And if we come 4th or 5th we'd be at Home in the second leg which is always nice aswell.

Didn't we have this conversation when we played Leatherhead in the cup once and I had to "get some milk". Or better still last season on my Brother Inlaws stag do when we were at Old Trafford and I had to "pop out to get a striper"?

you need to renew your vows Paul - i'd suggest round about july (so as to avoid the summer world cups/euros etc), and that way you could enjoy an interruption-free end of season, and give mrs awayday her quality time without it interfering with footy :-D

Quite possibly. But the point is if you come back with what you said you were going to get you havent lied.

And thats all that matters really... :whistle:

Realistically, bar a big drop in form, should Crawley edge us out, we'll be on the Saturday evening away, and the Wednesday night at home.

Cheers, Lexus.

If Southend overtook us and we finished 5th then would we be at home second leg?

Also is it 4th plays 7th and 5th plays 6th?

Yep, teams who finish 4th or 5th get home advantage in second leg.

4th v 7th
5th v 6th

League 2
1st Leg crewe v southend - Saturday 12th May 2012, kick-off 5.30pm
1st Leg cheltenham v torquay - Sunday 13th May 2012, kick-off 12.00pm

2nd Leg southend v crewe- Wednesday 16th May 2012, kick-off 7.45pm
2nd Leg torquay v cheltenham - Thursday 17th May 2012, kick-off 7.45pm

The Final will take place at Wembley on Sunday 27th May 2012, with a 3pm kick-off.

i believe this is now correct

on the plus side we'd all have chosen cheltenham i think?? its easy to get to at 12 on a sunday and should ensure another sell out in the away end
