This has a very classic 3rd tier look to it doesn't it? Plenty of clubs that are accustomed to playing at this level and probably only Bolton who will feel they're way off their natural territory. Unlike most recent seasons there are now no 'fallen giants' who'll be expected to walk over everyone. Lots of juicy northern fixtures too which should bring good atmospheres. It might be a very enjoyable season ahead.
