Can they change the date and time of the last game unilaterally? Don't they all have to be played simultaneously?

One for any Plymouth fans later in the season. Don’t agree with this at all, complete lack of consideration for any travelling fans especially for a reason like this.

League Two and Champ have moved to the Monday but pretty sure L1 always finishes at 12 on a Sunday for TV? I recall our relegation at Fleetwood was a Sunday lunchtime.

All League 1 games have been moved to Sunday 7th at 12:30. League 2 and Championship are on Monday 8th.

Last year we were Saturday at 12.

Yeah but that was because you finished a week earlier wasnt it?

May 7th is fine with us. The last one wasnt too shabby.... 7 (SEVEN)

I completely forgot that, but you're right. I think it was something to do with the playoffs not being able to take part on the bank holiday weekend, so the League 1 playoff final was a week earlier as well.

Chris Maguire suspended from football for six weeks and fined £750 after his betting hearing.

Some of the charges were withdrawn. The money involved was minimal, but interesting to note that as part of an accumulator last season he bet on Lincoln to beat Wycombe (finished 1-1, late equaliser for Wycombe) and he played 90 minutes in that game.

Not sure if many find this kinda stuff interesting, but I do! I usually view these two Twitter accounts - https://twitter.com/BtoBAnalytics and https://twitter.com/experimental361

Suspect that graphs vary slightly between accounts but you get the gist.

Noticable how bad Lincoln are in a lot of these metrics. Could explain their heightening relegation fears.

Interesting, shows what we generally feel at Vale in that we seem to be very competitive against the bottom half sides, somewhat surprised at how well we've done against the current top 6 as we often bemoan that record but two wins and two draws is steady.

How wasteful we are in attack isn't a huge surprise given the injuries we've had and amount of games we've had to put a winger or even at one point a youth team midfielder up top! If only we'd sorted that issue in August!
