The league 2 run in

I wouldn't be so sure Jimmy, about America.  Atlanta get 45k crowds for their games, which is essentially Championship level football when you average out the talent level in a team, and it's growing at Youth level quite rapidly.  A lot of first and second generation Hispanic children from families that now call themselves American has added to that and the World Cup in 2026 is being hyped quite a bit.  The USA National team has just broken ground on a near half billion dollar HQ near me (when it is fully completed) and a lot of the newer MLS teams are building football grounds in the 20k-40k range and filling them.

Franchise on the other hand, are a waste of space.

MK were dreadful.

For a moment I even entertained the idea that we would have beaten them. Then I remembered just how bad we have been.

I'm pleased for Crawley, almost entirely down to the fact that Steve Hale is on the coaching staff. BUT, how sickening was it to see so many players and staff with a recent STFC link involved in a play off game

I will say well done Crawley for smashing the fake dons at their place yesterday 5-1, thats absolutely brilliant considering they were favourites to go down pre season.

It didnt work for Lindsey here but hes obviously got the formula right there.

Take your 3,000 fans to Wembley to face Crewe for a nice day out in front of possibly the lowest ever EFL play off attendance.

I still can't believe we smashed them 6-0 earlier in the season.

Also MKD only had 8,400 home fans in attendance for a play off thats pathetic.

There's not a club I'd like to see rot more than Milton Keynes FC. Maybe some of their locals have values.

We can certainly agree on that on MG, ignore our rivalries and we can combine our mutual hatred of that club stealing club.

As for MK people having values? highly doubtful as they will go if theres a big team in town.

 the 3000 or so mentioned above could be enjoying a level of football currently out of our reach .  if next season goes how many fear, we may not be seeing them again for some time .

Indeed, I fully expect us to be worse next season than last if Gunning is the manager to start the season.
Non league is a real possibility, especially if Morecambe can sort themselves out.

That is indeed possible, its good to have forward thinking owners that will invest a little and get a team with spirit, rather than broken talented individuals thats cannot play as a team. Irrelivant of crowd size.
