    Hopefully a few posters amongst this lot to try and liven up this section a bit for next season.

    Yep, and Panja.

    Wonder if they’ve remembered they now get to play in the Bristol Street Motors trophy and start the FA Cup in Round 1. Glorious.

    And might just be one league above Solihull moors!

    Mind you better not say too much as we'll probably be struggling next season.

    Here's hoping we can get rid of ex Premier League failures Bolton & hope Donny come back up & then League 1 has other than Birmingham an even look about it , shame Plymouth never came down to keep Exeter company but hey ho , I kind of hope Birmingham suffer for a few years , i hate Yanks , stick to Baseball or Soccer rather than buying Football teams !

    Think I’d prefer Crawley to come up but can’t really see past MK sadly.

    Got a feeling it will be Doncaster who win the league 2 playoffs. Been in great form the last few months.

    First time posting here as a fully paid up member of league one. Hoping to see a clear out of the dross we’ve just witnessed this season.

    So who should we be looking to buy from this league next season? I know of a few Peterborough players that might be of interest to Birmingham City but let’s wait to see who comes in as manager of TM, don’t return.

    I’d start with:

    Rarmani Edmonds-Green
    Tayo Edun
    Harry Isted
    Conor McGrandles
    Lucas Ness
    Tennai Watson

    Just changed my bookmark to the League one section, exciting times!!!

    Time to dust down the old ground/pub notebook (yes I did genuinely have one of these before the interweb!!) and look up some of the different grounds this year, doubt many of the pubs I used to frequent are still going and I’m guessing a lot of the grounds will look different. I’m not “happy” to have been relegated, but I’m also not overly upset, it’ll make a nice change having spent the last 15 years going to the same 25 grounds every year.

    Jonson Clarke-Harris is on a free but may be off to Hearts for Europa League football if they sell Laurence Shankland & team up with ex Posh players Frankie Kent & Jorge Grant .

    Josh Knight also on a free , QPR may reignite their interest again after a £300k deal fell through last window .

    Jeandro Fuchs out of contract & also ex Villa GK Jed Steer though I hope we resign him & get rid of the other 3 we have .

    Welcome anyway , I hope we're still here next season , I loathe get battered in the Championship & being bottom 3 all season , much rather top 8 in League 1 .

    I am going to be honest with u, enjoyed it in division one,, glad we came up this year, but enjoyed seeing some different teams, Stadiums and also winning more games, think u will be back to the champ next season or the season afterwards, u will also be the biggest club in the division, so teams will see u as there big game, good luck next season, and enjoy it.

    Think we might be sniffing around a few of your players tbh. If TM, don’t comeback I’d even take Darren Ferguson, because the one thing I respect about him is his ability to win promotion with you guys.

    How much for Ronnie Edwards? Why hasn’t Josh Knight, played more?

    Fergie will probably take over from Fry when or if he dies at his desk in the D.O.F. roll .

    Ronnie Edwards enters last 12 months of his contract in the summer but reckon he'll see out & go on a free end of that & Posh / Barnet still get 50/50 split of tribunal money .

    Josh Knight is one of Posh's highest earners , he's played all season & along with JCH , Fuchs we can pay 6 younger players for the same wages as those 3 .

    You very well might, but that’s all you’ll be doing.

    If you can get out of this league within 2 years it’s not so bad, it gets mighty grim after that.

    Some decent away days, but be warned there are a handful of grounds that won’t serve beer as the “concourse” area has a view of the pitch.

    If you come down our way and it works out, I’ll buy you a lager.

    100% Bob, always enjoyed our days out at the Valley. Holds a bit of sentimental value for me too, I’ll definitely be there next year :thumb

    When you see it written like this it makes you realise how truly stupid that law is.

    Yeah, it’s barmy.

    Cheltenham were one of them but they’re gone now. Off the top of my head there’s still Stevenage, Exeter and Northampton, Lincoln (?)

    Northampton was a weird one as they had a little Carlsberg van just before the turnstiles before the game where you could buy bottles of beer but at half time they were closed and no beer being served.
