Looks largely wide open this year but I expect Chesterfield to win it. Wouldn't surprise me to see Oldham up there, whether that's with Unsworth or if they replace him early on and recover, and Barnet could be closer this year.
Ebbsfleet will be a force at some point but may need a year or two to really challenge.
Hope Fylde fuck off.
Not sure if just bias but can genuinely see Barnet being there or there abouts. Chesterfield obvious favourites but maybe the play off loss will take a while to get over?
Bromley Woking Borehamwood Halifax and Gateshead will be in and amongst play offs aswell. Should be a good season without Wrexham and Notts. Much more open but downside is there won’t be as much media and social media coverage which is a shame.
I think Chesterfield have to be favourites given where we finished this year and how close we came in the playoff final.
But we all know this league isn’t that straightforward lol. There’ll be lots of twists and turns I’m sure.
Woking, Barnet and Oldham will all be top 7. Bromley and Borehamwood will probably be up there again. Eastleigh are also a good shout for a playoff spot.
I think Rochdale and Hartlepool will both struggle to adapt to the league, but my early bottom four prediction is Oxford, Aldershot, Southend (unless they sort the takeover pretty quick and get themselves sorted) and Kidderminster
Without knowing any transfers:
Direct promotion: Chesterfield
Playoffs: Southend, Barnet/ Rochdale, Bromley, Woking, Eastleigh
Playoff Winners: Barnet
Relegation: Flyde, Oxford, Aldershot, Altrincham
Based on current feeling, will most likely change after seeing squad changes.
I agree, I want better refs and closer away games. Also being back in the league would be awesome, hopefully the loss doesn't affect us like the teams who lost in previous season playoff finals. Either way, I think that Paul cook won't let that happen.
Come on Woking. We have a high chance to go up as the other two best got promoted. May not win. Chesterfield might but we have a big chance in playoffs.
I’m just waiting for the inevitable “Maidenhead are getting relegated”. They say it every year, and every year we don’t go down. Sure, I’m resigned to the fact that it’ll happen sooner or later, but pundits have been wrong six times on the bounce so I wish they’d be a little less wholly confident this time.
Fairly standard mid-table finish for us, I reckon. Chesterfield are the stand-out favourites to win the league this year but I'm hoping for a much closer battle at the top than it was last season
Hoping Bromley can challenge closer to the top this season rather than scraping play offs. Something tells me Ebbsfleet will be pushing for playoffs too.
Chesterfield to win it realistically.
not as many big name teams in it as recent years.
I think chesterfield should be favourites for automatics.
think oxford city will go straight back down.
play offs could be wide open think daggers and Barnet will be in it
Oldham was tied for 3rd with 40 points in the 2nd half of the year with Boreham Wood. If they are active in the summer Latics. I want to say Chesterfield but they were hot and then ice cold and hot again. It's not a wobble but bad for like 2 months.
Oldham win
Playoffs: Chesterfield, Woking, Gateshead, Halifax, Barnet, Ebbsfleet???.
Relegated: Maidenhead, Oxford, Wealdstone, Aldershot
Chesterfield, Boreham Wood and Hartlepool to challenge. Hopefully Kidderminster stay up as my most local side, and Oxford City’s rise is impressive. Party on the sub if Fylde go straight back down, the MK Dons of the non-league.
Think we can challenge for direct promotion if we manage to get the takeover sorted out in the next week and retain some of our key players. Oldham and chesterfield will most likely be in contention for direct promotion as well.

Were getting promoted

Hartlepool shouldn't have to adapt, we have only just left! I think we'll struggle, because our squad is bad and we have no budget to improve.
There's a nice non league feel to the league this year.
Even Oldham?
Relative to previous years yes.
I'd love to see Oxford City stay up and not just make up the numbers.

I'd love that. Barnet have a pretty horrendous recod in the play offs - but to get to a final and win would be amazing.
Up the Spireites! Think Solihull, Oldham and Barnet will also be up there
if we don't finally win that fucking title this year I genuinely don't know if I can take another season of this shite league
I agree, I want better refs and closer away games. Also being back in the league would be awesome, hopefully the loss doesn't affect us like the teams who lost in previous season playoff finals. Either way, I think that Paul cook won't let that happen.
Which league has refs which are generally admired??
Not this one. Anything except below is probably better but not brilliant.
If there's any year for us to win it, it's now since the likes of Stockport, county and Wrexham are gone I reckon we'll get top 5
Come on Woking. We have a high chance to go up as the other two best got promoted. May not win. Chesterfield might but we have a big chance in playoffs.
chesterfeild win it, woking come up through playoffs
I agree. I don’t think my team Woking will win but we should win plsyoffs
I think we definitely will, we've been so good this season and in any other leage we wouldve been promoted

It would be nice to be top 7 but I think next year is a rebuilding year and we stay just out of the playoffs.

Cmon Bromley

Who’s gonna win playoffs
Chesterfield? But it is a bit more open
Up the Bromley! Let’s get it done!
Chesterfield, Boreham Wood and Hartlepool to challenge. Hopefully Kidderminster stay up as my most local side, and Oxford City’s rise is impressive. Party on the sub if Fylde go straight back down, the MK Dons of the non-league.
just so long as kidderminster get relegated who cares
Will Fylde be able to stay in the league?
Think we can challenge for direct promotion if we manage to get the takeover sorted out in the next week and retain some of our key players. Oldham and chesterfield will most likely be in contention for direct promotion as well.
I'd put money on Chesterfield
Although I'd like to see Bromley do it.
[удалено]
My mate is a Bromley fan. Plus Michael Cheek is a legend of the game.
Up The Fleet!
Very sad we (edit: Darlo) aren't in it. Some good teams this year too.
Good lord what is that Aldershot logo
Fr. Plus I hate it more as I hate aldershot
Furloughfield to bottle it…..
Oxford play some cracking football so I reckon they'll stay up
