    Today's thought comes in the form of a poll.

    Who will join Crawley Town in the Football League by winning the Conference Playoffs?

    AFC Wimbledon
    Luton Town
    Wrexham
    Fleetwood Town


    To help you,here's a mini league of their results against each other this season:

    THERE'S NOTHING IN IT!


    Fleetwood ------ P6 W2 D2 L2 F5 A6 - PTS 8
    AFC Wimbledon-- P6 W2 D2 L2 F4 A6 - PTS 8
    Luton Town----- P5 W2 D1 L2 F7 A4 - PTS 7
    Wrexham-------- P5 W2 D1 L2 F3 A3 - PTS 7

    Luto host Wrexham in the final match of the season on Saturday!

    I should add that the league results in the fixtures in question ended thus:

    Fleetwood 1-1 Wimbledon
    Wrexham 1-0 Luton

    Wimbledon 1-0 Fleetwood
    Luton TBA Wrexham

    I have a couple of AFC Womble fans and will make myself unpopular with them, but Luton are the form team at the moment so I would have to go with them. But I do like to see new faces in the different leagues so would like Fleetwood or AFC to go up.

    I would like to see Luton Town do it. After what they went through, they deserve to return to the Football League.

    Can't say I'm a massive fan, sorry!
    The High Llamas are my faves at the moment.
    All time would be Yello, Cocteau twins, Corduroy, Herbie Hancock and Stereolab.
    And a whole load of Classical, Brazilian music and some jazz, baby!

    Definitely Luton. Surprisingly, they've not had quite so much pressure on them this year, due to the success of Crawley and AFC Wimbledon. I think they'll beat Wrexham and then AFC Wimbledon.

    AFC Wimbledon will crumple under the pressure, despite pretty much being good enough to have won the league any other year. I'm backing them to beat Fleetwood and then lose to Luton in the final.

    Wrexham have done well after a few years of ****, but results like the 7-2 home defeat against Gateshead suggest a return to the Football League this May might just be 12 months too early. So not only do I think it might be a good thing if they don't go up, I also think they're not good enough anyway, given the opposition.

    As for Fleetwood, they have the financial clout to do well, but I can't see such a small club overcoming first AFC Wimbledon and then one of the other two. I just hope they don't go the same way as Histon who, lest we forget, finished 3rd and beat Leeds United in the FA Cup two years ago. And where are they now? Bottom and heading for the Conference South.


    Play-Off Predictions:

    Semi-Finals

    Fleetwood Town 0-1 AFC Wimbledon
    AFC Wimbledon 2-1 Fleetwood Town

    (AFC Wimbledon winning 3-1 on aggregate)


    Wrexham 2-1 Luton Town
    Luton Town 3-0 Wrexham

    (Luton Town winning 4-2 on aggregate)


    Final

    AFC Wimbledon 0-2 Luton Town
