I wouldn't rule out Gillingham to be honest, we nearly came close to the play-offs, just lost our way towards the last few games.
Not sure what gives United the rights to be favorite yet again. They've choked the last 4 seasons and lost me some money this year too!

Only 1pt picked up from two games for Sheffield United.

 

 

The Gills started well last year too - interesting to see if they can keep it up!

Good to see Rovers lose to a team we dicked 6-0 last season :D

 

I see Sheffield United are living up to their "favourites tag" as usual :rolleyes:

Coventry are one of the teams I have decided to follow this season. Bit surprised he decided to resign, most of the managers wait to be pushed.

They should have left the EFL Trophy alone with B-teams of the Premier League & Championship being allowed to complete.

Did anyone see the plastic pig protest that Charlton and Coventry did in their match on Saturday?

 

 

I saw media coverage of that incident. Knew about the Charlton unrest, the Coventry one must have occurred fairly recently. I don't always catch the stories.

 

More news from this division, sadly related to administration as opposed to actual football. Bury are facing another winding up petition from HMRC according to this article here.

And one of the reasons why I love football is when an upset occurs like this.
