Sorry to say it but i think Luton will be up near the top if they can keep hold of most of their squad. Yes they struggled against us in the FA Cup, but i still think they will be up there.

From chatting to Luton fans, it sounds like they'll be a decent outfit next year. I'd also be surprised if we finished above Mansfield.

I'm sure we can finish above Forest Green if we have a good season though.

I watch Wimbledon occasionally being the nearest side to me. They are quite fast going forward and have a couple of strikers who can score a few at this level. Defensively they will need to strengthen and wise up a bit. They reckon on staying part time but I believe certainly some players "part time" wages are rather significant.

Gateshead could be a surprise, someone is doing something right up there and they have a huge catchment for players if they are paying enough. Disillusionment with the Toon Army could put a few bums on seats too.

I saw Hayes and Yeading once last season and I am very surprised they made the cut. Hampton would have been better suited to the conference, they are a physically strong big side, sadly not too dissimilar to Histon in approach.

Tamworth will be in the mix at the bottom, but another side we don't always prosper against.

I don't think Luton will have the easy ride many say, a couple of early season defeats could make them struggle I'd guess and early season big crowds could soon tail off.

Ala Wrexham this season. Tho i still think Luton will do well next season. As for Chester (if Darlo dont go bust) i think they will struggle.
