Burton will stay up on GD without picking up another point. Cheltenham will draw one and lose 2 Vale will lose at Bolton by 2 or 3 goals before winning against Cambridge Fleetwood will draw at Orient and beat Burton Final table 20 - Burton 43pts (-30 GD) 21- Port Vale 43pts (-32) 22 - Cheltenham 42...

Championship promotion race really hotting up Soton beat PNE 3-0 last night and now sit just 5 points behind Ipswich with a game in hand. That game in hand - Leicester (a) next Tuesday. Soton also finish the season at Leeds. Seems guaranteed that the top 4 sides will all finish with over 90 points, ...

Mansfield confirm their place in L1 and will play in the 3rd tier for the first time since 2002/03.

At the other end, Forest Green suffer back to back relegations and drop out of the EFL after 7 seasons.

Colchester's home win over Grimsby all but condemns Dean Bouzanis' Sutton to relegation too.

After tonight's results, I think it's 0 (1) now. :lol: If we want to keep it going in case of the extra 2 points then the deduction total is 2. We would be on 48 - Burton can get to 49 - so any result there on Saturday removes any modicum of concern that that deduction could impact us. Only thing t...

If the team are not on the beach this should be a comfortable 2-0 win. We will score, so just need to defend well and we should win - if we get ahead early and news filters through of Cheltenham winning, they will panic and we should be able to pick them off.

Chesterfield, having got to 90 points after 35 games, have now picked up just 5 points in their last 10 games. Clearly massively taken the foot off the gas once it became clear they were up. Went from losing just 3 games in those first 35 to 10 now. Question is, how fair is that on other sides with...

Hmm something stirring? SCL have just posted a video of Bearwood which seems a bit random and that Huang Kad chap is making some noise again Huang Kad has basically revealed exactly what was posted on here earlier - that was from a new account to here so could be the same person. Nope, can confirm ...

LUX Looking forward to this evening’s games.

Who have Burton and Cheltenham got ?
Does it affect our magic number ?

I'm pretty certain that Burton have Cheltenham but no idea who Cheltenham have.

To add fuel to the Redwood Capital fire, it does look like that company are looking to put together an investment in the UK. Speculation as they may just be looking to invest in the UK generally but interesting reading… Companies House has an entity called “Red Uk Purchaser Limited” being incorpora...

Chelsea 4-0 up and their players still make a fool of themselves. Idiotic scenes with that penalty. Absolutely - didn't see any of them wanting to take the 100th min penalty to equalise v Utd did you? Who cares if Palmer had his hattrick already - it is his job, so unless he decides to let you have...

In the 2. Bundesliga, twin town club Fortuna Düsseldorf are making a late impressive surge towards the promotion picture having taken 21 points from the last 9 (W6,D3). This coinciding with Hamburg's now traditional late season collapse has pushed them into 3rd place and the promotion play-off spot ...

rabidbee You can support Bolton against Oxford and then switch in the final. I want Bolton to go up and Derby to stay down, just for the lols.

I want Derby to go up just to see all their fans give it the full, we are back treatment then get relegated as per most Paul Warne seasons in the Championship.

The recruitment last summer was great, but we did have Jared Dublin in the build up. I wonder how important he was. From the outside, it looks like Bowen and Carey are more old-school in how they go about things, using relationships, reports etc., to identify targets, whereas Dublin filled in a gap...

Given the last few years I'm not sure we should really be lolling at clubs with batshit mental owners seemingly intent on screwing the club into the ground. That said, £3 billion? Just how could a stadium cost that much unless you're using it for money laundering purposes? Clubs are always going to...

Their involvement can give them some golden years and leave them in a much better position when they finally leave, but long term I don't see how Wrexham can sustain a Championship team in the same way we can't sustain a Premier League club. Population, geography and being a "big club" do...

We've already achieved the number of points needed to ensure that four teams finish below us. Therefore it is 0! Magic number doesn't take into account teams playing each other - it is just a simplistic guide to how close you are to achieving a goal. We know we have achieved it but for "comple...
