OTLB Posted December 13, 2020 Report Share Posted December 13, 2020 Good morning all, I am an avid EFL and non-league fan, and run a blog dedicated to such. We have launched an advent calendar this month, every day looking back at a winner from the EFL and non-league. Today, the EFL winner is the 2014-15 League One title win as Steve Cotterill oversaw promotion for the Robins. We look at all the key games along the way and key turning points, and see where the title was won. Be great to have a read over your morning cuppa, happy reading!

Davefevs Posted December 13, 2020 Report Share Posted December 13, 2020 Facebook just told me that on this date 6 years ago, my son Joe had a lovely chat with Crawley manager John Gregory about football, what he wanted for Xmas etc etc. They were chatting for so long, John forgot to hand in the team sheet!!! For me, Ayling’s 80-something minute goal (1-0 win) was the point I genuinely believed we were not only getting promoted, but going up as champs. Funnily enough Ayling got the winner away at Crawley too. But I do remember thinking John Gregory was nothing like the big-headed manager I thought he was.

It has been fun going back through all of the winners across the season and putting together calendar. As a neutral (albeit with a slight soft spot for B City due to supporting Torquay United and the obvious connections of GJ and having virtually all of your youth team on loan ) this Robins side was perhaps one of the best sides League One or in fact the Football League has seen in my opinion. Some of the football was sublime, and some of the players as well have gone on to great things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can make a couple more players like Lemonheigh-Evans and Andrews for us to pinch on a free then that would be great. CLE particularly is quite some player.
