freezer Posted May 6, 2022 Report Share Posted May 6, 2022 Attendance, 44 742. Now that is I believe not only a record for a play-off Semi Final, but shows what a real sleeping giant and 'Big Club' they are. If only fan support decided where the teams were eh? (Well, we'd be where we are and the Gash would be where they are - we'll for now anyway) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see them nicking a second here. Plus, McEachran is looking a liability for MK and could easily get sent off I reckon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted May 6, 2022 Report Share Posted May 6, 2022 Great crowd but a poor game. Wednesday looked as if they wanted to learn to play without Barry Bannan as he was continuously by passed by long balls. Infact between the two sides the ball was in the air more than City, Gas and Bears matches combined. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottom down, 1st automatically up. Then 3rd play off against 4th, winner plays off against 2nd, winner plays off against second bottom from league above.

It used to be similar in England (remember us relegating Blades before the Walsall debacle?). I think it was stopped due to trouble after games when a side went down - the game above being a case in point - as it was considered that fans were more likely to kick off if their side were relegated rather than just missed out on going up.

22A Posted May 7, 2022 Report Share Posted May 7, 2022 Whilst watching it was pleasing to see, despite both having striped shirts and black shorts, both teams wore their home kits without an unnecessary change. The game appeared to be played in a good spirit with no vicious tackles or niggly fouls and the Ref even had a bit of banter with one or two players.
