Royalwaster Looks like RFC and QPR are definites now for going down - not sure who we'd want to join us to give us the best chance of promotion next season.


Wigan!! They're in europe next season and that will screw them over big time! 46 league games, league cup, fa cup, europa cup on a sunday and thursday. They wont cope.

Jay o/
Ian Royal Come on Posh, hang in there. Then I can fail to enjoy my bi-annual visit to London Road to see us get comprehensively turned over.


Sadly they've knocked down the away terrace as well. The stand will be open for the start of next season.



.... yet they get to keep the terrarced home end?

Isn't it be turned into seating? That or it closes for next season doesn't it? As for the new stand, Wiki says "as of March 2013 construction had not started." They could be 7000 under capacity if that's the case.

Tonight Cardiff could go up, Hull could be all but mathematically up, Pompey could go down, Hartlepool could go down. Torquay Vs Barnet will be interesting, a Torquay win keeps it more interesting for the neutral I guess.

Stockport could drop down to the 6th tier. In your face Kevin Francis!

Not forgetting a massive "C'mon Hull" at Wolves.

Bristol City relegated to League 1
Pompey relegated to League 2 and rather angry on Twitter. Amazing how quickly you become ungrateful.

It's a beautiful evening.

Don't we want Wigan to go down? They have to juggle Thursday and Sunday European trips next season. That could really hurt their season!
