Got to remember that three quarters of the Teams we'll be facing next season have been in the National League/Conference at some point in the last 32 years (got to go that far back to include Colchester!), the only ones that haven't are Port Violent, Bradthud, Crewe*, Franchise FC*, Walsall, Gillingham & Swindle (*subject to play-offs). Now we can use a sliding scale of proper teams to what we class as tinpot pub teams we've got to play but it's what we've got.

Cook a pundit on Sky for the Donny game

[spireitetoo]

Crewes long throw is something to look out for if they don't go up, he proper fires it right into danger area..

[spireitetoo]

Donny 1 up

It always hard to judge but if those two teams are amongst the best in the league then we have a fighting chance even without a couple of high profile signings.

Comparing this with the NL final, I would have no idea which teams were the highest status.

Think we’ll miss out on them next season, they have the momentum and MK seem to be so inconsistent

[Shropshire Spireite]

Donny 2-0 up now!

[60s 70s Spireite]

2-0 for Donnie. Scored by Harrison Biggins, son of Matlock’s own Wayne

Can’t believe Richard Wood is still going. He divided opinion on here with his lack of pace 10 years ago.

All going for Donny when you consider the red card they had overturned so their keeper was available for this game.

My Dad turns 85 later this month. He could have played in goal for Donny today and they’d still have won. Crewe were absolute shoite.

Agree , Crewe were awful.

currently watching donny v crewe on delay, ok so it's a play off but the standard is not great for what are supposedly the better teams of league 2, it's scruffy, it's chaotic, neither side can string 3 passes together, i am greatly encouraged. currently at 54 mins on my delayed watch btw, who knows it may improve...

[baldyblu]

Local Derby with Donny then

I only saw extra time but thought the same. All very hectic and lacking in quality. Neither side really capable of putting their foot on the ball and taking some care over really working a good chance. Compare that to us at times this season when we’ve been looking for a late goal and we still had the composure to pass the ball and work a quality goal scoring opportunity.
