Swindon ( 2 ) Charlton Athletic ( 1 )
Huddersfield Town ( 0 ) Millwall ( 0 )

I think Millwall might have the upper hand now, Town's record away this season has been pretty poor...having said that, a score draw would be enough !

a score draw would still take it to penalties, i'm fairly confident now our home record is the best in the league. I think we're looking at a SE London trip to wembley.
Things I am owed because they're too tight to pay up:

Colossus: One House

Costa: One Lunch

Oh and add in

Colossus: one photo and one letter from his "attorney".

2 clear penalties not given, this tie should have been all over.

No away goals rule in the playoffs, otherwise Cardiff would have lost their tie.

No commiserations required...Town just weren't good enough.
My older brother believes that Huddersfield don't really want to be promoted.....the extra expenses that come with moving up a division might have a negative impact on the club's financial future.
Being competitive in Division 1 with 14000 home crowds keeps things rolling on.
That's my older brothers theory anyway.
They looked pretty insipid in their games against Millwall

Maybe on their way to knock off England? :wink:

Anyway, just watched the Millwall v Huddersfield game. Never seen more blind hoofing of the ball in a long time. Is that normal standard for this league? Desperation of defenders to be commended though but as for overall footballing skills, A-League may not be so far behind after all.

:P

You're kidding yourself. If you want to compare with the A-league I suggest you try the blue square north/south.
The answer is 42. So now what's the question?
