The 09/10 Football League Season

Coventry the only side in the Championship with a 100% record up to now.

Coleman looks to be doing a good job promotion contenders maybe ?

I don't think Cov are promotion contenders just yet, but their ground deserves to be in the Prem.

Anyone think QPR might just become promotion contenders this year they have spent enough money.

No, QPR won't be. Although I like Magilton as a person, he always seems to struggle to get his teams playing consistently enough.

I wouldn't be happy if my team was below Morecambe in the league either.
