Blimey. - We've done it in European Cups, a tad loftier than a 2cnd division play off. Hardly the shock of the century. To be fair, we're not the first team to get through to the final after losing the first leg of a playoff at home in all levels of the football league, just the Championship. Yeovil did it back in League One in 2007, but I can't for the life of me remember who the absolute bottlers were that let them do that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being born in Yeovil, but brought up in Belper and identifying as Derby, i can confirm that 2007 was the greatest playoff year, ever, that I could get. If Carlsberg did playoff years.......?

But I do have to say, without any of that local rival bile, that this is just fricking awful. It looks like something you would pick up in the Primark sale and regret buying before you've even got it home. It's awful..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair they probably got to keep it for ever, seeing as it changed to the Champion's League around then. (I know it didn't really). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
