I know it's not League Two but I watched the Leeds v Derby game earlier.....cracking game.

And the Leeds fans song mocking Frank Lampard has well and truly come back to bite them on the bottom.

It was a great game to watch - a great advert for the Championship - both teams going full at it to win the match - brilliant to watch as a neutral

Amazing atmosphere from both fans - especially the Derby lot at the end

The game had the lot - some decent goals - tackles flying in - red cards and a penalty - brilliant stuff - hope for more of the same in the final

Leeds had not conceded more than 2 goals at home all season.  In less than 15 mins last night, they conceded 3 goals.  Not good enough to reach the final.

I know 2 Leeds fans who went last night and they will be shocked after not going up automatically.  The first team in the Championship to be top at Xmas and not go up for a long time.  And the first team ever in the Championship playoffs to win away and then not make the final.

I'd take top end of league 2 hovering around the play offss for the next few years... Times have changed, look in League one, we'd struggle massively to compete. Money talks and as it stands so many clubs around and above us have slowly grown with the increase and we've just stood still.

I noticed Bogle wasn't in the Portsmouth squad last night, is he injured again?

was thinking the same myself - they looked pretty flat up top in what was a rather scrappy game

I was wondering if he'd get on to change the game but then saw he wasn't on the bench so can only assume an injury as he's not been too bad for Pompey since he signed

Funny how every time I heard the name Tom Naylor mentioned it passed me by initially but then I remember we had him on loan a few years back

If Charlton get through it'll be a repeat of the play-off for promotion to The Prem in 1998, the day after we beat Northampton.

Super Clive had a particularly good game that day if I remember correctly.
