So who do you fancy playing next season.
For me
Sarfend
Wimbledon
Wycombe

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

Hopefully Southend. Wimbledon have done exceptionally well to give themselves a chance on the last day.

Interesting game in League 2, MK Dons are playing Mansfield. Winner to go up.

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
)

It's all changing now. Sarfend in the drop spot.
Wombles still holding out at 0-0

I was looking forward to a trip to Roots Hall. Now it looks like a trip on a Tuesday winters night to Home Park

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.
