Leeds were a special case, they gambled on getting Champions League football every season and when that failed it backfired spectacularly and they ended up in massive debt and sliding down the leagues (similar story to Sheffield Wednesday). I don't understand how Ipswich could have ended up...
Wow, just worked out Ipswich could actually be relegated tomorrow night, though with Reading playing at Norwich that's unlikely.
Still, a far cry from the club that nearly played Champions League football this same millennium.
Massive wins for Orient and Stockport to put the title in their hands both with four games to go, hope they hold on and manage to seal promotion before the final day.
What happened at Truro? The BBC was still showing the match to be in progress at 17:30 before they announced the match was abandoned for unknown reasons. But the NLS table shows 38 games having been played by the two, same as all the others.
You could say that about Newport and look what happened at their place.
Still, you're right, that's the way it usually works out, and I hope it does in Notts County's case.
To Oldham fans - is this more or less where you expected to be come the start of the season? Looks a very disappointing campaign (so far) but maybe you need at least another season to acclimatize to this division.
Indeed they have, fantastic result for you lot at a team that don't have the best home record, but with only 12 goals conceded before tonight are clearly very difficult to break down.
On a related note - it's interesting that Wednesday sacked Luhukay after a run of only 5 points in 10 games...
How on earth are Wigan just one goal away from being in the relegation zone all of a sudden, I pretty much ruled them out not so long ago.
Seems some QPR fans' fears were not exaggerated and they could be well be a late candidate - I mean, if you can't beat Rotherham at home (wasn't it their...
What's Bristol City's game in hand?
I'd like to see Wednesday make the last play-off spot but even with all the teams around them dropping points left, right and centre, Jos may have left them with too much to do.
With the games Carlisle and their play-off rivals Forest Green had and Carlisle's superior form, who would've thought that FGR would be leap-frogging them in the table? But that's the crazy nature of League 2 for you.
That sums up Neal based on his time at our club, obvious qualities of leadership but maybe in your position you need a less thoughtful and quiet type of manager to get your players' arses into gear.
But it seems this time he's really showing who's boss and this could be the catalyst to...
Once again, just when Villa seem well and truly out of it, they pull off a result or two that puts them back into contention.
But is it fair to say that this is a pretty poor division this season, the top 3 apart? Everyone down to 15th place Swansea has a chance, Preston are now in the mix...
A shocking result, but I decided to hold back commenting on a match I didn't see and wait and see what Notts fans had to say about it, because even in a 4-1 defeat to one of your relegation rivals where you have only one shot on target there could be mitigating circumstances. But now it's clear...
This title tussle between Chorley and Stockport is proving to be as fascinating as the one between Torquay and Woking in NLS. Chorley looked nearly uncatchable at one point and it seemed Stockport were playing for the highest play-off place, but then they let Stockport in it, and now it's...
I had a look at all the sides that have been relegated from the League since automatic promotion and relegation between the League and Conference was introduced in 1986, to find out what sides have been relegated after finishing in the promotion positions the previous season.
I found three...
Very sad to see what's happened to Aldershot BTW. Spent all that time and effort getting back into the League as the new club only to throw it away after a mere five seasons, and worse still look certain to be playing sixth tier football next season.
Where's it all gone wrong and what could...
I would have more sympathy for Ebbsfleet if they had a secretary who knew how to write in proper sentences, that bit in italics doesn't even make grammatical sense.
Well you can do that at every away game in the Premier League (at least the ones I've been to, I've still yet to go to a few grounds), so not much of an endorsement.
Or do you mean the terraces, but don't all League 2 clubs still have them as well?
Is it fair to say that the only major positive about being in the Conference is getting promoted from it?
Luton fans hated it down there and they were winning games most weeks.
