I remember this time last season a lot of us (including me) felt a bit daunted at the prospect of competing in the championship. From the outside looking in, nearly every side was littered with high earners and players with good reputations.
I was surprised how much I overestimated the standard. A part from a few standout teams the level wasn’t as good as I thought and I think it’s declined even more this season.

A well drilled & organised team, with young players hungry to succeed and progress their careers will always fair well in the championship, but now it’s even more likely, due to the amount of average players sat on massive amounts of last for a lifetime money, on long contracts that they’re just happy to plod along picking up.

Opinion providers are saying Forest will do well. Fans here saying "WTF ???". Wonder how much of the press are sitting back and looking at Hughton and saying his managerial ability will be the decider for them, not whats on the pitch ?
