Oxford's top three power against Poole reserve power for the title, in my opinion. Those are the two teams that stand out, although I think it looks a more competitive league than we've seen in the last few seasons (3rd to 8th could be any order, with Scunthorpe last).

1. Oxford
2. Poole
3. Glasgow
4. Berwick
5. Plymouth
6. Redcar
7. Edinburgh
8. Workington
9. Scunthorpe

Needs Erik Riss to stay fit all season, though. If he does - and he shows the sort of form he showed in the Premiership last season - he's arguably the signing of the year in the Champ. It's a big IF though. If he's out for large parts of the season, there's no guest/replacement that will offer his scoring power on that average.

That is after a two point deduction though. They did look like they could make the playoffs for a chunk of the season, but let themselves down very badly on the road - but even then, the closest they got to winning was at Poole and Glasgow. A very enigmatic team.

To be fair thats how the Workington sides have been built since their return with sh#t or bust riders, unpredictable makes for great viewing (providing they turn up), however if a season of consistency hits then big things could happen.

Plymouth will surprise lots of teams 

I really hope so. There appears to be a better vibe coming from the club than in previous years. Getting off to a good start and a consistent home surface are key

Down last season tho,and who knows what effect a 12%price hike will have on this seasons attendance??

Attendance wasn't down but sponsorship was! Season passes were on par. Should have increased admission price last season - as many other clubs did - as they haven't increased for a couple of years. Not bad really considering its one of their main (only) revenue streams.

Berwick to miss the playoffs with bad luck,think Plymouth will be the dark horses, Glasgow ,Oxford and Poole 

At some point we have to be due some good luck. I’d really like to see Berwick in the playoffs but unless the new team members can really learn Shielfield quickly it’s not gonna happen again.

very hard to pick were 3-8 goes but I feel Glasgow and Workington top4 will get them through enough meetings to get them into play offs.

As long as you finish in the top 4 anyone of the 4 could win the league, just hope the wheels fall off the pilots bus and they finish out of the top 4 🤪  my unbiased top 4 are worky Plymouth Redcar and Glasgow
