Well no, not really. I mean everyone said that when they went 5 points clear 3 weeks ago. They then won one game in 5 and found themselves in 3rd again.


So is Sheffield. Burnley is just a dreary place to visit.

Anyway I reckon Sheff Utd will miss out, simply because they're the ones I'd most like to be promoted.
No chance of Leeds blundering. They just need to get more points than the Blunts to go up on Monday. 5 points is big with only three matches left and a goal difference worth an extra point.

Wow, Leeds 5-0 up and its not HT. Far and away the best footballing team in the division.
Not only 5-0 up at HT.

All 5 goals scored by Joel Piroe

Edit: it's just 4 read it wrong.

Interesting seeing a match without VAR. Two of the goals look like they may have been chalked off for marginal offside. Certainly would have added a bit of time to the half.

Top of League 1 is looking interesting too.

Nathan Jones Charlton winning 2-0 away at second place Wycombe.

With Wrexham drawing at HT they're tied on 82 points with Wrexham, Wycombe on 84.

Next up for Charlton is Wrexham away, then a home gimme v Burton.

Wycombe have Play off Place 5th Stockport and 7th place Orient.

Could go to down to wire? Would love NJ and Charlton to do it.

Big game at the bottom of League Two. Accrington v Carlisle - a Carlisle victory would see them to within two points of the teams above them with two games left after being nine points adrift at the beginning of the month.

0-0 at the moment.

edit, Accrington scored whilst I was typing..

Burnley & Leeds promoted.
Meanwhile WBA sack Tony Mowbray
WBA are 10th, 6 pts behind the playoff spot. But lost to Derby (21st) today, who in turn lost to Luton Friday.
Funny old game isn't it?
Sheff United will end up 3rd. They will lose to either Bristol or Coventry who are 5th & 6th but 20 points below them.

Fair play to Leeds and Burnley but the commentator just stated that ‘Leeds Utd are English football royalty’

That’s possibly one of the most bollocks comments I’ve ever heard in football.
