The vast majority of Liverpool fans weren't born within 100 miles of Anfield. That's the point.

What a season. The best thing was watching those salty tears fall from the LDF eyes Back of the net.

Never mind. Ah well

@Coltrane - only one goal in it. Are you going to blow the second leg? sunderland haven't lost many so it'll be tough. I still think Charlton will go up in the play off final. They're about to kick off at Doncaster now.

Having been relegated to League 2 at the end of the season, we'll be happy to host Salford City Given their catchment area, I'd not be surprised if they progress again and if they invest in making that stadium bigger and better, they could end up at Championship level quite easily. They have a 5000 capacity ground, people with connections to football in charge and momentum. I don't really get the hate with them though, they're just another club. There are plenty of teams who've bought themselves a league place over the years. Fleetwood Town being one. It's a little more difficult to just buy success in the lower divisions as EFL rules are a bit different to those affecting the top flight but who can blame any club for using a financial advantage? Football's about money. I cancelled my Sky Sports sub last season but just bought myself a Now TV day-pass so form here on in, it's wall to wall football with Doncaster vs Charlton. I predict Charlton to win and take a 1 or 2 goal lead back to the Valley. Sunderland go to Fratton Park with a one goal lead. I expect Charlton to go up - they've got amazing form and with Lyle Tylor up front and Bilek in midfield (along with Cullen), they've got a very good side. Oh yeah, Liverpool and Man City. I have a weird feeling that Liverpool are going to do it. Given what happened in mid-week, they seem to have luck on their side. It would be typical for a side like Brighton to hold City to a draw.

What a fluke That was special. Barcelona went into that as if they'd won already. They got steamrolled. Liverpool Vs Spurs final?

Fucking Sunderland lost meaning we've been relegated. Scunthorpe's second goal today was a disgrace. We obviously deserved to go down but it hurts League 2 again.

Fell out with our top scorer and dropped him. He also had total control over the club due to the previous chairman. New chairman comes in who is a fan and there's rumours that he just didn't like Derek Adams. He lost fan support too. It's a last resort to save League 1 status. Adams wasn't popular with anyone really. A bit of a Steve Evans character. Other managers didn't like him either. He fell out with Paul Cooke, Gareth Ainsworth and Chris Powell. They can't all be wrong.

He stood still when the ball came back off the bar and the Suarez goal where him and Matip were caught napping. Ramos has done a decent job on Messi over the years. Enjoy the rest of your season

I think with Premier League teams over the past two or three years, we've seen the hubris of Premier League teams (best league in the World!) reach hamartia. Man City up for the inevitable quadruple - nope. Liverpool will win it now that PSG and Real Madrid are out?!???!!!! - nope. Spurs could feasibly reach the final but even if they did, Barcelona would annihilate them as Spurs are knackered. It's Barcelona's to lose now. Messi et al made Van Dijk look very ordinary yesterday and Salah spent most of the first half running into walls. Mane didn't score when he should have and the Scottish lad at left back couldn't cross a number on a lottery ticket. Milner had chance after chance and kept passing it to the keeper. I wouldn't be surprised if Liverpool and Klopp win nothing again. The commentators were hyping up an Anfield crowd under the lights. These guys regularly go to Real Madrid and win, to Althletico Madrid and win so they won't be intimidated. 2nd place Klopp strikes again.

We had the play offs nailed on at the start of the season I only know one Peterborough fan (other than @rgraves who doesn't post much in this thread) and the only time he pops into work to see me is when Peterborough have beaten Plymouth Argyle. On that basis, 100% of them are weird.

I thought Doncaster were confirmed a play off spot. Peterborough might sneak in. Doncaster have the toughest fixture. 5.30pm kick offs

I fancy a Charlton vs Pompey final. Sunderland haven't ended the season well and Doncaster are too inconsistent to play well twice. I have a feeling Charlton will win the play offs. Really not looking forward to Saturday now that Sunderland visit Southend with nothing to play for. They'll likely rest their best players and Wimbledon travel to already relegated Bradford. We also need to win or draw. I don't think we'll win so it's up to Sunderland winning and us not losing.

I honestly think we'll be relegated. We need to win so that means scoring. I can't see it.

I woke up to the news that we've sacked our manager has left the club by mutual consent. We have one game left, a must win game that depends on another result going our way to survive relegation. It's weird timing but I think the Chairman is basically getting someone in pre-Summer to sort the squad out. I have no idea who I'd want here and I think this should have happened four or five matches ago. The previous Chairman made the idiotic decision to give Derek Adams a 5 year contract and allow him to manage the team and also act as Director of Football and also have a say in the running of the club; Adams apparently wanted that but nobody can do all that at a professional team. His tactics were negative too and he's fallen out with players (namely our top scorer who he dropped from the last two games due to personal reasons). I'm relieved as the atmosphere at the club is becoming toxic. Just for context, since we went in 0-1 up at half time against Gillingham, we've let in 11 goals with just 1 goal in reply (an own goal too) in two and a half matches and we've lost 5 in a row. We've gone from 5 points off the bottom four to being in the bottom four. It's not really a surprise.
