Some good teams coming up from L2 - L1 will be tougher next season.
Other than Carlisle who came up via the playoffs, this season we've finished well behind the 3 automatically promoted L2 teams from last season! A sign of our failure this season, to finish so far below Stevenage, Orient and Northampton...
Yeah, the 3 promoted teams will all challenge next season I reckon and the ones coming down from the Championship will all be up there too. It will be a far harder division next season I reckon even without Pompey, Derby and possibly Bolton.

Maybe Wrexham who will no doubt have an ever bigger budget than currently, but I don't think Stockport or Mansfield will finish in the top 8. Agree that the relegated teams will all feature in the play off push though.
It's possible that the 3 promoted teams from last season will have "second season" syndrome, especially Stevenage without Evans. I imagine Lincoln may lose players and their manager too.
Been on Owlstalk, he's a big favourite there, as you are probably aware of with your Sheffield contacts.
Still made me feel a bit of sick in the mouth.
He'll always be a Charlton man. I'd not be surprised if he's Wednesday's manager next season, there is talk Danny Rohl will leave at the end of the season.
Should Leicester win their final two matches then they will reach the 100 point mark. That is a remarkable feat for one reason alone and that is they will have lost 10 matches - something that has probably never been previously achieved in the history of the football league. We dropped 40 points drawing games whereas Leicester will have lost just 8 points doing so with an overall differential between the sides of 47 points - and yet we only lost 5 more matches than them.
Draws are OK when they are "good" ones away to the top sides but too many of them are no good to any club that aspires to be promoted.
Leicester clinch the title with 2 goals for young Jamie Vardy. That's 190 goals for them I think.
Was just at the game, Preston capitulated after the first goal, lack of real effort on their behalf, wasteful of their few chances ( actually quite good ones ) and defensive mistakes. Was just like watching Charlton.
That said Vardy made very intelligent runs and all round solid from Leicester, Cool as you like! Good to see Mavadidi thriving also.
Can't imagine Huddersfield wanting to do Leeds any favours either.
I know technically they're trying to stay up, but they aren't overturning the goal difference.
Leeds will fold in the play-offs Too many times a team in a position like Leeds, it all goes sideways. Huddersfield are basically down, Ipswich will roll them over. Nice to see Wednesday are very likely to stay up

A Hull result though makes the Play-Offs interesting until the final day at the very least.
