Poor York, finished well clear in 2nd place but Oldham have won their two play off games 4 and 3 nil.
I see Aguiar and King didnt get a game yesterday and that York have Fagan-Walcott who was a deadline day "No.1 target and very close to signing for us" under Morris played the whole game for them in defence. |

Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

Wasn’t that when we messed the paperwork up or something like that? Oops! |

Glad Southend got through. Don't mind who wins the final. |

Forest Green on the doorstep with an unrestricted promotion budget, next season, might have been something to worry about in terms of losing possible Town players, so pleased with the outcome. |

On a nice sunny day you can get a couple of drinks in Leigh on Sea prior to getting the train into Southend for the game. We did that, probably around 10 years ago now. |

Roots Hall is much more of a proper stadium than some of the places we've been frequenting in recent years. The away end has a weird canteen-style area with picnic benches. I like it.

I last went to Roots Hall about 30 years ago. When they had a small terrace behind the goal before they built that 2 tier thing (Starmer). I remember the pitch being around waist high compared to the terrace |

I suggest make a day of it and have a few beers in Jaywick pre game, lovely town. |

Great ground that but then i prefer all the traditional one's that people call 'shitholes' .
How are you guys feeling about next season , seems like you are signing a few up who did well and Holloway isn't going wild with transfers so maybe a positive sign .
