Play offs
« on May 05, 2014, 11:36:44 am by Dare to dream! »
Who you going for?

I've gone for QPR, PNE and Southend.

56/1 with Bet365

I think QPR with the quality they have got will perform in these big games

I don't mind who wins League Two. Never been to Burton or Fleetwood's ground; York is a local derby; and I have a soft spot for Southend due to Dave Penney.

League One I would say PNE have the best squad, so if we want to finish as high as possible then we should be wanting rid of them? Hoping Rotherham stay down for the English El Classico. Not fussed about Orient & Peterborough.

Be good to see Brighton in the Premiership for historical reasons.

From the championship I'd prefer Derby or Wigan, they seem to play the best football of the teams in there.

Preston from L1 as I think they would be the biggest threat next year.

York from L2 for the away day next year. Wouldn't begrudge Southend for the DP factor though.

I'm backing either of Wigan or QPR - that way it's likey there'll be one less club on parachute payments when we go back there in 2015/16.

Southend was a great night out some years back. The game we beat them and they went up as champions

League 1 I'd like to see Orient promoted.

Coming from Leytonstone I'd love to be able to watch my two teams play each other again, but I think after all these years The Os deserve promotion. They did lead the division for most of the season too.

What I've seen of the League One play-offs so far suggests that we will need to adopt an attacking approach if we're going to succeed at that level next season.

I too liked the look of Leyton Orient. I've always rated Russell Slade as a manager and it would be interesting to see how he'd do in the Championship.

Only watched the second half so far of the Orient/Peterboro game. I'd be very disappointed if we couldn't better what I'm seeing next season. Terrible passing.

Peterborough's right back Mark Little looks a good player and ive just searched and he is out of contract this season. I think he could be a genuine target for us

  Opinions are funny things...I watched Little last night and thought he was terribly inconsistent,one minute he was in the right place and covered well but then all over the place..cant head a ball for peanuts and cant pass straight either,even little lay offs.....I wouldn't want him thanks....

The trouble with Mark Little is he tends to mangle things.

Little was a threat going forward. He's a typical modern fullback though, a bit like Kyle Walker, can't defend, technically moderate but quick and has an unbelievable engine.

The way P'borough play means their fullbacks are out of position more than they are in it!

I was impressed with the York right back and the Fleetwood left back in that game. Wasn't a great game due to the conditions but both seemed comfortable on the ball and useful in defence.

I was impressed with Baldwin the Peterborough centre back. But then again he did cost half a million!

Well to balance that one dare dream he headed a suicidal ball from right back to the centre of his own box that led to Orients opener...and effectively put them on the road to defeat....

Such is life in League One! We've been spoilt in the last few years.

I hope that some of your previous negative predictions are as close to the mark Jim.  :scarf: ;)
