Plymouth vs Leeds sounds more appealing to be honest!

Hartlepool is the only team in our league that I would say is too far

I would prefer to go up North but cant afford all the travel expenses.

Plymouth V Leeds sounded like a good fixture so thought I'd head down tomorrow about 11ish, watch all the scores in the pub etc. and then go to the game as the kcik off is around 5 ish I think.

I think its set in stone for reading to Win that league and most probably Sheff Utd (although could change) to also take 2nd place.

I have a sneaky feeling wolves or Palace are in with a shout too.

As for second teams, I couldnt honestly see myself supporting anyone else however if I had to would probably be the likes of Exeter (family etc.)

No way in the world that it takes that long, unless you are driving a steam roller or something equally as slow! I have done Edinburgh to Wantage in around 6 hours and that is almost 400 miles. You have to speed a little to achieve that however and not stop! I have done the journey 3 times, in a Nova GTE, a Volvo T5 Type R (Think that's what its called - Big powerful estate car) and a Clio 172. Clio was most fun!

Just about to leave for Hartlepool in the ST170. If you see a black one and the driver is wearing the away shirt, that'll be me!

thats one of the problems with a small-engined turbo'd car, sitting at 80/90/100 on the motorway, you can literally see the fuel needle going down, as it sitting just at the wrong point in the rev range. £25 worth of petrol for hemel hempstead and back last monday...
