The League 2 Promotion thread

We didn't bottle it in the semis though

Neither did we, we were lucky to still be in the tie.

That said, we're due another crack at the playoffs even if of the teams currently occupying them we've played 8 lost 7 drawn 1.

Come on boys, don’t choke, again.

It’s in your hands!

 

[Posh Harry]

Imagine laying on said team for the title....

Thinking I should have cashed out early.

I did. Cashed out my £5 for 13p

 

[AdamStag]

So we’ve got a 6,500 sell out today.

Only at Mansfield

What's the official capacity at Field Mill?

 

[AdamStag]

What's the official capacity at Field Mill?

9200

But we’ve got to hold back 10pc apparently and Stevenage, chasing the playoffs have sold a whopping 145.

It’s where you got it right with that little small stand of 200 or so for games like this.

Curious how your “boycott” ended with a couple wins. Almost like it’s just a fickle fan base

Are you still hurting from that defeat.

 

[Reginald Fodstain]

Are you still hurting from that defeat.

That was one of the best away days in recent years, regardless of the score. So I can't speak for him, but I'm guessing no...

Id guess a little, as he seems to be quick to jump on any Oldham posts.

No. It was a poor result but not bitter.

Just laughable that your fan base is trying to pass off being fickle as a boycott.

Windy as anything here today. Won't be much football played but still more than on the Wirral..

ALL RESULTS GOING OUR WAY

ALL RESULTS GOING OUR WAY

Hopefully not on Tuesday night.

ALL RESULTS GOING OUR WAY

You’re a Tranmere fan? Suppose you’ll need a new club next year.

 

[Luke Imp]

Off the back of today's result, this suddenly feels a lot bigger than it was because there's clarity to some permutations.

I said two or three weeks ago that it was looking as though MK, Mansfield and Tranmere could all have to win on the final day.

 

[The Jovial Forester]

It was all looking so good until about twenty minutes ago. Stupid game.

 

[UTS]

Avoid defeat at Tranmere or at home to Port Vale and we are up.

 

[Tranmerewhite]

Charlie Kirk is off the Tranmere black list, top lad.

 

[Plumbob]

Avoid defeat at Tranmere or at home to Port Vale and we are up.

Fully deserved for the Brazil of the north and debts to match the nation..

 

[RLC]

Unbelievable set of results for us. I did not remotely think that was possible.

Tuesday night looks quite tasty.....

 

[Mark kavanagh]

As a mark of apology over todays postponed game bury can have the buckets we bought to move the water... I've heard they will be useful

 

[Richard Cranium]

We've given up

 

[UTS]

In a weird way, the Tranmere game gets even bigger after it was postponed today. Tuesday is simply massive for both sides!

Wouldn’t have been able to make it today but could do on a Tuesday if I manage to get myself a spare ticket.

 

[wangle]

Nice of us to do our bit to try and keep the play off chase interesting.

Not exactly the great form you'd like to finish the season with. However, I'll happily have our bad patch of form for the season after gaining promotion!

 

[dedwardp]

We've had it now - Oldham no longer have anything to play for on Tuesday night to let Newport take pole position, and Forest Green's late capitulation rules out the top three for them when at 3-2 up the trip there for Exeter was looking extremely difficult.

Decent performance today, just a shame they've been so few and far between since Christmas.

 

[Back in the DHSS]

The way results have gone today I’m even more gutted now that we only picked up 1 point over Easter.

 

[denzel ecfc]

Did Lincoln bother today? Disappointing.

Congratulations on Newport reaching the play offs.

My brother said we were the better side so I think we did try, yes.

Don't blame us if you don't get enough points.

Doesn't sound like we played particularly well or work the Newport keeper anywhere enough, but they do have a fantastic home record!

Anyway Newport have to win against Oldham and have the extra game, tiredness could come. In. You've still got a good chance for playoffs.

 

[Tranmerewhite]

Newport’s pitch is a leveller. It’s impossible to play good football.
