League One Play Offs 2023

 Sheffield Wednesday are the favourites to get promoted, indeed the bookies have them tops in a very tight market .. Wednesday finished the season in good form, Peterborough were a bit inconsistent .. however, the Posh have shown a real desire and fighting spirit and I shall be having a couple of pence on them at 4/1 ..
Today (May 8th) will see the conclusion of the Championship and League 2 fixtures .. so we will soon know which clubs are in the frame for 3 promotions .. I LOVE the play offs

    Wednesday must be feeling pretty sick. 

    96 points - the highest ever total for a side not automatically promoted and if they'd won away at a pretty hopeless Forest Green they'd have gone up.

    After that defeat they also drew with Cheltenham, Lincoln and Oxford. They also managed to lose away at Burton.
    That's a lot of points dropped in the final 6 weeks of the season.

    The standard of L1 football might not be all that, BUT most clubs were at least up for a fight in most games I saw .. and that is all you can ask .. there were a lot of upsets along with a few hammerings  ..

    (of topic a bit, we MUST show more bottle, more passion next season .. despite my opening remarks, we lost the fight in the early rounds far too often this season)

    Glad Derby never made it only because a few lauded it over me after the game in February. 

    I would like Bolton to go up i think they were one of the best footballing sides i saw this season. Wednesday are so far up their own arse another season in league 1 will do them good, and see that smug git Bannon at this level, but i fear they will do it

    Wednesday "finished the season in good form"  ;)
    They folded  from Forest Green and Cheltenham away. 
     I have loads of mates who follow Wednesday and have always liked them.  They f****** it up at the last minute and I think they'll fold, I hope not.

    I assume Lincs means that after their blip they ended the season with 4 wins out of 4, so it's not like they've limped into the play offs.

    96 points wins the league in most other seasons.

    Wednesday - Bolton final i think. 

    I thought Bolton were brilliant at home to us.

    they won their last four games, all too late .. for a club with their resources though, very poor .. as I said above, it indicates that the vast majority of L1 teams give it a right good go whatever the opposition

    Sheffield Wednesday or Bolton for me. Think those two will be strongest next season.

    What I'd like is Coventry, Wednesday and Carlisle.

    Predicting Boro, Bolton and Stockport.

    Forest Green and Cheltenham bringing six points, which should have been the case, would have seen automatic top two.
    My money says they'll be playing us next season.

    Got a real sneaky feeing Coventry will go up. Bolton from League 1, Salford from League 2.
  • Oh Eddie Youds...Oh Eddie Youds...
    Santos coming back from injury this month is massive for Bolton.
  • LincsaddickLincsaddick
    Last season I won a tidy sum on a trixie naming the 3 EFL divisional champions .. two of those champs/chumps have gone straight back down, FGR and Wigan .. an indication that every promoted team and not just those going into the Premier struggle and that every division gets stronger every season perhaps ?

    my 3 for Divisional champions this season were . Sheffield U, Bolton and Bradford .. nil points  :.   :|



    Be good to see Bradford back in L1, how a club of their stature just falls short every year is mystifying  .. my friendly pharmacist is a Mackem fan .. he doesn't want them to get promoted cos they'd get 'hammered every week' he says .. and forget the parachute cash .. I reckon he's a few pills short of a blister pack but each to their own view

    Bournemouth were "guaranteed" to be the whipping boys this season, and that never happened.

    Some pretty good guessing to be fair! Your worst prediction came 6th. I saw a bloke publish his yesterday he had Watford, MK Dons & Tranmere  :D

    A small part of me wants the Wendies to go up so they're not here spending a shite tonne again next season to win the league, but a larger part of me wants them to fail again and have another season in this cesspit of a league
    I feel the same but we need the Wendies out of this division … the teams coming down are nowhere near as strong 
    Forget who is coming down if SW go up it will still leave Barnsley, Bolton and Peterborough plus Derby and Portsmouth 
  • BigRedEvilBigRedEvil
    Want either Coventry or Luton to go up. Sunderland and Boro have had enough seasons in the PL

    Bolton because they were the best team I've seen at the valley 

    Carlisle so we can get promoted again
