Stockport for me. Had a great day out there last season despite us losing. Very easy to get by car, bus or train.

To be honest I'm not that bothered, isn't it lovely to watch the play-offs as an outsider without the worry?

If I had to choose it would be Carlisle, went there for the first time this season and wouldn't mind going back.

This in a nutshell, it’s so nice to watch the play offs knowing we are up.

Add to that the moronic use of pyrotechnics this year and Mark Hughes being a complete twąt, 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.


What happened to our own moron(s) who thought that throwing pyrotechnics was a good idea at Tranmere?

None of the sides in those play-offs looked as capable as ourselves. Very League Two standard generally.

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 twąt, 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!

Exactly

Bradford.Our group of 6 purchased their memorabila on the 25th anniversary and then subjected to that abuse. A horrible club.

Carlilse for me.  Purely on the basis that I think they will be most beatable out of the four next season.

Assume Bradford, Stockport and Salford will try and push on again next season and financially are possibly in a position to do so.

Also didn't really like the arrogance of the other 3 during the season.  Bradford seem to have a massive chip on their shoulder.  Felt like Stockport and some of their fans thought they could buy league two promotion.  As for Salford...well what more needs to be said.  Pointless play thing of rich individuals who will eventually get bored and leave them unsustainable.

I agree with this. I thought when it was still up in the air whether we would get automatic promotion or not that if we didn't we'd likely struggle in the play-offs. After seeing the first two legs I'd have to say we'd have progressed past all four of them, even with our injury hit squad.

Both posts are absolutely spot on. There was 3 figures worth of fans who came straight to our section that day, after we had behaved impeccably for the whole afternoon. Tossers.

Carlisle. Always a great trip on the train if its on a Saturday and a much more pleasant place to visit than the others. I have also stood in the home end for one of our games at BP but I cant remember which one due to the long journey there. Wink

It also keeps more heavyweights in league two.

Steve Riches took close up photos of every single one with his fancy camera, sent them to the club and they appeared in the local paper. There were so many that it took two days to publish them. I seem to remember that most were identifed and the older ones got banning orders. The younger ones got summoned in with their parents for a good talking to and if they refused, the parents were banned aa well.

Crap that it happened, but the club dealt with it well and the vast majority of locals were equally disgusted. As we all know, there are wånkers everywhere.

Deffo not Bradford, rather see them relegated, or all the reasons above & their tw@t of a Manager.

Nor Salford , just another plastic club, but can see them as the most likely.

Carlisle are a decent Club & so are Stockport (despite their newly found £££).

Strange scheduling of the play off games, Championship played Saturday and Sunday and the second legs are tonight and tomorrow only a 3 day gap. Division 2 played last weekend and don't play the second legs until next weekend.
