Look at the play-offs to get into The Prem. Both Luton and Coventry involved.

It's not that long ago that both were in League 2, Luton in The National League even.

Now, I'm not saying we're going to emulate them but at least it gives a bit of hope what can be achieved.

Quoted from Bigdog


As it stands..

Oldham
Southend
Chesterfield
Bury
Torquay
Scunthorpe
York
Chester
Hartlepool
Rochdale
Darlington
Halifax

Maybes

Aldershot
Southport


A bit of a case for Hereford, and before my time, Bradford Park Avenue and Gateshead..

Yet to earn their stripes in the EFL..

Wycombe (nearly there)
Fleetwood
Burton
Cheltenham
MK Dons
FGR
Stevenage
Salford
Sutton
Harrogate
Crawley

I'm probably in the camp of there's no divine right anymore, and if you're strong enough as a club, you'll return..


So what exactly do you have to do to earn your stripes? Thought it was a bit hard on Wycombe to be honest.

For me, franchise scum, Stevenage and Salford will never earn their stripes; all three are completely irrelevant and will fit we remain that way. Franchise are the scummiest of the scum…

I would move Aldershot up from maybes and add Workington to maybes

If Luton go up their ground needs £10m in renovations. How much would it cost us if we were to emulate?

Any club that wasn't in the 1888/89 Football League isn't proper in my book.
