Shrewsbury or Rotherham for me as it will be a new ground

Shrewsbury win there was a nice little earner for me. Shocking match though which included two of the worst, most limited big man strikers I can remember seeing. Will watch these play off games with interest. Hopefully Shrewsbury go up they were miles ahead of the other 3 teams on points.

Barring a spectacular collapse in the last 25 mins, it looks as if Shrewsbury will be heading into the League 1 Play Off Final.

Wouldn't mind that as an away day next season

off to Wembley on Monday to cheer on the Grecians. Coventry expected to turn out in numbers. will most likely remind me of when we out numbered Port Vale

I'm from Coventry, excitement building in the city with 34,500 tickets sold at the minute. Not quite as many as they sold for the JPT final last season, think over 41,000 went.

There is a big festival on in Cov this weekend for the BBC that might be having an affect on the numbers.

Good luck to Shrewsbury in today's play-off final, it would be nice to see them back at Championship level again.

TheJacko2000 · « **Reply #264 on:** May 27, 2018, 03:21:51 PM »

Rotherham miss penalty in first 10 mins and are totally dominant so far.

TheJacko2000 · « **Reply #265 on:** May 27, 2018, 03:37:47 PM »

1 nil Rotherham.

AlbionFan · « **Reply #266 on:** May 27, 2018, 03:43:48 PM »

As a young boy I used to play an FA Cup game with my brother. We would right down the names of the teams of the day on a scrap of paper and put them in a bowl and make the cup draw.

We would take it in turns to take a team from the bowl and write that teams name down against our name on a piece of paper, they would be our teams throughout the competition.

When the draw was completed, we would role a dice for our team and that was there score. Obviously, the losing team was eliminated and the winners went into the draw for the next round leading to the Cup Final.

The first team I won the FA Cup with was Rotherham and Iâ€™ve had a soft spot for them ever since.

So, I hope they are successful at Wembley today, without my loaded dice

TheJacko2000 · « **Reply #267 on:** May 27, 2018, 05:03:11 PM »

Missed most of the 2nd half.

Seems to be a much more even game.

1 all going into extra time.

Henderson with a key save at the end. Iâ€™d welcome him as our future keeper to learn from and take over from in due course, Ben

Agreed, he looks to have a good all round game, reflex saves, comes off his line, talks to and marshals his defence.

I think the commentator said he was on lone to Shrewsbury from Man United

2-1 Rotherham, yeeeeeeeeeees!

AlbionFan · « **Reply #271 on:** May 27, 2018, 05:43:21 PM »

Rotherham promoted. 2-1

Feel for the Shrews, who had a great season and finished 8 points above Rotherham

BigFrank20 · « **Reply #272 on:** May 27, 2018, 07:21:01 PM »

Shame that as Shrews would have made for a 3rd proper local derby (of sorts)

We've still got the blue noses, seals, rams, forest, stoke, 2 x sheffield, rotherham and reading as fairly localish and fairly easy to get to sensibly games to look forward to

Black Country Pride · « **Reply #273 on:** May 28, 2018, 03:15:45 PM »

Nice to see the Coventry fans giving Big Cyrille a round of applause in the ninth minute. Hope they go up.

Great finish by Edwards in the play off final
