Its the time of the season where the clubs who are likely to join league 2 either through promotion, or relegation are beginning to become clearer. Who do you see here next season, and who would you like? Bolton and Southend are highly likely to be here, but the other slot could see Tranmere, Rochdale, Wimbledon and MK all being involved in a scrap for precious points. Barrow are looking to be a good bet for a overdue reurn, but after that its very tight down there. I would be happy to see Barrow back, but could Notts Co make a quick return?
New ground for me in Bolton and they'll probably bring a good away following, and Southend coming back will add a good local away and another likely away sellout at our place, although there will probably be some friction around that game because of the Simon Dobbin incident last time we played them, but two good additions overall. Of the 4 likely in the mix for the other spot, in order I'd probably go AFCW, MK, Rochdale then Tranmere. Shite away end at Wimbledon but easy to get to and I think of the 4 they are the most likely to struggle. Would love to see Barrow come up as long as we don't get them away on a Tuesday night, great trip. Of the other teams in the mix I think the only one I definitely wouldn't want is Yeovil. Harrogate and Dover would be new for me, Boreham Wood, Woking and Barnet local, Notts, Stockport and Hartlepool good away trips, Halifax would probably struggle and Solihull whilst in a pretty crap location, still isn't terrible to get to. Probably Notts if I had to pick, even though they haven't "done their time".
Looking forward to Barrow coming up if it Happens and Halifax would be good too. Bolton, Southend, Wimbledon from the other direction. Wimbledon even though they irritate me at times it’s not a bad away day.
Hopefully Swindon, Plymouth, Exeter & Colchester go up. Stevenage down. Bolton, Southend and Tranmere/Rochdale come down and any two of Barrow, Harrogate, Notts, Halifax, Stockport or Hartlepool come up.
Southend and Bolton obviously down, Bolton a new one for me so all good. Tranmere for a weekend in Liverpool but we only seem to get them on a Tuesday night. Barrow look like they are coming up, then hopefully get Notts back. Good away day for us and we usually win at home
I’m hoping for Halifax to come up, great away day and a great ground and we always take loads there. Southend and Bolton of course already doomed and I’d quite like Rochdale to join them as that’s another one that we always travel well to and I’ve never been whereas I’ve been to Southend twice and been to Burnden Park but never to the Reebok.
50/50 as to whether we'll be a league club next season, if we're not allowed in you'll be stuck with Stevenage, yeah, thank us later.
