Football League Championship, League One and League Two 2023/24

What a job Liam Rosenior has done at Hull on a limited budget. Looks like he was the brains behind Rooney's good season at Derby as well when they nearly overturned the points deduction.

So it actually happened..

CRAWLEY MADE THE PLAY-OFFS!

On a side note I had to be doubly sure on this but three West Sussex clubs all made their respective play-offs. Three Bridges, Horsham and Crawley. That's absolutely insane and of course Horsham had their cup run, too. What a season and hopefully at least one if not all three can go up.

Ipswich 2-1 up, need to hold on here.

And they did, despite 11 mins extra time.
Need 1 point on Saturday to guarantee promotion.

Be nice have Ipswich back in the prem.

Against an already relegated (barring a 15 goal swing) Huddersfield while Leeds play 4th place soton

Only we could fuck that up.

I remember going to their play-off semi with Bolton at Portman Road and then the Wembley final after that when they were last promoted as a mate and his dad had a spare season ticket. Didn't realise until this match that it's been 22 years now since they got relegated. Fuck me...where does the time go?! Doesn't make me feel any younger, that's for sure!

The bottom is really interesting yet again with any one of four teams going down including Blackburn which would be mad after just missing out on the playoffs last season. The top is a bit more straight forward for once which is a shame, absolutely love the championship final day!

2001 was just a couple of years ag...bugger, how did that happen?

But Southampton can't move a place up or down and are in the play offs, so may rest players.

And are battling injuries. I guarantee they rest a few.

There's some really good young managers in the Championship - obviously McKenna's the big story but Rosenior, Corberan, Cifuentes and Rohl have all done superbly well. Think the days of Pulis and Bruce being seen as a safe pair of hands are over.

About as good of a final day you can hope for. A promotion spot, playoff spot, and two relegation spots on the line.

Yeah looking forward to switching between the games this afternoon.

Ipswich leading, Leeds drawing.

It'll take an epic collapse for Ipswich to lose this.

 

[cjbyid]

Reckon Leeds will stay down.

Don't see them getting through the playoffs

They shat the bed at the worst possible time and their confidence is shot to bits, so I agree but I still don't really see WBA or Norwich beating them or Saints over two legs so I still think the final will be a rematch of today's game.

In which case Saints will have a huge psychological advantage if they hold on to a win now.

 

[philll]

Woo, Plymouth are 1-0 up against Hull City.

It'll be West Brom - Corberan was unlucky not to go up with Huddersfield and he's probably the best game-by-game manager in the league.
