Excellent job by Stockport to set up the perfect Saturday for people who love permutations.

Us - Can finish as high as 3rd and as low as 5th

Stockport - Can finish as high as 3rd and as low as 7th

Bradford - Can finish as high as 3rd and as low as 7th

Stevenage - Can finish as high as 4th and as low as 8th

Luton - Can finish as high as 4th and as low as 8th

Plymouth - Can finish as high as 6th and as low as 8th

If we win the 2nd leg of the play offs any fan attempting to enter the pitch after the game needs setting fire to.

And any player drinking beer in the stands needs throwing down the stairs from WSU all the way to the dug outs.

agreed, so so tinpot 

The Duke of Welly is advertising coaches to Wembley, setting off at 8am even though KO time hasn't been announced !!

To be fair, they do say "IF " & sorting transport after the semis is rushed but it does seem a bit like tempting fate.

Absolutely mental. 

Remember the old story of Chris Kamara putting the Blackpool Adverts for Wembley coaches and ticket arrangements on the dressing room wall before Bradfords 2nd leg at Bloomfield in which they were 2-0 down.

Bradford won 3-2 and Big Sam got sacked.

Though there was the Sheff Wed pub that put up an ad about coaches to wembley then they lost the first leg 4-0 

Everyone took the piss, then they won the second leg 5-1 and went through on penalties 

And got promoted

Yeah I dont like that.

8am seems late, feel theres a high chance of a 12.30/1pm ko for this final.

The Market in Farnworth are doing the same.

Stocks and t'other doing the same... booking a refundable hotel is one thing

tbf to them, getting a load of coaches within a week and getting them filled is a task, not to mention if we play a local team, they'll be a scramble for the same coaches 

no big deal

100% agree on this. But, we didn't even win that game that night, which just made it all the more tin pot than it already would have been. It was embarrassing that.

2 cheeks of the same arse.

I'm never going to Wembley on a coach again. Was an absolute fucking farce last time, and it was an official club one. Took an absolute fucking age to get there, then the driver got lost and drove all the way round the stadium 3 times. No toilet on the coach, and loads of folk dying for a piss. Ended up being a bit of a passenger mutiny and we forced him to pull into some random carpark that had a portaloo in it. Only got in the stadium 10 minutes before kick off, even though we'd set off at half fucking 6. Nearly 10 fucking hours. Combined with the match, it nearly put my son off football for life.

Have a sneaky feeling that either Stockport or Bradford will fall out of the play offs on saturday.

Only way that happens is if we lose to Luton (The fearful/mighty Luton 😂) 

Seems like you’re over(under)-thinking it 😉

Yeh no issue at all.

We fuck up, there’ll be bigger embarrassments and recriminations to face than some ribbing over booking coaches.

Fair play for being organised and finding ways to maximise our attendance,

A week is a short turnover to get it sorted.

Its not cocky, it’s practical.

Forward/positive thinking from all involved 👏

Booked hotel and train feeling very confident 😊

People staying in their seats wouldn't have stopped us getting beat by Oxford. And then the following season was about as grim as it gets.

No problem with fans enjoying the good moments when they come.

Ah didn't think about that.     Forget my sneaky feelings,  always shit anyway

Jesus, that sounds grim.

Only time I did it was with my dad when I was younger and while the trip dragged, as all coach journeys do, were there and back with no issues like that.

Our hotel booked, and then, hopefully, another 4,000 mile round trip!

Only done it once myself.  Watford play off final.  No shenanigans like yours but utterly fu*cking miserable coming back.  I just wanted to be in a darkened room alone.

Not going
