Re: Play offs this weekend
MK Dons must hate the Sky cameras turning up at their matches, a month or two back they were on when they played at Stockport and lost 5-0, so that’s one scored and thirteen conceded in their last three televised matches.
Nothing against Crawley, but I hope Crewe go up, I think we’ll be playing Bolton next season as well. Much as I’d love to see a Norwich v West Brom final, I reckon you can’t look beyond the two sides who were relegated this time last year to contest the Championship final.

I thought Crawley were excellent, Scott Lindsey has them playing an exciting brand of football, playing little triangles around MK Dons, passing to players wearing the same colour shirt, always looking to attack, and fighting hard to regain possession if they didn’t have the ball.
He even had wingers that didn’t turn back once they crossed the half way line, what’s all that about???
More excitement in one game than a season of boring Bulut anti football

Swindon fans apparently were delighted to see Scott Lindsey leave. He’s brought about a remarkable turn around at a club most people - including me - expected to go down this season.
Re: Play offs this weekend
I would like Norwich to go up
Leeds and Southampton are big home games for us with decent crowds
Re: Play offs this weekend
I hope Cardiff City veterans beat Bolton.
Anybody but Leeds!
Doncaster threw it away against Crewe. I think Crawley could score 5 against Crewe.
Big shoutout to Cinderford Town, who won their Playoff final 4-0 to get back into the Southern League at the first attempt. Excellent management from Matt Driscoll who came from Aberbargeod Buds & did an exceptional job after starting with no players.
Norwich v Southampton Final Please
Just thinking about the away fans travel commitments , ground atmosphere, rivalry , rather see Baggies & Weeds stay down and Southampton.
Norwich and that barmy East Anglican cooking bird can bugger off up , and look forward to next seasons relegation battles with the other tractor boys ..
Re: Play offs this weekend
wel norwich v leeds is boring
Re: Play offs this weekend
I’d like to see Leeds go up.
Mainly because of the Welsh players and think they’re a good team and will make the championship a bit easier next year

Swansea get £2m to strengthen their squad or line the pockets of the American owners if they do

I'd like to see them deducted 180 points and plummet into the Weeds at the bottom of the pond .
Re: Play offs this weekend
Its a tough one but Id rather Rylan gets promoted than Leeds.

Yes, it was one of the clauses when they signed him.
Re: Play offs this weekend
Three halves of football and no goals yet in the.Championship Play Off games, the West Brom v Southampton game has been an improvement on the first match so far at least though.

Apparently it was in 2011. You really don't want to know what happened next...
Re: Play offs this weekend
Little quiz question to think about -
After beating MK Dons, Crawley will now play at Wembley for the first time. There's still 1 current football league team who haven't played there. Who?
Re: Play offs this weekend
Accrington Stanley....? always love that name...have a soft spot for them...
