Matt ‘Take this with a pinch of salt’ Richards

Share your early championship predictions too!!

This channel is going places, the Euro 2024 content will be amazing

Glad you still have the channel. Not glad we're still in the Championship! Nothing egregious with your predictions. (I would expect Sheffield Wednesday to finish above QPR.) Very sensible and fair with your analysis of all clubs as usual.

So happy to see you back🤲🤲🤲

Sophie in sparkling form.

Great to have you both back!!!!!

yes matt, love that you got the issue sorted. Looking forward to some fun watch alongs next season

Enjoyed the video both - I’m glad you got everything sorted matt. As a Leeds fan I’m feeling fairly confident for next season it’s going to be a good one fingers crossed! x

So glad to see you back and seeing that you can continue to do what you love and make a living from it. All the best Matt. Hull are winning the league. COME ON YOU 'ULL

Really glad your channel is up and running again Matt.

Good to have you back ❤

Hi matt great to see you back on you tube I must say that your live chat channel is outstanding and keep up the good work 👏 and Coventry good luck for next season from a fulham fan 👍

Great to see you both again n looking so happy,love your podcasts WAWAW hehe 🦉💙🤍 😊

Great to see you two back

Great to see you are back!

So good to have the channel back let’s keep the best content coming

Thanks for another entertaining video. I have no predictions at the moment but looking forward to transfer activity and looking forward to more videos like this to get me stoked for the upcoming season.

Loving your channel mate, so glad the situation got sorted! 👍

Sophie hit the nail on the head with Middlesbrough’s slow starts. They are always playing catch-up.

If both boro and cov start their seasons in August and not the usual November, top 2 definitely on the cards 👀😅 keep up the good work mate

You’re so awesome both of you. Both. Love your videos. Love them all. What a cool and awesome video, I love your predictions.

With Mousinho at the helm and the full backing of the Eisners, I reckon mid table for us next season, wouldn't be surprised if we finished higher but mid table for me, Fratton park is an intimidating place so I cant see us losing too many points at home, so really all down to our away form which was unbelievable last season, all depends on who we get in really.

Great video. QPR fan here. Good shout as to where we're likely to finish I think and I agree with many of these predictions (albeit it's all subject to transfer activity, etc). Pleased and relieved for you after the issues you went through earlier this week.

Great to have you back on Matt 😁 PUSB

Coventry i will thankyou now for the 6pts coming Prestons way in the forthcoming season...Matt & Sophie your show is the best of the lot.❤

As a Wednesday fan I’d love a dull mid table season TBH. But it’s possible we could do better. The Steel City Derby is definitely something that adds a bit of extra spice to the season. I think we will be top 10 with a reasonable transfer window. We’ve already resigned Bannan which is good news. Fingers crossed 🤞

Hi Sophie and Matt. Here are my Championship Predictions for 2024/25 season final places. I really enjoy your channel. 01. Norwich City 02. Hull City 03. Leeds United 04. West Bromwich Albion 05.

I cant wait to do this myself, great video as always

Argyle fan look forward to proving you all wrong! Wayne Rooneys Green and White Army 💚

A building season for my team Pompey. I would be happy with mid table

Happy u still going bro👍 💓

Great video

With Boro, it's all about hitting the ground running and players staying fit. Injuries absolutely destroyed us last season and we still finished just shy of the playoffs. If lady luck shines on us, we could be top 2.

Glad to see you and Sophie back!, have to agree with you on my team Bristol City. Any higher than mid table would be great though. COYR

Great content, fellow Cov fan here, and yes I am biased but with a couple of decent additions I can really see us pushing for automatic promotion this time. The poor finish to last season is a concern but I'm putting thst down to the Cup defeat. In MR we trust, PUSB.

Stoke supporter here our form over last 10 games would have placed us 5th. Which is roughly when changes were made behind the scenes at the club. Like a lot of teams it will depend on recruitment which for last 5 to 6 seasons has been awful at Stoke hence changes were made. Anything above half way would be a positive compared with previous seasons.

