As Howard Wilkinson once said, "You can't take any notice of the league tables till the end of November".

 

Not sure Barnsley would agree with that after last season Howard

At the weekend we will be all but a quarter of the way into the season already. Before we started Newcastle, Norwich, and Villa were favourites, Owls, Derby and Brighten taking up the top 6 and Wolves as the Wildcard. I'd be amazed if anyone other than these take the top two. 

 

Its t's hard to be clear at this stage but you can fall behind. let's look at the state of play. Norwich do play Newcastle tonight but I'll assume a draw.

 

norwich lead the way with 21 from 10 games. 

brighten - 3

Owls - 4

newcastle -4

wolves -6

Villa - 11

Derby - 12

 

The real losers here are Villa and Derby - it's a slog to make up such a large number of points. The rest is as you were for me. 

 

a shout out to Udders (who won't keep up this pace but have a top 6 to aim for). Bristol City could well join in the party too. 

 

well done Wednesday - massive games coming up. 

Absolutely HUGE

What does he know?

 

Some Owlstalk posters had us out of the title race after 4/5 games. They obviously know more than Wilkinson.
