I know we all love to hate the Stags but let’s be magnanimous and congratulate them on their well deserved promotion. Nigel Clough has managed them well, slow but steady progress over the years, buying decent players, they deserve their promotion so well done.

I think Forest could be in trouble over this, how unprofessional.

Gateshead have failed eligibility to play in the EFL and have been booted out the playoffs against Solihull. Solihull will get a bye to the semi final. This is also hard on Aldershot who came eighth but can't replace Gateshead. The authorities waited right till the end of the regular season to make this decision when they knew Gateshead were ineligible. Another stinking decision by the football authorities.

It looks on a bit of knife edge, the Rams sit second in league one 3 points clear of Bolton with two games to go. I hope they manage to go up. Lets hear from @super_ram with his thoughts.

Fully deserved to be named in the League 2 team of the season, Macaulay & Jodi.

"EFL clubs have unanimously approved a record domestic rights deal with Sky Sports over a five-year period with over 1000 matches to be broadcast each season – a record number of games for any club football agreement. Running from season 2024/25 to 2028/29, the arrangement will be made up of guaranteed payments of £895m and £40m in marketing benefits".

Week 29 of 46 Notts' v Stockport match has been postponed. Only four games in league 2 have escaped the weather. MK Dons v Morecambe Newport v Wrexham Gillingham v Forest Green Barrow V Crewe

David Noble and his assistant Neil Banfield have been relieved of their duties at Wealdsone. David was only appointed on 26th January following Stuart Maynard going to Notts. A poor set of results sees Wealdsone in danger of relegation.

League 2 Morecambe have been deducted 3 points by the EFL which will be effective immediately, and basically ends their bid to make the playoffs. They drop to 14th place, 2 points ahead of Notts, having played one game more than Notts. Further information in the link below.

Swansea were well beaten at home by Southampton yesterday although watching the highlights they had some good chances, Williams said after the match it will take time to get their ideas across. I wonder how patient the Swansea fans are?