So happy you sorted your problem out, Matt. As long as wednesday don't stress me out like last season,I'll be happy 🙂

Championship predictions 24/25 1st Burnley 2nd Leeds United 3rd West Brom 4th Luton Town 5th Sheffield United 6th Norwich City 7th Coventry City 8th Middlesbrough 9th Wednesday 10th QPR 11th Hull City 12th Portsmouth 13th Sunderland 14th Watford 15th Stoke City 16th Millwall 17th Derby County 18th Preston 19th Blackburn Rovers 20th Swansea City 21st Bristol City 22nd Plymouth Argyle 23rd Oxford United 24th Cardiff City

I really wish everyone would stop writing off Oxford United and Plymouth Argyll. They are not the same animal as a Rotherham United, and have far greater ambitions than the likes of a Peterborough United or Wycombe Wanderers going forward, compared to when they came up then went straight back down. I think the pair of them could cause a few upsets next season, and maybe finish well clear of the drop zone. Des Buckingham - perfect manager for the club, can't argue that one. Also I feel it's Rooney's time to shine - 3rd time lucky as they say. Of course it is possible they both get relegated, but I'd really love to see them prove everyone wrong and actually make progressive in the Championship over the coming seasons.

Welcome back matt and sophie

I'm a Bristol city fan and I totally agree with everything you two have said and I do personally feel like bigger teams don't take us too seriously and that's why we do well against them

214th, love the videos. Here are my current predictions: 1. Leeds (P) 2. Luton (P) 3. Middlesbrough 4. Norwich (P) 5. Burnley 6. West Brom 7. Coventry 8. Portsmouth 9. Sunderland 10. Derby 11. Watford 12. Hull 13. Sheffield United 14. Swansea 15. Bristol City 16. Sheffield Wednesday 17. Stoke 18. QPR 19. Preston 20. Milwall 21. Cardiff 22. Plymouth (R) 23. Blackburn (R) 24. Oxford United (R) It will be close at the bottom of the table, I even think Oxford United could survive.

I honestly believe Portsmouth and QPR are going to have great seasons and yes Leeds will win the championship as for Burnley I'm not sure how they will respond after Kompany going to Munich. Last but not least Rooney going to Plymouth I think there must be money for transfers otherwise why would he have gone to Plymouth.

Don’t underestimate us a lot of good things happening at oxford. New stadium and ambitions to be a top 30 club we wont be coming into the leauge to make the numbers up so if we do go down were go down fighting. COYY 💛💙

My early bold prediction: Derby County/Portsmouth/Oxford United will win the Championship (Bring the vibes of the 1984/85 and 1986/87 seasons).

Nice and modest of you two, but this is now THE SEASON for Coventry, I see Sky Blues built a good teamwork, core team stays, they proven to be able to take down teams like Leeds, Liecester... also playing on such high level with Man Utd, that's already call for top 3. Regardless the quality of relegated teams, this is what our team should be aiming for.

An impossible task this, but fun to listen to. I have a feeling that Prem spending will be a lot less than last year, so that could allow more Championship clubs to survive the annual scouring. Here's hoping! The Championship should be great viewing this season, and I look forward to the Ultimate Battle: Sophie's vs Matt's Predictions. Suggestions for a future prediction video: first manager to go, after which match will Watford jettison their gaffer, manager of the year, player of the year, furthest progress in the FA Cup, club dealing the biggest drubbing in a match, and after which match will Watford jettison their second manager this year?

TOP 6 Leeds, Coventry, Sheffield United, Burnley, Norwich, Millwall. TOP 12 Hull, West Brom, Stoke, Middlesborough, Swansea, Sheffield Wednesday MID TABLE Portsmouth, Derby, Luton, Bristol City, QPR 18-21 Sunderland, Preston, Watford, Plymouth, 22-24 Cardiff, Blackburn, Oxford

New Pompey subscriber! You guys know what you're talking about. I'd definitely settle for your prediction. Good to be back in the best league. Not too fussed about Premier at the mo.

