RG30 Apologies if this has been mentioned before but who would host the final were we to progress?

I believe we'll be away at the winners of the other semi (Tottenham or Chelsea).

Johnson Clarke-Harris going on a free, lots of Twitter fans saying we should go for it. Am I the only one who thinks "hell no"? He's a big name who if he doesn't go to the Championship, will go to the highest bidder and who may well smash our wage structure - should we really have anyone ...

Probably makes us favourites to make the final. Which is frankly crazy. Entirely mad end to a mad season. Incredible given Elliot, Savage, Ehibhatiomhan, Bindon, and Craig are all young enough to be in the U21 squad on age. You can add Dorsett to that list as well along with Vickers and Abbey from ...

Seen a few articles blowing smoke up Spurs' arse because their U21s topped the league. I know I'm biased but surely the real story is the cash strapped League 1 team who are now in the semis and are offering a genuine path to 1st team football. From an outside perspective on Spurs, they seem to be ...

Royals and Racers F-T Spurs 3 Liverpool 3 - gone into extra time.
After ET 3-3 gone to pens.

Tottenham through on penalties. If we reach the final, it'll mean a trip to London (if I've understood the format correctly).

How much do we look into the success of the U21s this season? Will any of them be making the step-up to 1st team football? It seems on the face of it to be quite impressive for a League 1 U21 team to be doing so well. I'm not sure how much of a correlation there is between success at youth level an...

Fair play to the ref for booking that Forest player (#10) who was telling him to ‘oxf*rd off’. Didn’t think he was going to do it.

Clyde1998 Saturday 11 May at 14:00 - Reading vs Nottingham Forest - Madejski Stadium

Same situation as last time: free entry; free parking; Lower West; etc.

Everyone's reminder for today.

Clyde1998 Doncaster won 2-0 at Crewe in their play-off first leg. The second leg is on Friday.

Crewe won 2-0 on the night and won the penalty shootout 4-3.

Milton Keynes vs Crawley in the second leg tomorrow.

The title and top six odds are now on the Sky Bet website, plus an update to the promotion odds after the play-off semi-finals have concluded: Sky Bet Title Odds (at time of posting): ⋅ 3/1 - Birmingham ⋅ 9/1 - Huddersfield ⋅ 10/1 - Peterborough; Wrexham ⋅ 11/...

It's win:win. They lose on TV on their big night out. Or They go up and get humiliated most weeks for a year. I thought that Oxford now have pretty rich owners themselves - who can afford to build a new stadium for them!? I think they do. Certainly they fought off Championship interest for Brannaga...

This. Leicester, Leeds and Southampton would probably have the highest budgets in the Championship if no side had parachute payments - giving them PP completely destroys any chance of sides competing with them financially. And yet someone did compete with them Not financially. Ipswich weren't compe...

The three relegated sides nearly always have insanely higher budgets than the rest of the Championship. That’s what the parachute payments do. I understand the 3 coming down will have parachute payments, but Leicester, Leeds and Southampton felt like a new extreme when it came to financial disparit...

Loafer Have any team ever gone through an entire season including all cups without losing a single game?

Not since the introduction of European competitions apparently.
