if we do go up this season(hopefully), next season will have a much nicer feel to it. The thought of playing teams like Coventry, Sheff u , Mk dons and maybe Rotherham will have a much better ring to it. it`s where a club like ours should be at least. Hopefully the man upstairs will sort it!

Possibly county Barnsley Donny. Potentially we could have all them as well.

No question that it is a much better league to be in which is why we want to get there, next few weeks we'll know and I would like to think that DA, CT, PC are well aware of what we MUST have in place this time

Hope someone has deep pockets to compete with some of those teams otherwise we could be cannon fodder.

Really looking forward to it!

Last time we were in League One, I was at Uni in Wales, so made 10/15 games tops (I know, didn't miss much).

If Notts County stay up, with Rochdale, Scunthorpe and York/Burton.. It'll be a very nice league to be in.

Carson Out.

Add Port Vale and Bradford and maybe tranmere (reckon they'll go down though) to that, fairly local. Always enjoy away days there. (Not so much Bradford for enjoyability)

Yep, would love it if York could make it - love to go to that one and Blackpool are not safe yet as well.

Have been confident all season, but what with a mixture of bad referees, bad luck and bad misses I must admit I was getting a bit nervous. It comes with the territory supporting town - even with by far the best squad in the division, we never do anything the easy way. SURELY now though we are over the line.

We must be on par with Port Vale, Walsall and Colchester regarding finances and attendances and they seem to be ok.

This season has highlighted the positions we need to strengthen to succeed at a higher level.God forbid we should make the same mistakes following our last promotion. :wacko:

I just don't see that they will make the same mistakes this time, it's integral to the long term success of the club (and Dave Allen getting return on his investment).
There has been quite a bit of future investment in the playing side in the last 18 months, buying players who could leave for ££££s later in their career which suggests long-term planning to me.

If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.
