Ups & downs 16/17

2nd half of Scunthorpe's season is just a whole bunch of WTAF?? May not even finish in the play offs now. Millwall looking strong in 7th and with a few games in hand too.

Since the start of February... LLDDDLLLLWL

genuinely interested to know what has happened to them. They looked so good for the first few months of the season but decided to throw their season off the edge of a cliff earlier in 2017.

I've heard it's something to do with the manager with one of the players wives...

Pardew isn't their manager is he?

Not sure where to put this, but Bolton are doing well, so here will do.

Since the turn of Feb, their form is DWWDLDDWWWWW

Filipe Morais has just notched his 11th assist in a month. A MONTH!

Great win for Plymouth (c'mon you pilgrims!!!) yesterday which surely all buy guarantees they join Donny in going up to League 1 next season. Blackpool storm into the play off places. Themselves in 5th and Stevenage in 4th are the 2 form teams near the top right now. Portsmouth's fixtures are reasonably kind so the 6 point gap they have in 3rd should* be good enough.....surely?

Orient dropping out the football league with a whimper. 15 goals conceded in the last 4 games

[Winston Smith]

oh and CarLOLisLOLe goes without saying really

Hibs stoppage time winner against 2nd placed Falkirk should all but guarantee their return to the SPL

Dumbarton must be wondering WTF is going on at the bottom as they were comfortably clear of the bottom 2 a while ago but those 2 at the bottom have really picked up form and are right behind them now

[Winston Smith]

Forfar doing their best to not get promoted from League 2. They have been top for ages but now haven't won for 7 games and Arbroath are getting closer every week and are now 1 point behind them with a better goal diff. Forfar home to Arbroath in 12 days time!

Brora Rangers top of the Highland League (Cove are 1 point behind with 2 games in hand) and East Kilbride are top of the Lowland League. Winners of these play each other then the winner of that plays the last placed team in League 2 (Cowdenbeath atm) to see who is in League 2 the next season.

Pompey looking ok in 3rd in Div 4 now but Stevenage are on a great run and beat them at the weekend.

chase for the play offs looks great. 8 points separates 5th place down to 13th.

Wonder what's up at Carlisle, spent the first half of the season being unbeatable but the second half so far losing virtually every game

2nd in the league on 31st December, since the turn of the year they've P16 W3 D4 L9. Brutal

They sold their main centre forward in January, their important midfielder Jason Kennedy got injured, a takeover collapsed and the fans believe that their financial difficulties have lead to the players being told that they will no longer get paid any bonuses for the remainder of the season.

Brora Rangers would be a great addition to the Scottish Leagues, 225 miles North of Glasgow (that's further than Elland Road is from the Madejski for example), and for something like an Away Day at Stranraer it would be about a 700 mile round trip

The problem being is that they are a Scottish Highland League club, and this amount of travel would be a bit excessive for a part-time club like Brora. They've actually been in this position before and been reluctant to go up but more recently the club and members seem ready for potential promotion https://stv.tv/sport/football/scottish- ... nce-fears/

It makes you realise how large in terms of area Scotland actually is, here's a pretty cool map of all the club locations in the leagues https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mi ... 125036&z=7

Never realised Ross County was so far North in Scotland.

Also looking at their local town, its more like a village - and a sh1t one at that

[From Despair To Where?]

Same could be said for most provincial Scottish clubs although to be fair to you, the whole of the population of Dingwall could fit inside Ross County's ground with room to spare and it's only got a capacity 6,500.

Tim Sherwood not helping Swindon's cause, the f*cking mug.

It helps us when he's not around 3 games not attended in the last 10 or so and we've won them. The games he's turned up at, we've lost. Ah well at least he can play billy big b*llocks even more so in L2 next year!

[Winston Smith]

2 wins in a row for Swindon. 3 points from safety now.
