After a long hot Summer the football season kicks off again this weekend
What are your hopes and aspirations for your club?
Who's gonna win your league and who's gonna be relegated?
If I'm honest West Brom over achieved last season, can't see us hitting the same giddy heights again. So, a mid table finish and maybe a semi-final in a Cup will suffice. With Moyes finding his feet and Rooney playing the cunt, could be Man Citys year. That dirty word 'relegation' could be anyone of half a dozen, but the good moneys on Palace, Hull and Cardiff!
Ipswich Town - Longest serving team in the Championship (12th season) 5th last season from the period Big Mick took over, 10 new players in hopeful of the play offs for a change! Can't see beyond Wigan winning the league though, think QPR will struggle as everyone will be up for having a right crack at them and their big name charlies. With regards to the Prem. most interesting year for a long time can see the special one leading Chelsea to pip it from Man City, and Jackett will ensure Wolves will get back up!
Be careful what you dream of it may come up and surprise you.
Can't believe how soon it's came round. Our season starts with Barnet away a week on Saturday, early train down and a day in London. Would expect us to finish about 8th but would take anything above relegation then build on that in the coming seasons.

I'm looking forward to this season, although I haven't got a season ticket for the first time in 7 years. I don't think we'll get in the play offs this time around. We'd only fuck it up anyway.
I hope the derby's on a Saturday, better atmosphere than a Sunday. I predict a mid table finish for Chester.
A good season for us (Celtic) would be the domestic treble and getting through to the group stages of the champions league or a good Europa league run. Hopefully get a good few European away trips anyway would love somewhere in Germany or somewhere hot and unusual.
I think if we pull in a couple more players to strengthen the squad I can see Albion finishing sixth and hopefully go for a cup. Had a season ticket for the first time in a long time as I've missed going up. Think Chelsea will win the league, the rest will be a scramble with Manchester battling out 2nd and 3rd.
I think Cardiff and Hull will go straight back down, they will struggle this year by the looks of it. Not sure about Palace depends if they pull off the signings reported, although he's an absolute cunt Odemwingie will be a good buy for them if they do.
Championship I can see Wigan coming straight back up.
Have the three new boys in the prem even signed anyone ?
Would love Walsall to give the play off places a good go.
Wolves shouldn't think they'll walk league 1. They thought that with the Championship, although i think they will, i hope they don't as i love seeing fans with egg on their faces.

Hull have signed defender Curtis Davies, that should make them favourites for the drop then!

I think they will find it much harder than they think, the level of football down to the conference is a good standard throughout. I think you will have a decent season mate with Walsall if the last half of the season just gone can be anything to go by.
Fuck the cup, we (Leeds) were dreadfull last season and haven't made any exciting signings in my opinion, i predict a 10-12th place finish, unless we make a few signings in January, but lets not look too far ahead yet, ill be there no matter what.

My team is FC COLOGNE - 2nd Bundesliga team and I hope for promotion this season. Haven´t the big money for players, but got some young players and have a good team spirit (so far)!
Team I like in the EPL is Arsenal - since they played our biggest rivals (Mönchengladbach) in our ground in Cologne 1996 in UEFA Cup I have a look and like them! Hope for some silverware this season!
