Last time we won promotion from league 1 at Boston wasnt a certain piggy faced fat bloke in charge of them 🐖🐖

Strange how things work out 🤔

It was Andy, and although Evans is a detestable inflated wind bag I thought he dealt with the situation brilliantly that day. The Boston players and Evans all created a bit of a funnel and all applauded the Rovers players to a man. He could have been a complete t**t and done nothing be he was grown up enough to congratulate the Rovers.
Evans is allegedly a mate of Darrens so I'd say he'll be respectful again even though Saturday may only be a promotion confirmation.
The big prize is gonna be champs which I reckon could be the Wycombe game. Might come sooner but I think with Plymouth claiming they've thrown the towel in ($£!!??) they'll still be hammering away at our back door.

We won promotion at home to Cambridge and sealed the title with that 0-0 at Boston didn't we?

Still wonder if the Cambridge defender has regained consciousness after Bayo landed on him sending him colliding into the goalpost

returning the compliment should be combined with the mooted pitch invasion: evans should be thwown wuffly to the ground, stripped to his leather thong*, basted in sticky toffee, liberally sprinkled with hundreds and thousands and left to eat himself to death

* i'm not volunteering for this bit

I think Wycombe or at home to Exeter the following week. Easter Monday is, I think, the earliest we can do it mathematically, but that relies on Plymouth dropping points.

Just go out for three points every game, the EFL will decide when to bring the trophy, perhaps it will be after my holidays on 29th July

Correct, if our plans go well, Plymouth will still be 6 points behind and will have to keep bashing away to get their auto promotion, they won't stop trying until it's mathematically impossible to take the title.

What happens when Plymouth play Portsmouth will have a big impact on when we could expect the title. Thats if our results go our way too. It could be as soon as Blackpool
