Scunthorpe
Southend
AFC Wimbledon

Would take four results and swing of 12 goals to send Wycombe down.

Hopefully Wimbledon will keep their rubbish ground in League 1. I like to be able to see the pitch when I go to games.

Southend coming down would be the cherry on the icing on the cake for me this season, given the away match would be a 15-minute walk away. :) Wimbledon would be nice as a local-ish game, though I generally like them to do well.

Interestingly because Scunthorpe and Plymouth are playing each other, a loss for Southend will guarantee relegation. A winner in that game would mean that Southend would have to win, at home to Sunderland.

Scunthorpe have always been proven to be extremely tough opponents for us and I expect the same thing again next time we play them .

I spotted that! Sunderland will want to win as Charlton are the form side in the play off's - and Sunderland face them as it stands.

Just noticed that Sarfend vs the Mackens is on Sky at 5 o’clock. Might watch it to see the Shrimpers relegated

MK up so no need to go to that soulless crap heap of a stadium.

Southend winning, and staying up as it stands. They started well but Sunderland were on top and missed a good chance a few mins before Southend scored (from an overhead kick from a CB :| )

Wombles still holding out at 0-0

They were dire, can't see them doing much in the play-offs

Pitch invasion to celebrate too!

Plymouth, Walsall, Scunthorpe and Bradford. All big clubs at League 2 level and will fancy they have a chance of bouncing straight back.
