    City take an early lead against Pochettino. Time for a quick double from Neymar and PSG winning 4-3 and going through on away goals. <whistle>

    Maybe I shouldn't have mentioned City's success in the 3rd tier the other day... <whistle>

    As Posh got promoted last week, it will now make my club the longest serving tenure in the third tier, next season.

    We got promoted with MadDog (Martin Allen) from L2 in the 2012/13 season.

    Just now, don't know about ever, doubt it would be us, as we were often a Division 4 club.

    Oldham are the top scorers in League Two with 72 goals.
    They're in 18th place though, as they've also conceded more than any other team with 78.
    I don't know if that's entertaining or just incredibly frustrating for their fans.

    I hate League Two it really was the pits when we were last down there, I'd rather be National League.

    I went to see Barnet v Oxford Utd in that division quite a few years back.
    The visitors were slagging off the stadium, somewhat understandably, and singing "Football league, you're having a laugh" all match.
    Then they got relegated at the end of the season! <laugh>

    I've been to Barnet but it was a new ground when I went. Although Oxford ain't got much room to shout, decent ground but it's only three sided, they never finished the final section, that leads straight into a car park. Typical sterile ground though, unlike the old Manor Ground, which I'd also been to.

    I haven't been to Barnet's new ground yet, mainly because it's not in ****ing Barnet.
    Not their fault, as the council basically forced them out, but it's a lot more of a pain in the arse for me to get to it.
    Supposed to be alright, but one of those modern, sterile grounds that you hate. Does have four sides, though.

    I think it looked a cheap but clean build, from memory bit like a meccano kit.

    So Pompey, Oxford and Charlton all to battle it out in their final game, for one remaining play-off place and only one point difference and GD in it. One set of fans will be happy and two will be crying.
