    Luckily their biggest rivals for the last play-off place, Sheff Utd and Middlesbrough, both have quite an easy run of fixtures too.

    Millwall are goign to have win at least two of those three and hope the others have a couple of losses themselves.
    11 days ago.

    Was never in doubt.

    Thank you Sheff Utd. Can finally relax for the remaining days of the season.

    Even if Millwall got in I can’t see anyone beating Forest

    I don’t think Forest will be in the playoffs, they’ll pip Bournemouth to 2nd.

    I think they'll do it too, if Cooper had been there all season they'd have won the title.

    They took 1 point from their first 7 games under Hughton.
  • Nottingham Forest have quickly gone from 1-1 to 3-1 up

    Continuing to put pressure on Bournemouth who are only leading 1-0 @ Blackburn.
  • Christ almighty... League Two's turn to be completely ridiculous

    Bristol Rovers started the day in 4th (top placed side in the Play-Offs) on 74-pts, they're now 8th and out of the Play-Offs as things stand.

    Port Vale (4th) | Mansfield (5th) are both on 75-pts - Swindon (6th) | Sutton (7th) | Bristol Rovers (8th) are on 74-pts

    Tranmere cant be counted out either, who are 9th on 72-pts

    Bournemouth now 3 up at Blackburn. Cant help thinking the news that Mowbray wont be manager next season has had an effect on both players & fans. Blackburn now out of the play off picture.

    Nor Salford. They play Mansfield in a couple of days. Win that & they are also still in it.

    We'll have to create a new and passionate rivalry with either MK Dons or Wycombe Wanderers...
  • Anyone know why league one finished today but the championship and league two still have another week to go?

    Yes, it's called honesty & calling a spade a spade. Not mealy mouthed soundbites.

    I think it's because the late May Bank Holiday on which day the Championship game is usually played is not on the Monday this year due to the Queen's Platinum Jubilee moving it to the end of the week instead. So there are only 2 days (Sat & Sun) to play the games, hence putting League 1 on the week before.

    As I say, it's just my assumption.

    George Lapslie currently playing on Sky Sports for Mansfield

    They're 1-0 down @ Salford (12mins gone) in what is a Play-Off chasing game for both sides.

    Typical... Goes 1-1 as I say that

    Mansfield now 1-2 up right on half-time - Defeat means Salford cant be promoted

    A win for Mansfield, and any kind of result for Port Vale against Newport (after this game), means that there will be four teams, all within two points of each other, that can finish 3rd on the final day.

    If Port Vale win later, then those four teams are separated by a point

    Both League One and League Two have been ridiculously tight this season.

    Play-Offs are over for Salford City... Entertaining game ended in a 2-2 draw.

    Port Vale vs Newport County up next, race for 3rd is as follows:

    3rd - Northampton: 77-pts (+20)
    4th - Bristol Rovers: 77-pts (+15)
    5th - Mansfield Town: 76-pts (+15)
    6th - Port Vale: 75-pts (+21)
    7th - Swindon Town: 74-pts (+20)

    The whole Play-Off picture can still change with the following still able to drop out completely:

    5th - Mansfield Town: 76-pts (+15)
    6th - Port Vale: 75-pts (+21)
    7th - Swindon Town: 74-pts (+20)
    8th - Sutton United: 73-pts (+14)
    9th - Tranmere Rovers: 72-pts (+12)

    From that group; Mansfield and Port Vale have potentially the hardest games as Exeter and Forest Green will be chasing the title.

    Although Forest Green's form has dropped off a vegan cliff.

    AFC Barrow vs Northampton Town
    Bristol Rovers vs Scunthorpe United
    Exeter City vs Port Vale
    Harrogate Town vs Sutton United
    Leyton Orient vs Tranmere Rovers
    Mansfield Town vs Forest Green Rovers
    Walsall vs Swindon Town

    Port Vale lose 1-2 against Newport County, so its as things are above, despite dominating the second half.

    Fulham vs Luton next; Win for Fulham will see them take the League title, win for Luton sees their Play-Off spot confirmed.

    With just 1 game to go Swindon, currently 7th (playoffs) could finish as high as 3rd (automatic) or as low as 9th.

    Luton need to go ultra defensive here... their Goal Difference is getting slaughtered

    If Luton lose and Middlesbrough draw on the final day - Millwall only need to win 2-0

    Thank god they're @ Bournemouth