Hi there Hull City fan here Good job guys. It looks about right to me just at the moment. Recruitment and retention is going to be important for most teams. The owner at Hull City has got the managerial appointment he wanted Tim Walter from Germany . Apparently we can expect heart attack football ,so can we expect Brazil 1970's style who knows. We may be a fun team to watch but knowing the football that is normally needed to get out of the league ,I hope we dont play naively otherwise we will get picked apart.

I’m old. So I remember having to wait weeks for the week before the season started when all the newspapers would have predictions. And so I really appreciate all these early ones. Of course the question is are they useful at all? It’s just a bit of fun for most fans I guess but I bet solely on long term markets and yes I do think having the opinions of people who avidly watch football can only help. Especially as I have to start using these markets even in summer.

Thank you for the videos you 2 as a Leeds fan I agree lol

Leeds Sky Blues Borough Hull Norwich Portsmouth

Have realised that I will unfortunately have to find somebody else to watch re: predictions each week as my team, Blues, are no longer in your remit - a sad day as did enjoy your channel, am subscribed so will still be notified & hopefully we will be back up next year

What you said about Watford was spot on. Some of our fans have lowered their expectations to mid/lower half of the table, but Tom Cleverley done well at the end of the season IMO, so hopefully we can do better than expected.

Welcome back Luton town ready for another great season

Cov 3rd or 4th, Robins will make sure we've got better squad depth next season. 5 away points against the top half, needs big improvement.

Argyle are staying up next season, hopefully better position than this season just finished, hopefully well above the drop zone, maybe mid table

i agree with your prediction slightly Leeds United Burnley Luton Town Sheffield United Norwich City Hull City Middlesbrough Coventry City West Brom Sunderland Watford Stoke City QPR Preston North End Blackburn Rovers Stoke City Bristol City Swansea City Sheffield Wednesday Cardiff City Derby County Portsmouth Plymouth Argyle Oxford United

The mood in plymouth is still 50/50 on rooney , but in the last few days we have made a couple of new signings .... hopefully we can get mike phelan as rooneys no2 , i thinknthat would be massive for us .... i can see why everyone has us to go down but time will tell ... i got us to absolutely destroy the championship and win promotion by Christmas ( lol )

Look at end of season form- which team won their last 3- winning away at promoted Southampton and 7-0 aggregate home wins

Nice video

My favorite KZfaq duo 💙

Burnley will definitely go up again. They did so well in the championship last time, can't say the same for Sheffield united tho

I predict that their will be some major surprises in this league this year as every year a dark horse comes from nowhere to make top 6 and same at the other end of the table with a team last year that did well imploodes and fights in relegation places

plymouth stay up

Alll the pundits and predictors saying argyle will go down,I am a greens supporter and am not happy with the Rooney appointment,but I really hope we can stick a finger up to all of them

If Cifuentes is prized away QPR will probably be relegated.

Luton Town a decent shout for automatic promotion from the championship

One of the main reasons Blackburn did so badly was John Dahl Tomasson. He had lost most of the dressing room and couldn't organise a defensive set up. They were far more organised under John Eustace. I think there are 10 teams worse than Blackburn but they will need to replace Szmodics in some way.

As a Pompey fan I’m kinda fuming but at the same time I kinda agree.

1st season bk after 12 yrs il take that mid table. For pompey.

i agree with you for what you said about oxford i'm a oxford fan my self and i did not see us getting into the playoffs or getting promoted with the mid season we had it looked like the players didn't want to play but if the fans carry on with what we did near the end of the season we might be alright and stay up but we need to get murphy to sign a deal to stay at the club and we need to get a new goal keeper or get cummings back for another season

As a Pompey fan I basically agree with your prediction but as you say they could well finish a bit higher up in mid table.

