LOL

lad.

Agreed.

Apart from Emi Martinez. The guy is an arsehole.

Agreed. Good luck to them all, quite proud to think this cr@ppy little club played some part in their journeys on to whatever they go on to achieve.

By the way I’ve missed whatever it is that Emi has done to go from hero to zero, please advise.

Thanks.

He did that in response to abuse from the French fans in the stadium, which is fair enough in my book.

Watching Bristol City v Sheffield United in the play offs reminds me how far we've fallen under Dai. We were at that level when he bought us, but it looks like a different game to what we play in terms of quality.

I thought much the same. Considerably faster pace, higher levels of skill, highly entertaining game. Great to see City blow their chance, as they usually do. My least favourite team in the EFL.

Well, you'll be delighted that former Royal Rob Dickie is the biggest villain in blowing it for City with that ridiculous decision to haul down the Sheff Utd player when he was clean on goal.

Indeed, I was. At the time, I thought the ref had got it totally wrong, but after seeing it from all angles, I think a red card was the correct decision.

Poor Bristol, fielding ex Reading players in a play off campaign! No wonder their shot at promotion is now doomed.

By the way, really irritating plank of a commentator on Sky for the game last night, kept calling Nakhi Wells, Nicky Wells.

And the pundit dipstick saying that wasn’t a red card

3. 1998 - Beaten in Division One semi-final by Sunderland
4. 2003 - Beaten in Division One final by Wolves
5. 2009 - Beaten in Championship final by Burnley
6. 2012 - Beaten in League One final by Huddersfield
7. 2013 - Beaten in League One semi-final by Yeovil
8. 2015 - Beaten in League One semi-final by Swindon
9. 2022 - Beaten in Championship semi-final by Nottingham Forest

Serial play-off failures Forest and Brentford were able to finally go up via the play-offs, maybe curses are just lifting, Sheff Utd break theirs next, then...us?

Should do. They're a level above all the other teams in there.

I want Coventry to go up. I quite like Lampard and I think Coventry deserve a chance in the Premier League. They've been through a lot of rubbish over recent years

Hi Kes!

Agreed. Sheffield U and Sunderland have had enough chances. I remember Coventry getting promoted to the top flight in the first season I was interested in football, would be good to see them back there after years of crap.

[WestYorksRoyal]

Really don't want Sheffield United to go up and finish 20th again. What's the point? I bet half their fans agree with me too.

[East Grinstead Royal]

I spent far too long yesterday trying to find who has the second worst record in the play-offs (i.e. the most unsuccessful campaigns without ever winning promotion). Eventually gave up, but I am wondering whether, if Sheffield U finally break their hoodoo - will we have a new record to add to our tally?

Preston have 9 without success, we're only at 6.
