Reckon their owners will get bored if they get relegated or stay a few seasons in the league in the bottom half of the table.

And they will have to adhere to FFP if promoted again .

Class from Jim O'Brien, as always:

 

To my fellow Magpies,

It's with great sadness that my time with you is now over.

Firstly, I would like to thank you for welcoming me into your club at a time in my life when I was struggling to find somewhere to call ‘home’ . You gave me that home - and you gave me my love for football back. For that, I will forever be grateful.

There have been plenty of lows throughout my time with you - but the highs outweigh them all. The people I've met and the relationships formed along the way will be with me forever.

I have taken immense personal and professional pride in representing your wonderful and historic football club. So much so, that I am now a supporter and consider it to be MY club.

Being able to play a part in the club’s history, alongside some fantastic players, is something I will honour for the rest of my life.

From fighting relegation to leading the team away at Grimsby, it’s been some ride!

I hope you will remember me with fondness and as someone who gave everything every time I pulled on the shirt. It’s not “goodbye”, it’s “see you later”.

Love always,

Jim

Blackpool don't seem to have a lot of luck with their owners.

That Barnsley shirt is horrendous. It would not look out of place at a rodeo.

[Super_horns]

2-0 Bolton.

Getting revenge on Barnsley for last year I feel.

 

EDIT: 3-1.

 

Barnsley got one back but Bolton scored straight from a corner in injury time!

Watching the playoffs now and just learned that Jacob Murphy has an identical twin who plays for Oxford 

[Super_horns]

Yes Josh who played for Norwich.

 

As POSH know from last season a 1st leg lead mean very little..

It’s bloody May and the playoff game between Crawley v MK Dons has been postponed because of a waterlogged pitch.

 

**** English weather.

Going to be played tomorrow.

 

Weather permitting!

Watching a neutral match really does highlight how awful the clappers are.

[Super_horns]

Crawley got a commanding lead v MK Dons.

 

Bolton looking good too .

Were we the first with the idea?

Pitch invasion for a playoff semi victory is a bit Swiss, especially how they were beaten at home this evening.

 

Looks daft if they lose the final.

Absolute joke doing a pitch invasion for winning a play off semi. Makes me want them to lose the final. Also because I live near Bolton and most of my mates are Bolton fans

I remember entering the field of play at the end of the play off semi final vs Tranmere in 1994 😂

Jobi McAuff basically said the same .

 

Ian Evatt certainly looked relieved just to get through!

The first time I saw that the Reebok/Macron in Bolton (it'll always be The Reebok to me) was now called The Toughsheet Community Stadium, I double-took and felt sorry for Bolton fans.

All four clubs in the league two playoffs are so bland

Oh I dunno, Crawley are still owned by a cryptocurrency firm I think 😅

Good goal by Peterborough. 

Level on aggregate. 

[South Shire Fox]

Always had a soft spot for Peterborough and like their recruitment policy. Hope they go up

Two LCFC academy graduates scoring for both teams over the two legs.

Silly handball by the Peterborough player right on HT.

Crewe getting back the 2 goals at Doncaster.