LEEDS WILL BE CHAMPIONS!!⚪️🟡🔵

And sweet Sophie ❤

Really hope so,coyg.

Theres always a surprise package! Pompey could be riding the crest of a wave, who knows. I think given the financial backing Leeds have they will win the league this season. HMS Piss the league is about to set sail … 🔥 MOT…

Too early to make any predictions.Glad you got the channel sorted.LUFC.

My top 10 1. Leeds 2. Luton 3. Coventry 4. Burnley 5. Middlesbrough 6. Norwich 7. Watford 8. Hull City 9. QPR 10. Portsmouth

What on earth were Plymouth doing hiring Rooney? They seemed like the model well-run club slowly improving each season. Yes, they only stayed up on the final day, but most of that was down to the seismic shock of Schumacher leaving them in the lurch, and without that shock they would almost certainly have comfortably stayed up. Surely there must have been loads of potential managers who would be a much better fit: the guys at Bolton, Mansfield, Stockport, Chesterfield, etc. An up-and-coming guy from a lower league instead of a big name who has failed big time. Such a strange decision from a club that seemed so sensible and grounded. Now I would say they are almost certainties for bottom place. I'm not a Plymouth fan, by the way, I'm Norwich. So I have seen how one dreadful managerial appointment - in our case, Dean Smith - can destroy years and years of good work.

Whilst i share people’s concerns about Rooney, hiring such a big name is massive for a club like Plymouth

As a portsmouth fan I'd take us staying up somewhat comfortably this season.

Oxford look likely to go straight back down but you never know they may be ok i see Burnley coming back Leeds we'll be up there

Hull City have just announced their manager after you made this video. Top 10 for the Tigers

Id put us top 12 as well maybe could get playoffs depending on transfers, id put cov top 12 as well, the form towards the end of the season didnt scream to me that they could push on for the playoffs next season, unless of course they have a good transfer window

Hopefully Wednesday can continue with the form they showed from the moment Danny Röhl came in, in which case top 12, possible outside bet for the play-offs and t'other lot continue their dreadful form from last season!

I think that Norwich City would probably finish in 9th place in the Championship.

Argyle won’t be going down. You two have conveniently overlooked the transfer fees that will be available to us when Whittaker and Cooper are sold plus imminent investment. Rooney is now at his first STABLE club and will also have his first full transfer window to recruit in. Mid-table this season. Believe it.

Liam Kitching scored as many goals for us (Cardiff) last season as Famara Diédhiou! 😂Still think we’ll be alright though. Probably lower mid table. Think Cov will get top 6 next season. Without that cup run and the disappointment of the Luton final I can see them pushing on. Just need to start the season better. A lot of the malaise with teams like us, Sunderland and Preston seemed to be the boredom of being stuck in mid table with nothing to play for.

恭喜啊，你复活拉~！

Coventry City & Luton Town top 2

I think Luton and Leeds go up automatically with Norwich going up through the playoffs and Cardiff, Blackburn and Oxford United go down What’s your thoughts 👇

Your Bristol city was spot on 🤣🤣

1st Leeds 2nd Burnley 3rd West Brom 4th Luton 5th Hull 6th Norwich 7th Coventry 8th QPR 9th Middlesbrough 10th Sheffield United 11th Millwall 12th Sunderland 13th Watford 14th Sheffield Wednesday 15th Preston 16th Portsmouth 17th Swansea 18th Derby 19th Bristol City 20th Blackburn 21st Stoke 22nd Oxford 23rd Cardiff 24th Plymouth

Derby fan here. Genuinely worried about next season. Zero midfield and need a 1st choice keeper and striker... Unknown transfer budget. I'd take survival at this point.

Norwich, West brom and Hull were so unlucky last season and I feel will be the same or better form this season. All deserve promotion
