League One:

Sheffield Wednesday (3rd), Barnsley (4th) & Bolton (5th) are guaranteed to be in.

Derby are currently 6th with 76 points, Peterborough (74) the only one within a chance to pip them at the post. Sheff Wed vs Derby, Barnsley vs Peterborough on the final day.

Plymouth and Ipswich automatically promoted to the Championship.

Forest Green and Accrington Stanley relegated to League Two. Two out of Cambridge, Morecambe and MK Dons will also get relegated.

League Two:

Either Stockport (3rd), Northampton (4th) or Bradford (7th, one game in hand) will grab the last automatic promotion spot on the final day.

Carlisle (5th), Salford (6th) and Bradford all on 75 points before the last week. Mansfield on 72 points is the only one who can theoretically get in.

Leyton Orient and Stevenage automatically promoted to League One.

Rochdale and Hartlepool relegated to the National League.

Neil Wood has done a decent job. Salford have won a few games recently with very late winners. Hope they go up, would be nice if we could structure some kind of a loan scheme, if they are interested in that.

Bradford City could still get automatic promotion. They beat my home town team with a 94th minute winner today.
 
I would like Salford to win from League Two and I would not like Wednesday to win in League One.

Heartbreak for Derby on the final day as them losing to Sheffield Wednesday and Peterborough beating Barnsley means Peterborough grab the last playoff spot.

The ties are:

Sheff Wed vs Peterborough
Barnsley vs Bolton

MK Dons and Morecambe join Forest Green Rovers and Accrington Stanley in getting relegated to League Two.
 
Notts County losing at home to Boreham Wood in the National League playoffs. Gutting if they don't make it up.
 
Fergie and The Posh are just a match made in league football heaven.

HMS We’ll piss this league has run aground - Oh dear!
 
Chesterfield vs Bromley starting in a few minutes, with Harry’s brother, Laurence Maguire, starting on the bench for Chesterfield.
 
I’m quite looking forward to the Stockport game tomorrow. I’m not a massive County fan but it’s been sad seeing them out of the league for so long. Back to back promotions would be great for them and Stockport.

On paper Northampton have a harder game than them and they need the win for the third auto promotion spot, assuming County beat already relegated Hartlepool.
 
Derby miss out on the playoffs. I reckon they’ll be down there for awhile

Aye, they went BIG in the summer gambling on promotion (at least, that’s how it appears from the outside).
 
Lof of drama in the National League playoff semis today.

Notts County equalising in the 96th minute and winning it in the last minute of extra time.

Bromley get a red card in the second half and Chesterfield score minutes later to make it 2-1. Bromley come level with 10 men in the 98th minute.

Chesterfield get the winner in ET and book their ticket to Wembley.

15:30 Notts County vs Chesterfield

Northampton get promoted to League One. Mansfield needed one more goal to go above Salford in 7th place.

After last season's heartbreak, really great to see my home town promoted automatically. Up the Town!

Yes, it's a much better feeling this year than last.
They've done really well considering they've had up to 12 players missing for the last three months of the season.
Up The Cobblers .

Definitely! Agreed, they've done really well to overcome their injury issues. I feared for them last week when Bradford scored that late winner against them. Bring on League one!
 
Peterborough will go up, Darren will be sacked around Christmas time then if Wrexham struggle he will end up there (ex player, knows how to get teams up and the last-name exposure might be a lot to pass up)
 
Powerful stuff. Well done to James Alger, Colin Calderwood, Jon Brady and especially their families.

 
Was at the Dartford - St Albans game at the weekend, quite fun.
 
I fancy Bolton and Stockport. I’m not that far from Stockport and been to a couple of there games this season.
