2021/22 PREDICTIONS

Much like an earlier post I'd have Dunfermline and Killie in a mini group battling for the top two spaces, Raith, Partick, ICT and Hamilton fighting it out in the "second tier" for the play offs and then Arbroath, Morton, Ayr and QotS in the bottom four.

My complete guess, based on the above, is therefore (maybe optimistic for ICT):

  1. Dunfermline
  2. Killie
  3. Partick
  4. ICT
  5. Raith
  6. Hamilton
  7. Arbroath
  8. QotS
  9. Ayr
  10. Morton

Yaaay, love these, especially when my team's not in it. Might be the toughest it's been to call for some time. Killie and Dunfermline for me are the hazy favourites, but the inherent meh-ness of even them brings a strong element of unpredictability to the whole league. Fully expect to come back and balk at my picks here.

Dunfermline Athletic
Kilmarnock
Partick Thistle
Raith Rovers
Inverness Caledonian Thistle
Ayr United
Hamilton Academical
Arbroath
Greenock Morton

Queen of the South

Hahahahahaha

Two particularly 'balkable' picks in there.

Partick Thistle
Dunfermline
Kilmarnock
Inverness CT
Raith Rovers
Arbroath
Accies
Ayr
QOS
Morton

Underestimated how shite Dunfermline would be and how good Arbroath would be. I think if Morton and Killie hadn’t sacked their respective managers and upgraded in that department they’d be closer to where I had them.

Looks like my prediction for bottom was spot on. I don’t expect you to congratulate me on predicting that of course.

Notoriously bad at this but here goes

 

Dunfermline

Partick

Kilmarnock

Ayr

Inverness

Raith

Morton

Queens

Hamilton

Arbroath

 

Be aware though, when I predict your team to be champions it usually means a relegation battle. Sorry Pars

It also means Arbroath will have the cigars out by February. You can thank me later Smokies

You’ll be hearing from our lawyers. This is all your fault!

Naturally, with two massive outliers in Dunfermline being massively overestimated and Arbroath being overly underestimated, alongside the sheer unpredictability of such a close season, it was harder to get lower points than either of the previous two years I've done this. The average score was way higher than last season's for example, which was relatively straightforward by comparison. Just shows what a baffling Championship season it was.

For the first time however, the Championship Predictor has a sole winner. Congratulations to @R&Y99, the Partick man scored an impressive 16 despite making his prediction all the way in June! He slightly overestimated Arbroath just enough (6th) and otherwise from the obvious 2 got the right idea for where the teams would fall.

We had 6 predictions manage 18 points, which in any other year would be mediocre but this year is above-average. Good efforts from @Nadroj, @Slacker, @Dunning1874 (at least on the first prediction), @Les Cabbage, @Scotty Tunbridge and @virginton.

As for the worst, we managed a record in this department at least thanks to such a chaotic season. Four separate posters managed to hit 34 points, the highest (and therefore worst) I've seen since in my brief time doing this. Congrats to @Dauntless (who stuck to his Ayr Utd guns and put Killie in 10th with the Pars in 1st and Arbroath in 7th), @Superhursy7 (Pars 1st, Accies 3rd, QoS 6th, ICT 8th, Arbroath 9th), @Raith_Raver's revised prediction (a pisstake I assume which flipped every team, though bizarrely had Arbroath 3rd and Dunfermline 10th, close than any other prediction) and @thisal (who proudly proclaimed in the same post "Don't have a clue and to prove it:". And boy did he prove it).

Can't wait to predict Dundee coming 1st next season only to watch them finish 5th 🙃

Did not expect to have the most accurate prediction when I made that. I’ll happily take it, as the last time I partook in the championship prediction in 19/20 I had Thistle as 3rd and we ended up 10th ha!  
 

Thanks for taking the time to tally it all up mate.

Will have a go. Usually well off the mark with it tho, also haven't really kept up with signings for half the clubs but here we go

 

1. Dunfermline.

More bias than anything, will be first to admit I wasn't happy with grant appointment. But he has assembled a very good attacking team and will be good to watch. Imagine we will be involved in alot of high scoring games too. We will outscore teams on our way to the title 

2. Kilmarnock. 

Best manager in the league on paper but has he actually done it at this level? Always builds a solid squad that are usually hard to beat. Plenty players they have retained are to good for this division and recruitied some decent championship players but lack a proven goalscorer, I reckon we have better players in the attacking areas.

3. Inverness.

Always there or thereabouts. No sure on dodds management levels but they are always solid at home and not many teams take points. Always  tough opponents at eep and don't tend to concede many. 

4. Partick.

Mccall been there done it, just promoted and they always tend to have a decent first season back. A bit similar to our squad regarding good going forward and poor at the back. Again will be involved in some entertaining high scoring games. 

5. Raith.

Look solid defensively. I'm sure they lost alot of there attacking players and not too sure about the quality they have brought in as replacements. Think Vaughan will be vital for goals providing he can last the season. If he does i can see him doing well. But we all know there's every chance he misses about a third of the season injured. Decent manager and should be comfortable, more than likely I'm the fight for 4th with Partick.

6. Hamilton 

Haven't paid any attention on there squad at all so no idea who actually plays for them. Apart from Andy Ryan and callum Smith, 2 strikers I wouldn't be overly worried about at this level tbh. Rank pitch but they know how to play it to there advantage so should be decent enough at home to sit in the middle of the league.

7. Arbroath 

Cant really say much on them as its basically the same comments every season with them. Always a hard place to go and win, especially with the wind etc etc. Stuffy team with a experienced team and manager. Think there solid enough to avoid a relegation fight.

8. Q.O.T.S

Always rely on a lot of loans to its always hard to set a foundation to build around. Have been fairy rank for the most part of the past 2 seasons apart that 3 month spell which propelled them up the league. Never confident of an AJ side in this league. Think they will struggle but see them being better than ayr and morton

9. Ayr 

Poor last season, signed a few morton players who weren't exactly any good last season either. Not sure about the rest of there recruitment but can't see much improvement from last season and will fight it out with morton for the automatic drop.

10. Morton

Rank last season, probably have another small squad with little quality, similar season to last and will either be them or Ayr for the drop. 

 

All total guesswork and will no doubt be well off it again. And feel free to quote me where I'm talking guff regards to squads and players. As like I said I've not paid much attention outside pars recruitment. Seen most of killies and seeing Partick against us. 

A mixed bag but quite chuffed at getting 3,4,5,6th all correct.

I know matches aren't won on paper and blah, blah, piss, shite etc but serious questions are going to need to be asked if either Kilmarnock or ourselves finish outside the top 2. Our squads are absolutely miles better than anything else in the league.
