5 teams from league one can get promoted next week automatically. does anyone remember a league so close with one game to go? I dont.
I think Huddersfield have the least chance of getting 2nd spot but i think they will win the playoffs.
For me
Millwall and udders.

Leeds and Swindon for me.

I think it'll be Leeds in the runners up spot. Then for the play-offs it's a hard one to call.
Millwall are probably the most effective out of the 4 sides in there, but they have shown that they are not immune from having an off day now and then, and the Play offs are all about turning up on the day. Swindon are the dark horses and have done exceptionally well, but I think they might just fall short against the wiser and more experienced teams in the Play offs. Charlton are strong at the moment and they are a match for anyone in that league. And Huddersfield go in with momentum and confidence, much like Scunthorpe last year, and it wouldn't surprise me to see them do well.
It is really really tough to call. I can't tip one team from those in the play-offs, as they all look so strong in their own different ways. One thing I can call is that I think Leeds will get the 2nd automatic promotion place. As much as I would like to see Bristol Rovers go there and turn them over, I just can't see it. No matter how shaky they have been recently, it is in their hands, and I think they will see Bristol Rovers off without too many problems.

Yes it's hard to see Leeds falling over Bristol Rovers but if you saw Beckford yesterday on the pitch after just getting beat, he was laughing and joking with one of the opposition players. With him in the side these days it must feel like playing with ten men.
And then, they fell over one set of Rovers two years ago when they thought they only had to turn up, so why shouldn't it happen again... how sweet that would be, and if they do it's so tight up there it's unlikely that everyone in the chasing pack will fail to get a win.

For me, Leeds will get the 2nd auto spot with either Millwall or Huddersfield winning the play offs, but as we all know, the play offs spring up all sorts of surprises

Be great for the region for Leeds and Huddersfield to come up, especially with losing Wednesday. With Hull joining the party and Forest failing in the play-offs, then there are going to be more memorable games.
Only downside will be PC plod licking their lips at the prospect of more overtime, when they stick their noses in and schedule more early kick-offs !

Well he has been on the bench for the past 6 or 7 games and has come up with the goals when he has been playing, so he must be doing something right.
