Its getting tight in 2 3 4 places, and Boston are in the play off zone, just.  I'm rooting for Boston, as it might be Boston v Scunny.

And think before Xmas they were where Tamworth are. Brutal game footy.

Boston are absolutely flying! Only lost once in their last 13 games and have won 7 of them. Their last 5 games, they've won 4 and drawn 1. Might have hit form a little too early but if they carry it on they'll be looking good for the play offs. If they got Scunny in the play offs I'd go watch and root for them.

Based on recent form for the rest of the season (before tonights results), it's Scunny v Boston in the play off Quarter Final. Both league games have been a draw with Boston hitting the post in the last minute of their home fixture against them. Scunny definitely won't want Boston in the play-offs.

Scunny have most their team out of contract at the end of the season . The high earners will not have their contracts renewed at a guess ? I’m also guessing those players know that and have stopped giving 100% . ? If they go up they’re gonna struggle, if they stay in that league they’ll do ok . Bit like us regarding league 2 and the NL .

There is a huge advantage finishing 2nd or 3rd as it gives you only 2 games to play in the playoffs and they are guaranteed to both be at home if you finish 2nd

Anyone fancy doing this for League Two? I’m fairly certain that extrapolating the last 10 keeps us up, but last 6 sees us down.

Edit: can’t be ársed doing the full table but this is indeed correct.

Interestingly, both Darlington & Southport were League clubs at one time and now struggling to stay in this league, funny old game as Greavise would have said.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

That didn’t help Wrexham and the team finishing third much good in 2022 if I remember correctly 😎

The play offs are a bit of a lottery and he single game fixtures make an upset more likely that a two game fixture in many ways. So finishing second is by no means a guarantee of going up. Anything can happen.

Darlingtons demise is horrific.

I seem to remember them trying to sign the likes of gascoigne and Asprilla in the early 2000s. Building a massive new stadium and eventually being wound up as a club.

They werent allowed to re-enter the league as a continuation as Darlington FC .....but didnt that change recently ?

no matter how excrement its been at BP for 2 decades at least we arent Darlington.....
