Was wondering which teams would be challenging this season.
Ignoring ourselves (i think we will be thereabouts) pick 6 teams you think will be up there.
I'm going for:
Norwich (if their key forwards stay fit, I think they may be this season's dark horse)
Sheff Utd - although if they lose Hamer it will hamper them, wouldn't be surprised to PL loans help them.
Leeds - although they may struggle due to player turnover and

Sheff Utd - although if they lose Hamer it will hamper them, wouldn't be surprised to PL loans help them.
Leeds - although they may struggle due to player turnover and the need for new players to 'gel'!
Luton - kept most of their squad intact, so stability should help
Burnley - see Luton, although hopefully their new manager is useless!
Bristol City - my other choice for dark horses this season
I am also curious to see what happens with Hull this season, with their new manager. He plays a manic pressing game, which -- given he hasn't recruited players yet (due to massive turnover) - means the players won't have time to get used to his methods, and they may not work due to burnout, given the number of games played at this level.
No particular order:
Luton, Sheffield United, Burnley, Norwich, Leeds,
Middlesbrough and WBA.
I expect us to be competing along with Bristol City, QPR and Sheffield Wednesday. Preston always seems to be in the mix with their negative football
