All to play for cloughie, the winners of this tie will surely win the final won't they ?

Halifax drew today which means only SCFC or Wrexham can now win the league, at around 2:30 pm tomorrow however .............

May the Eighth be with you edge - will it be a record crowd for the National - possibly not with some of the fallen ‘giants’ that have graced the tier in recent years!

Shaping up well for Forum allegiances - Grecians and Gas up from League Two!

Hangers not troubled the playoffs or relegation zone this season - I’d call it a good reentry to the league, anton!

Yes Rob, all the best for tomorrow, remember AFC Wimbledon have fulfilled our part of the bargain so now it's County's turn and that pint at Edgeley Park or Plough Lane is yours!

For anyone interested (or not) our last game in League One was one of the best I've seen all season. Though I did only arrive at half-time, so missed Accrington Stanley's three goals. But then two of our youngsters scored in quick succession and the team picked up confidence. Ended with another goal apiece, so we lost but it was incredibly dramatic and the standard of our play much better than recently. Great atmosphere in the fanzone afterwards for the awards, someone said it was the happiest relegation ever and to be honest, we're back home and that's more important, although obviously we want to get back up as soon as possible.

The mistakes this season that sent us down were pretty obvious -- wrong choice of manager (had managed youth teams successfully but never a senior team!), sale of star striker to Wrexham (sorry Rob!), and player transfers decided by committee using data analytics which have supposedly been successful for Brentford. The promoter of this last idea was allegedly our relatively new CEO (funnily enough, ex-CEO now) one Joe Palmer. Cloughie, if you're still on (or when you're back), you're a Wednesday fan, he came from there didn't he, I'd be interested to know your thoughts ...

Anyway Rob, fingers crossed for tomorrow.

....must have been quite amazing at Memorial Gnd....we never hit the headlines usually; excepting exploits of manager....didn't even think we would get in playoff, and at one moment relegation looked imminent ......all best for play offs....COME ON WALLOP!!

....possible Pogba may refuse Hangers; too far to go for haircut....

Listening to Radio Wrexham - bit biased the Welsh, aren't they.

Not what you were needing, Rob...on the plus side, it's still in your own hands.

Yep, poor poor show after such a promising opening 20 mins or so, assuming Wrexham win their last game we need 4 points from our last 2 games to crawl over the line.
Great result for the Buddies yesterday btw John,

Wrexham 3 Stockport County 0
