You also have Brum on the final day who will be on the beach as champions by then - maybe playing the kids?
There aren’t any nailed on brown trousers winner-takes-all relegation classics on the final day, sadly.
Mansfield v Exeter *might* be, but I think it’s unlikely that both will be in the...
A few teams playing catch-up on Tuesday night.
Hoping for Orient to knacker Brum out as much as possible given that we play the latter on Saturday.
Wigan are absolutely horrendous to watch, but are solid defensively, so I'm hoping they can do to Hudds what they did to us and just slow...
Bah. Oh well, I can only hope that Wxm’s players get a bit knacked playing midweek in the Tinpot, otherwise they’ll be level on points when we lose to Brum next weekend.
I realise stats need context, but the Beeb says Mansfield have had more shots…good ones, or Row Z-botherers?
See Jordan Rhodes is on the bench, would be great if he could pop up with a scoring cameo. I thought Oshilaja was one of Stags’ better players as well, how come he’s not starting?
I feel like this should be Lincoln’s season, but a bunch of teams are still in it. I included the teams below 16th as well given the narrow spread of actual points, but realistically they’ve all got such shite GD that they’re not serious contenders.
There was one season a few years back where...
We were the AN Other, gate was over 70k, of which 22k was us. Obviously it’s a piss easy journey for Wycombe fans, there’s literally a direct train from Wycombe to Wembley.
Finally!
Good signing, the kind of committed player that Ainsworth is all about, and his versatility is great when it comes to injury cover as well, would probably do a job any position he was asked to.
yeah, I'd have thought that, would presumably get a bunch of Yank tourists as well there for the "Wxm phenomenon" (not a knock by the way, every team going to Wembley will pull daytrippers, it's just how it is).
that seems a horrendous arse-about-face attitude to me.
I know everyone and their dog seems to want to play "progressive" (read: tippy-tappy) football these days - but the fact is, most players at this level simply aren't good enough to pull that off consistently.
There is of course the...
Yeah, I would imagine you’ll have a mass clearout in the summer, and given your resources anyway, plus the parachute payment, you’d have to be favourites to come straight back up.
I do think he’s got a lot of potential as a manager and never wanted him to leave, but we are where we are.
He...
In the short term, things are looking slightly better for us.
The new midfielder Simons (loanee from Hull signed in Jan) seems to be a strong replacement for Aaron Morley, we had been missing some creativity in midfield which he seems to have restored.
Also we have Kone to come back...
Few promotion clashes there:
Reading have still got an outside shot at playoffs but will have to be well on it to get anything from Brum.
Bolton v Orient should be a decent top-half faceoff
Down at the other end, Cobblers v the Gas should be a nervy affair as the two sides look to claw some...
Brum are practically up barring the mother of all chokes, but the rest of us are still left fighting over the scraps.
Bumps in the road for Wxm and Hudds over the last 6, with Stockport and Orient showing the best form out of the playoff pack right now, Charlton doing well too.
meh game so far, we've had marginally the better chances I would say but BRFC forced a full stretch save from our keeper.
Our crossing has been poor and we've created little up front - we have no recognised striker on the bench either so this just goes to show where we're obviously lacking...
no Kone for us at least (good from your perspective).
Simons, creative midfielder from Hull on loan, gets his first start. He looked decent on Saturday so let's hope for a shift.
Fin Back, defensive lynchpin of the Carlisle side that were the whipping boys of L1 ( :ohm:) also makes his first...
