It's actually probably better to watch! For a start you won't see crap like PNE and Burnley!

That's pretty funny! I actually don't dislike Leeds and think they will come back stronger. They should bounce straight back but it won't be easy as teams will raise their game. Leeds aren't too big for this division though, we found that out when we got relegated for the 1st time nearly 30 years ago! Forest have struggled too while Wednesday and City made hard work of promotion.

Yeah I don't mind Leeds either. Your enemy's enemy is your friend and all that.

COME ON LIVERPOOL - STUFF THEM TOMORROW!!!!! I can't quite believe what Moronho said about Ronaldo.

Couple of York City legends there... Actually my dad taught Marco Gabbiadini French. A Leeds-York derby match could be only a league away if York get through the conference play-offs!

Well dodgy. Bates takes the club into bankruptcy and then takes back over with a new consortium...

I wouldn't trust him with my piggy bank.

Very clever though. Now they wont get 10 points deducted next season. Bates is a crook though. Who are Leeds going to go for next? Venables is good at fiddling.

Very dodgy, but if the rules are that way, it makes sense. In fact I believe it's been done before (The tactically going into administration when already down, not the re-acquiring of the club.)

I've heard that El Tel will return as manager with Emperor Nero as chairman and Robert Maxwell handling the accounts.

Swansea 3 Blackpool 6

We've got Oldham in the play-offs who we took 4 points off in the league and have been on a poor run. Even though we've won 7 on the trot i think we'll have to be at our best to get to Wembley.
