Blackpool deserved over the 90 minutes, but still an incredible season. To compete as well as we have, given the circumstances has been a superb effort. But ultimately the three above us were a) better quality in their squads and b) had more finance available.

Everything feels very measured and planned at this end and this is just year one of that so we feel fairly well placed. You'd expect the likes of Portsmouth, Charlton, Ipswich etc to get their act together but I still think we'll be competitive albeit I don't think we'll be top two competitive again.

Only a 5 week turnaround I imagine so it'll soon be pre-season!

Good effort today but the better team on the day won.

That is the problem with losing a play off final as you are weeks behind everybody else. In terms of player negotiations etc you'll probably going for different players if you get promoted. I'm sure it had a knock on effect for us this last season.

Out of the team that got us into League 1 only one player was still with us when we got promoted to the Championship, being able to get promoted out of League 2 is all well and good but you need more to take the next step
Only Harry Anderson is left from our title winning team of 2019 and he's probably leaving.

We also had to completely rebuild mid-season after winning league 2 and just about avoided relegation.

The majority of the side that we won this league with was with us in League 2 so not a hard and fast rule I’d say. We had 2 new centre halves but other than that it was the same team really.

Only got home around 30 minutes ago. We got down to Barnet in no time at all, but it probably took as long to get from Barnet to Wembley due to a traffic accident and the queuing to get in the car park.

No complaints from me, the best team on the day won even with our ridiculously fast start. A little bit more composure towards the end and one of those wayward efforts may have gone in. 2 brilliant finishes from the Blackpool player, we were behind both. A good day for a suntan!

Equally took forever to get out after the game (so abandoned the car & went for drinks for 2 hours) - still a lot of traffic at that point.

Is traffic round Wembley normally that bad. I appreciate there was an accident but there is just no infrastructure. Thankgod there was only 10k there!

Traffic around Wembley has always been bad. As a London resident I've always used public transport to get there and that was many times in my brief time time stewarding.

Best bet is to park up elsewhere on the tube network and use public transport the rest of the way. I've seen Willesden Green recommended in the past.

100% agreed, after that experience it will always be train in the future. Due to engineering works however, it was a right faff as not direct and also pricey!

Ive always parked at Cockfosters previously and gone into London that way, but for Wembley we were going to park at Stanmore, but theres no parking there this weekend.

Nevermind!

you can only do personal attacks.................classic keyboard warrior

Dont need to be hard to confront a coward
Haha you really are something special, the nastiest most spiteful poster there has ever been on this forum and you start crying because somebody gets personal with you.
I replied to your post earlier by telling you that Rotherham had never been in non league, nothing personal or nasty with my post yet you replied with ‘fuck off and don’t come back’ showing yourself up perfectly as the wanker you are.
If you don’t like personal insults then don’t be an absolute arsehole to all and sundry.
Prick.

Read and read well.
EVERY supporter on the League 2 forum who disagreed with you got insulted or their club did or their town or city or village did.
You started all this you pathetic little nonentity.
Every single insult you have ever received was in response to something you began. You even had a go at other Bolton fans.
In all the years i have been on social media you are one of the most pathetic and unintelligent i have encountered, and Donald Trump and his followers were on it.
Try to respond with something less childish than What took you so long if you have the slightest bit of working inside head content.

I think perhaps that team was the exception to the rule

Why is every thread on here turning into a slanging match? Always the same culprits!

At least now the footy season is over, hopefully certain people will be banned/matured by August!!

Congrats to Blackpool, dont think we really did ourselves justice in the final but overall it’s been a great season. Will be a big ask getting quality replacements in again. However with Appleton at the club and with a better budget back for next season (covid permitting) we should be able to establish the club further and potentially have another good one.

Death, taxes and Imps losing the play offs, bloody hell. Played 6, lost 6 - gutted
Brentford managed a play-off win after double-figures of losses.

We've never even reached a play-off final never mind won one.
