Congratulations.

Not even 8th but 7th.

It was the main match I was following on BBC Football other than for fantasy football points.

(We're delighted to announce that Gary Mills will be STAYING on as York City manager! #YCFC, 22 hrs)

anton, what can I say - you've survived so many applications for re-election, been 89 or 90 a time or two, 2005 came close to the Championship but aet lost to a sleeping giant. Let's just hope the side you lost to then also leaves the EFL this season, and that the Hangers will be back before too long. Maybe one of your and our former players can do the job. Ritchie Humphreys as player/manager might just do the job.

Please win today!

Your teams are playing tomorrow maestro.

Cheers ts - I think it could be 96 years before we get back ........

After today's Div 2 matches, Exeter by losing to Carlisle, lands them as 5th and 6th thus meaning they meet again twice in the playoffs with not inconsiderable journeys to play the two legs.

Course it won't.

looking at the other end of L2, it seems almost anything is possible.

at least your stadium isn't falling down.........

Keep the faith, we'll be rooting for you again next season.
