They showed a list of teams with the worst play off records going. Think Sheff U we?re top with 9, was a team with 7 (Lincoln maybe) and a handful on 6 including Leeds and Bury

Ours isn?t much better, but atleast we?ve managed to win one

Preston also went 9 campaigns failing to win a play off promotion, until 2015 when they defeated us and then Swindon.

Dion Dublin, probably wouldn't get in the top ten strikers whose first name is Dion.

Played at the very top level though.

He always mentions it when he?s nearby. ?I?m not too popular around these parts?

Don?t think it helped that when he was filming for HutH a few years ago in Grassmor, he called at the Coop in North Winfield and claims to have been racially abused in the car park!

Hi Chris. ( I know quite a few posters on here. All my friends)

First ever post on here, here goes.

I've been a town fan all my life and only got rid of my season ticket at the end of the Allen \ Carson debacle for some context to my background.

I see all the play off teams that were favourites on the day lost this year. Heard a stat that in Leeds last six play off final appearances they have failed to score a goal! Wow!

I think the blunts good the record for being the most bobbins in play off finals though ha

This year, the teams that finished the season in the highest play-off spot in all of the top six leagues in England (i.e. championship, league one, league two, National League, NLN and NLS) failed to win promotion ? I wonder if that has ever happened previously since the introduction of the current promotion structure.

No mate, he got a dig in about scoring the goal that beat us.

Oh sorry mate I thought you meant you got a dig in at him. I was half asleep when I read it this morning lol.

Surely a first?
