Cricket-Match-Special ... A forum for discussion

After a short time with no Football, the championship and leagues one and two start this weekend.

As normal with these leagues, trying to pick out a winner is difficult, but I'll have a go.

Championship - Fulham
League One - Sheffield Utd
League two - Luton

As for the relegation battles, we'll wait and see.

Fixtures are below.

I have an accumulator which includes Fulham and Sheffield United to go up.

Worrying only 1 the Fulham side that played the 1st game of last season is still at the club, and thats the GK, Stekelenburg.

Cardiff go one up as the season kicks off.

1-1 draw to kickstart the season... could of called that pre-kick off.

Bookies don't appear to have too much of an idea this season.

Every year for the past four or five years (including this week just gone), I put on 40 x £2 accumulators on who I think will win the top five divisions in England. Usually I get odds ranging from about 5,000/1 - 30,000/1. This year they have ranged from 15,000/1 - 125,000/1.

Season handicaps have potential to be a right money earner, especially in lower league football when it's closely competed.

I didn't realise that Sheff United signed Higdon, thats a great signing.

Kenwyne Jones scores for Cardiff....

Bit of turnaround going on at Huddersfield from the drubbing we had last season. One or two people I know had put money on Callum Wilson being top goalscorer in the Championship this season. We shall see.

Shame he missed a pen.

Good win for Wycombe. Still think we'll struggle but hey gotta be happy with three points.

Funnily enough he scored a hat trick in a pre season friendly against Oxford United and one of those was a penalty.

Might be a blessing, him missing this time, else he would be getting a bit cocky with two hat tricks in his first few games for us.

Two wins in a row, you're on a roll.
