Can anyone confirm when we were last in the top 7 and how many weeks we spent there all season?

We fell out of the playoffs on December 29th and didn’t go back in to them until we went 1-0 up today.

Andddddd the second leg is back to the Friday night. 8pm kick off.

Confirmed by EFL and club.

Not the club’s fault - someone at the EFL has messed up there.


EFL website said Friday anyway.

You know that old football adage the only table that’s matters is the one at 5pm, or 3pm if you’re in the Championship, on the last day of the season.

Absolutely superb effort to be into the play-offs in all of the circumstances.

There are echoes of 1990 here. Get into the play-offs through the back door, and play a team in the semi that was achingly close to going up automatically. 4-0 home win incoming.....

It didn't. It did initially but their press release today said Saturday. Still does at the time of writing this.

And from a practical point of view, these are bonus games unbudgeted for.

Gotta be worth another significant six figure sum to CFC...

That was the point I was looking to make - there is only one table that matters and getting too excited or too miserable at any time before then is a mistake......

Hope you counted the Friday night game against Swindon - first game of season and we were top on alphabetical order.

Will have been their original piece - which obvs was correct - but when they sent the press release around which included the teams involved, it was wrong.

Seems odd that they're seemingly moveable.
