  

Disclaimer: slybets prices are not an accurate guide usually of future performance.

Watford were 8-10/1 pre-season

Just thought I'd pop in and get used to the place!  I have a suggestion for a team to replace Shrewsbury in the title thread!!

See you all next season!!

Not us, we're going up in the play-offs. Like are we fk.

Can a mod, or Celtic, change the team in the title to Barnsley. Ta.

Poshies are going up this season.

Your chairman is the dogs bollocks!

Good luck to your mob, Chompy.

Darragh fancies himself as a chatshow host for sure. We are ridic lucky to have him in charge.

All he wants this season is for a return to old-style Posh after such a dull '13/'14.

So many goals in this current bunch. It's gonna be fun.

Its a sad day when my only hope for Doncaster is staying in League 1. For a club that was run well for a decent amount of time behind the scenes, bar letting good players go on the cheap having let their contracts run out, the current state of off the field matters is a shambles. Really disheartening.

Yep - poor old Donny.  Only 6 months ago they seemed fairly secure in the Championship - still struggle to work out how they managed to go down instead of Birmingham!

Poshies trying to get Luke James from Pools are a Britt replacement.

Pools striker Luke James has today handed in a written transfer request. The club has acknowledged the request but advised Luke that he remains under contract to Hartlepool United.

Marcus Maddison arrives at London Road.

Supposed to be a bit tasty this lad. Anyone seen anything of him?

Such a legend

Peterborough my new favourite second team.

Confirmed hero!

Liked him on the deadline day transfer show on sky a while back, seems a bit of a dodgepot though looking at his Wiki entry. 

Where can Posh go, can they ever make to the premiership in reality?

If they do does Darragh immediately sell?

Premiership is unrealistic but a good spell in the Champo is quite doable, although crowds will always be an issue.

Peterborough is full of plastics.

Best bit was where he had a dig at Karl Robinson.

Just watched that in full he comes across pretty well and he has a passion that some clubs would kill for. 

Lee Tomlin proving with that turn and shot against Citeh (which left Kompany wondering what day of the week it was) that Chompy was right all along about him.

With a better attitude and less KFC, Tomlin would have been with one of the big boys by now.
