Football League 15/16

A draw will do 1-1

I missed the equaliser. I still think the draw is the best result of the three for Brighton.

Harder route, but leaves more doors open

Burnley left it late but they've kept it interesting.

Not a good night for Bradford yesterday as they lost 1-0 to Coventry, with Barnsley winning that means the gap to 7th place has shrunk by 2pts.

Next up on Saturday is against Walsall, who are meant to be unformidable on their travels. Bradford sure don't do things the easy way.

After spending a good deal of the season in the top 2 or 3, Gillingham now drop out of the play off places after a terrible run of results.

The 'target' this season may have been to stay up, but given where they were they have to be disappointed if they don't end up in the top 6.

Goal difference separates the top three in the Championship.

Team who finishes third is going to be way ahead of fourth.

York's exit from the League is now confirmed.

Bradford's attacking dominance in recent weeks is finally paying dividends by thrashing Walsall 4-0, Big Jim Hanson bagging a hat-trick too

5pts clear of 7th with 2 games to go in 5th place, though 2nd place is now mathmetically out of reach. 3rd and 4th place is still on for a home 2nd leg with a point behind Millwall and Walsall.

Thanks to Middlesbrough slipping up, Brighton get a get out of jail free card tomorrow if they lose or draw. It would come down to next week at Middlesbrough.

Win and Brighton just need a draw for the Premier League. Almost can touch it. Two games, 4 points is all that needed.

Make it happen.

Boro keeper Dimi Konstantopolous nearly ran over my foot in Asda car park the other day.

Bradford securing a place in the playoffs with one league game to after reccording a 1-0 win against Southend.

6th place is up for grabs (currently occupied by Barnsley), but 7th place Scunthorpe are level on points and and 8th place Gillingham two points off. Remarkable stuff from Scunthorpe to have overcome a 10pt deficit in just 5 games. They probably have the "easier" game against Sheffield United, whilst Barnsley travel to Wigan and Gillingham host Millwall.

Regardless of what happens in the next 120 minutes of our regular season, if Knockaert is still at Brighton next year I would be very surprised. Looks a cut above Championship level.

As I type Derby finally remind us they are still in the game

[budgetmeansbudget]

1-0 Derby.

Brighton need to win at Boro right now, might be easier than trying to hold out for a draw anyway.

With his trolley?
