If we could keep this neat & tidy, by doing it in the following format;
Username
Team
One(s) to watch.
Player(s) you want out.
Where will you finish?
Going up.
Going down.
So, heres mine.
Golden_Boy
Watford
One(s) to watch. Our 'promising' youngsters have been 'promising' much for too long. We are in desperate need for some of them to step up and show what they got, it'll be a huge season for Priskin especially, as our much talked about proposed change of style looks to suit him. Robinson, Young, Henderson are others.
Player(s) you want out. Kabba's out on loan to Blackpool but I still want him off the wage bill.
Where will you finish? Lower mid-table.
Going up. Birmingham QPR Reading
Going down. Doncaster, Blackpool & Barnsley.

Username: JH1980 Team: Cardiff City One(s) to watch:The defence is the same steady team we had towards the end of last season, and there haven't been widespread changes in the middle. Up front, it's all about which strikers join us, and which come through for us. New boy McCormack looks tidy so far, and there's Jon Brown who may come through as our latest talented youngster. Player(s) you want out:I'm still not convinced by ex-Leeds scunner McPhail, but to be honest we still need more depth instead of booting out players. Purse is past it now but may be helpful in training with the kids, oh and if Thompson gets a record contract his days failing to score for us may be over (though he's been finding the net in pre-season games). Where will you finish?All depends on strikers. We've a solid defence and quality midfield, if all comes together, playoffs. If it doesn't, around 9th/10th. Going up.Not many teams stand out. Birmingham probably, and who knows who else. US!!! Going down.Doncaster, it's a laugh they're here in the first place Barnsley were close before, so maybe them errr... Swansea, but they won't I fear.

Team: Derby County
One(s) to watch:
Difficult to say after getting 11 (and counting) new players in this summer, but from the pre season games i would say Kris Commons looks a real prospect, and also Paul Green (signed from Doncaster).
Player(s) you want out:
Andy Todd, Eddie Lewis, Gary Teale, Stephen Pearson, Lewis Price, Jay McEveley, Robbie Savage (if he doesnt get his act sorted out). Most of the other dross has already gone!
Where will you finish?
Depends how we gel as a team, but i'm sticking by my prediction of a 9th placed finish
Going up.
Birmingham, QPR & Wolves
Going down.
Barnsley, Southampton & maybe Blackpool

Username:A2V
Team:Sheffield United
One(s) to watch: David Cotterill: a pacy winger we've finally signed from Wigan after having him on loan for the second half of the season. Should be the one to provide the crosses that Beattie and Henderson should thrive on. Danny Webber: Injured for most of last term, and in the last year of his contract. I think he'll play like his life depends on it this year, and at his best he's a good player with an eye for goal.
Player(s) you want out: Lee Hendrie: At it's best our team is all about playing pride, passion and commitment. Hendrie has none of these and seems to be the ultimate football mercenary. The future is bright, but it's certainly not orange .... so the perma tanned midget can fuck off. Nick Montgomery: The exact opposite to Hendrie, all heart and no skill If you can't hit a five yard pass, then you should probably pack it up and go home. Keith Gillespie: Had a great career for the most part, but now is two or three steps slower than he used to be and largely ineffectual.
Where will you finish?: I'd love to say in the top two, but the sides relegated from the Premiership are all very strong. I think we'll be in the top six.
Going up: Birmingham, Reading & Derby.
Going down: Donny, Wednesday & Barnsley

PureOldGoldWolverhampton WanderersOne(s) to watch.The obvious being Sylvan Ebanks Blake, top scorer last season and made an instant impact, expect more of the same this season. Micheal Kightly, after a great initial season, had problems with his ankle, but hopefully will shine again. Matt Jarvis, promising winger who can go past players with ease. Sam Vokes, George Elkobi and Wayne Hennessey all expected to make an impact. Player(s) you want out.Neil Collins, very unlikely since Mick's offered him a long contract Where will you finish?3rd and miss out on promotion via the playoffs Going up.Birmingham QPR Crystal Palace Going down.Doncaster Blackpool Barnsley.

Pete The Wolf
Wolves
One(s) to watch I suppose it's gotta be Ebanks-Blake and Kightly really. Jarvis could also be one to watch if he gets his chance and David Jones sounds a good buy as well.
Player(s) you want out Well, Bothroyd and Eastwood have gone. The main person I'd like to see go now is Darren Ward.
Where will you finish? Don't think we're gonna get automatic, so will go for the playoff positions. Not even gonna attempt a prediction for that though.
Going up Birmingham Possibly Reading Dunno who else from the playoffs
Going down Blackpool Doncaster Maybe Southampton

Username Derbian
Team Derby County
Ones to watch Steven Davies the youngster from Tranmere will be hungry to prove himself with the chances he gets, Kris Commons who is raring to go and Kazmierczak after he's settled in will be possibly the best player in the division ;D
Players you want out Todd, Teale, Lewis, Pearson and Savage unless he starts behaving like the senior he's supposed to be.
Where will you finish Top
Going up Derby Birmingham Reading
Going down Blackpool Doncaster Swansea

Username: Peschi Team: Derby County One(s) to watch:Well with the amount of signings we've made its extremely hard to answer this because I've never seen any of them play. Giles Barnes when fit will be our best player in this league but I think Kris Commons, Paul Green and Martin Albrechtsen should all be looked at as stand-out players as well. Player(s) you want out:The obvious ones would be Gary Teale, Eddie Lewis and Andy Todd but also I would like Jay McEveley, Stephen Pearson and Robbie Savage all to go as well. They offer very little to the team and I'm more worried when these players have the ball than when the other team have it!!! ;D Where will you finish?Play-offs would be brilliant but I'd settle for a more realistic 8th or 9th. Going up.Birmingham, QPR and Crystal Palace Going down.Southampton, Doncaster and Plymouth

Doncaster, it's a laugh they're here in the first place By working their way up from the point of non existence to a nice new stadium to the 2nd tier of the league without breaking the bank? Hilarious

Username: QPRNik or something, don't actually know lol.
Team: QPR
One(s) to watch:
A lot. Parejo has been signed on loan from Real Madrid, Ledesma has made quite an impression so far, Martin Rowlands is in my opinion one of the most underated players in this League. Akos Buzsaky is a bit special n' all!!
Player(s) you want out:
None, if anything, we still need a couple of players in!
Where will you finish?
Play-offs
Going up.
Birmingham, Sheffield United and one of the four teams in the play offs (Reading, Wolves, QPR and Bristol City)
Going down.
Ummm Burnley, Blackpool and Swansea.
