I see tv has messed with these games as well, none at the weekend.

 

Someone I sort of work with supports Walsall and he said they blew a 15 point lead to then miss out on the final day, so not them anyway.

 

Cov, Stockport, Chesterfield

 

Coventry
Orient
Walsall

 

Bristol City.

 

Oh dear. Not my best prediction that one!

 

Sheff Utd in the final after that result, and can even afford to rest a few players in the second leg.

 

Manning not happy with the red card.
Not happy in the slightest!

 

We lost 0-2 to Hull

 

Yes, we had a perfectly good goal disallowed too IIRC !

 

I hope he is calling out his player for being stupid and not the ref for doing what he had to do.

 

Yes - absolutely no infringement at all.

 

Yep, Sh1ttu from a corner in the first few mins I think

 

Of course not. It's a completely pathetic response from a sore loser. His player made a big error yet he's trying to pretend he was playing the ball. Sure, he kicked it, but only after wrestling Moore first.

 

Agreed. I like Liam Manning, he’s a good coach, but he’s being a very bad loser here.

He’s doubled down now saying the ref shouldn’t have been given the game: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cpqej87pj2zo

Seems a classic case of deflect the blame to me!

 

I hope the promoted side comes from tonight's pair. Should be a good match.

 

Cov/Sunderland has been a really good game - proper hammer and tongs stuff from both teams. Sunderland perhaps lucky to win but it’s really well poised now for the second leg.

 

Horrible moment for their full back, said to my mate down the pub you’d want the earth to swallow you up.

 

Really hope Sheff U go up, as the other three teams wouldn’t stand a chance next season (most likely Sheff wouldn’t either tbh but they look by far and away the best of the four).

 

A bit boring for Sheff U to have yet another go, but I agree they are comfortably the best candidates.

 

Randell Williams, ex Watford, playing for Stockport.

 

Or maybe Leyton Orient?!

 

Is the question who do we think will go up or who do we want to go up?

Notts County are playing AFC Wimbledon now and I’d quite like them to win the play-offs (I’m sure Wimbledon will be up there next season). It seems ages since they were even in L1 (spent four seasons in non-league) and I feel to be spending 30+ years below the top two tiers is a huge underachievement for a club of their size, especially when you consider the number of small clubs that have been in the second tier or higher since they were last there.
