Why are eveverybody saying that Wolves and Blackburn are fancied for promotion this year??? Wolves 1st division last year and Blackburn 11 points outside the playoffs...... I must say that when I picked my top 6 for this year neither of these teams were anywhere near it....

:lol: is this why people are not convinced about city's performances because these teams won't be promotion material? :o

Did you not notice that Wolves finished 7th in the Championship last year - not League 1- and missed out on the playoffs only on goal difference? Blackburn finished 9th. Two places and 5 points above us. On that performance both of them, and especially Wolves , could be regarded as being potential promotion candidates. Blackburn's chances probably scuppered now by the loss of Gestede.
