League One Play Offs

[Dick Swiveller]

So - who do you want to go up now it doesn't affect us?

Scunthorpe - Struggling here - Ian Botham maybe?
Fleetwood - The Champions of Europe going to Highbury. Local owner invested a (relative) large amount of money to fly up the leagues.
Bradford - Big support albeit due to cheap STs - still impressive though.
Millwall - I'm guessing suppliers of fittings to the stadia will look forward to extra income after the Leeds games.

Just had a look - Fleetwood's total attendances for the season is 2 and a half games at the Amex.

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Fleetwood for sure.

Look forward to Andy Hinchcliffe and Don Goodman hyping up the massive Burton - Fleetwood game on Sky EFL coverage.

And obviously for the sheers LOLZ of Leeds and Sunderland going to Fleetwood.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Bradford, to upset the Leeds fans even more.

Pretty much this.

I'd settle for Bradford too, because it would also annoy Leeds, as well as Huddersfield if they don't go up. Even Scunthorpe, though they have played at this level in living memory. Scunthorpe v Sunderland has a certain ring to it.

Not Millwall, obviously.

Absolutely this.

Leeds at Fleetwood - absolutely HILARIO

 

[Brian Fantana]

Bradford.

Only because there's a fan of theirs in our team at work, and he has always been really supportive of us and our various causes.

If the relegation / promotion issues pan out right, I make it, there could be as many as EIGHT teams* from YAAARKSHIRE in next season's Championship.

#FlatCapTastic



* Wednesday, Hudds, Leeds, Barnsley, Boro, Hull, Sheff Utd, Bradford.

You'll get short shrift from the locals if you tell them that Boro is in North Yorkshire. I know that technically it is, but they absolutely HATE the idea.

Pandering to Yaarkshire sensibilities is outside of my remit.

I don't really consider Hull to be Yorkshire either, but that's the way they seem to draw the boundaries these days.

Normally mine too, but as I live deep in Boro territory this is an on-going war for me.

I always thought Boro was in Cleveland but I'm guessing that doesn't exist as a county now?

Boro are a north-east team to me, not a Yorkshire one. Yorkshire- in spite of its residents- is a beautiful county in many respects. In no way does Middlesbrough fit into that category. It's even more horrible than Sunderland. Or Hull.

It may not be PROPER flat cap territory, but it is most definitely within the East Riding of Yaarkshire

What is a Riding anyway? And why do they only seem to have them in Yorkshire? It's just them being OBTUSE again, isn't it?

Hull was put into Humberside with Grimsby, but the locals said they had nothing in common, apart from a huge bridge. Humberside was eventually dismantled and Hull went back into Yorkshire and Grimsby into Lincolnshire.

Present company excepted from the "in spite of its residents" comment of course

A Riding meant a third. Yorkshire was divided into thirds. Rotherham was originally in West Yorkshire, according to my better half's birth certificate, and there was never a South Riding. It was East, West and North Riding.
