    We now know the other 23 teams with us in League 2 next season after yesterdays victory for Bradford at Wembley in the play off final.

    Here are the full line up of teams for League 2 next season...

    Portsmouth
    Scunthorpe
    Hartlepool
    Bury
    Northampton
    Burton
    Cheltenham
    Chesterfield
    Oxford
    Exeter
    Southend
    Rochdale
    Gas
    Fleetwood
    Morecambe
    Wycombe
    York
    Accrington
    Torquay
    Wimbledon
    Plymouth
    Dagenham
    Mansfield
    Newport

    Top 7 is a must. Can we achieve this with these teams? Who will be our main challengers for a top 7 spot?

    I've never seen a more one-sided play-off final. It's good to see Bradford go up, as they would have been very tough opponents next season.

    As for whether we'll challenge, I still think the squad needs some improvement, especially in midfield, but top 7 must be the aim.

    Portsmouth will have a good chance as they're stabilising and have already signed around five or six players. Cheltenham might challenge again (hopefully not), and Chesterfield look a very good team that's capable of winning promotion.

    Portsmouth. Oxford, Southend, Chesterfield, Gas and Plymouth should (in theory!) be up there challenging next season, although I think the league will be slightly weaker than this season.

    Congrats to Bradford, they're a strong team who had a fantastic run in and won the final with consummate ease. <applause>
