Paul Buckle's doing the business at Luton this evening.

Luton, Wrexham, Mansfield, York - I wouldn't like to say who'll go up from them but needless to say that Wrexham (98 points) fans won't be as confident than Luton's (81 points) at this moment.

Cardiff walked off at half time looking like a beaten team, if they take that attitude in the 2nd half the Hammers will have it won before the second leg, if they haven't already.

Yep, Cardiff have been shit.

They don't seem to do pressure very well.  Unless they manage to turn it around, it'll be the third consecutive year they've missed out in the play offs.

Can't stand Cardiff as 1) they're Welsh and 2) they always seem to play at Wembley (and lose mind)

As mentioned in an earlier post I think Blackpool will go up in a final against West Ham! You heard it here first folks!!!

Good point, I'll cover myself by saying you heard Blackpool beating West Ham in the Play Off final here first, rather than Blackpool being my pick for the championship  Cheesy

Think you might be right there. No idea why, but just can't see Blackpool getting through.

It wouldn't be the same without Cardiff choking in the play offs. Cheesy

Good job Cardiff sacked Dave Jones for bottling the play offs two years in a row. This new bloke has really turned things around. Heehaw!

I don't think that you can really blame Cardiff for wanting to explore different options can you? They did it at the right time etc. It's not like Middlesbrough who canned Southgate when they were in a competitive position for Gordon Strachan who thus turned them in to mediocrity.

I suppose not but if i was Jones i would be pretty peeved. Finished top 6 two years in a row and still get sacked. How harsh is that!

Cardiff obviously seem to think they have a god given right to be playing top division football even though they haven't been up there for donkey's years. They have a big cunt element amongst their fans too so I find it pretty amusing.

It's the money element. They are in shit loads of debt having spent bucket loads in the past 10 years trying to get up the leagues. They really need to go up as soon as they can. It's quite amusing when you have teams like Blackpool and Reading who in recent years haven't been big spenders but have gone up.

Good to hear money doesn't always buy success

Jones would of known his job was to get promoted not keep getting to the play offs and getting beat.
