Carlisle for me. Always a great weekend away with family up that end of the country.

Carlisle. Most likely to finish below us.

Never forgiven Bradford for their fans throwing coins at us after the 25th anniversary of the fire, and Salford are horrendous.

Stockport would be okay but they’ve got the finances to compete, so prefer them to miss out too.

Pretty much my thoughts on the matter as well.

Bradford certainly have more than their fair share of idiots. The aforementioned incident being one that sticks in my mind, then the utterly classless way they behaved in the lead up to, during, and after the game a couple of weeks ago.

Carlisle seem a decent bunch and have never had any problem with them, so I'm rooting for them.

I think after last night, Stockport’s only hope will be if Wooton, Madden and Collar are fit enough to return. It pains me to say it but Salford are a decent team - very solid at the back with a couple of creative players up front.

Come on Carlisle!!!

After their arrogance when they beat us, Bradford can wallow in the shadow of Wrexham next season....

That'll upset their "we used to be premier league" fans  Grin

The Ref in this Bradford Carlisle match is such a homer.

I’m torn, a club with support the size of Bradford should never be in L2. On the other hand, given the percentage that are absolute tools, it should be compulsory that they are in the National League North where they can do less damage. It’s a real quandary?

A record fourth tier playoff semi-final crowd of 20,575 witnessed Bradfords narrow victory over Carlisle, compare that with the paltry 3,923 who attended Salford v Stockport, this after Stockport had been limited to just over 600 tickets for the game.

I was going to suggest that if they get promoted we should give them the same match day allocation. But then I remembered they’ll only need about 3.

Salfords capacity is 5100. National League North support at best.
I hope Stockport hammer them in the second leg.

Nobody seems to harbour the same dislike for Fleetwood as Salford. Two teams with much larger neighbours, and thus a very small fanbase. Yet this rarely gets mentioned.

Never forgiven Bradford for their fans throwing coins at us after the 25th anniversary of the fire, and Salford are horrendous.



The way some of the Bradford fans behaved up there that day was shameful. We'd gone there and been respectful, fully played our part in the day and they reacted like that at the end. I know it was a relatively small (but not insignificant) number and the majority of their fans were also disgusted but it left a bad taste in my mouth that has lingered ever since.

Add to that the moronic use of pyrotechnics this year and Mark Hughes being a complete twàt, both in terms of what he said after our penultimate game of the season and in general then I really want to see them fail.

Salford are a joke so it's between Carlisle and Stockport for me and I'm leaning towards Stockport. I certainly won't lose any sleep over which of them makes it though!
