Personally, i can't see Rotherham getting relegated. Depending on how long the good run can continue in the League they could make a serious push for the play offs.

Bournemouth have had a good start too and look promising to avoid relegation but I cant see Luton Town avoiding the drop.

Im more than happy with the progress we have been making and if we can maintain current form and keep hold of Robins and keep hold of Richie then i can see us reaching the play-offs without much effort.

Bring on Leeds tonight.

im intreasted in L2 More so this season, Last season was looking over MK Dons results, tho im not a fan of the whole wimbledon/mk dons transition theyre Local to me, and a team with ambition, though im yet to go watch a game.

But like Rotherham Luton have also plumitted down the leagues of late and Luton are the best team in the County of Bedfordshire, how hew we lack football teams

not sure who will go down. I feel Rotherham wont, Luton might but there in quite good form, but the life of Luton nothings ever smooth lol...

also dont rule out other teams who arent deducyed points yet getting deductions, unfortunatly im unaware of the financial states of other L2 clubs at the moment.

Relegation Stat

In 1961/62, the A-team of Dukla Tábor were relegated from the second to the third level, but saw their place saved by the B-team, who went in the opposite direction.

ill try find more relegation stats..or lack

Some intreasting stats I found

EP Sétif's relegation was all the more shocking because they went on to win the African Champions' Cup (for which they had qualified as Algerian champions 1986/87) at the end of 1988, becoming continental champions as a second division club!

Manchester City's relegation was all the weirder because they scored more goals in 1937/38 than any other English first division club and had a positive goal difference.

wow at that table O_O

Ajax won the Dutch Cup in 
1970 after having lost in the round of 16 to AZ '67.
Since by that stage only 14 teams actually were in the competition, one
of the 7 defeated teams was drawn as lucky losers into the quarterfinal. 

Ajax won that draw and then the Cup. The rule was abolished.


some god damn awful teams?

In all honesty, i don't think the relegation battle at the end of the season will have more than one team that started on minus points involved, teams like Grimsby and Barnet for example, still on low points and close too being over taken by us. Not sure if i can see Luton staying up tbh, 30 points is a mammoth task, and will have put a massive downer on the whole club and i think that's shown somewhat in their start too the season, but with the start they've had i just can't see it, unless other clubs have a really bad streak.

The next few games for us i think are gonna be important ones, just like against Luton, a win against Bournemouth makes a world of difference, and with having Barnet at home next week the next few games could push us well up the league.

Why do girls insist on saying 'We won them' or 'we are going to win them' etc...THAT IS JUST WRONG. Please stop.
