Three big play-off games today, with the first pair from League Two (both on Sky Sports Football):

>3:00pm: Grimsby Town v Salford City
>6:00pm: Chesterfield v Notts County

There's also the National League play-off final at Wembley to decide the final place in the 92 for next season (on DAZN):

>3:00pm: Boreham Wood v Rochdale
>>
nope, premier league for me
>>
Good afternoon sirs

Will probably focus on the National League playoff final. Can't be having Boreham Wood in the EFL can we.

>27 seconds

Saw this on the BBC livetext of the National League final:

>Arthur, Oldham: National League sides should get their house in order in terms of some sort of FFP and mirror the EFL transfer windows. Only then is it going to be 3 up.

He's unironically correct. Want more places to league football? Start acting like league football.

Aren't 4/24 teams in the National League not even professional?

The virgins of Worthing & Hornchurch have came up from National South, it's probably a bit more now.

>League 2 playoff semi clashing with National League final
>Two League 2 second legs clashing next Friday

why would they do this?
they usually spread it out so you can watch it all
I should know given it's what I do every fucking May

>>154608882
National League are retarded and the FA are retarded for treating the FA Cup like shit

I thought Worthing had been in before, but then I got them confused with Woking.

Rochdale mega choke.

>>invade own pitch to prematurely celebrate promotion
Can it be genuinely classed as the worst pitch invasion of all time?
>>
>>154609053
imagine invading your own pitch just to end up staying in the same division
kek
KEK
>>
>>154609069
slavia's own fans just invaded the pitch minutes before they were supposed to win the title, if they forfeit the game and choke the league it'll officially be the worst

It's Boreham Wood.

The poor bastards have taken their star Abdulmalik off too.

An UNWISE decision perhaps.

I want Boreham Wood to win just so Rochdale's pitch invasion is hilarious.
If Rochdale win it just means their celebrations were postponed by 2 weeks which is FAR less funny.

>>there hasn't been a National League play-off final that was won in 90 minutes since 2020
think it's because teams are naturally excessively cautious in a final but because the quality is a few ticks down they can't pour all their energy into defence and goals inevitably leak through

quite a kino combination
>>
>hmm today I will take off my two best players now that we have a 2-0 lead
^ clueless

>That goal from Emmanuel Dieseruvwe was his fifth against Boreham Wood this season. They will be glad to see the back of him.

>It is also the third goal he has scored in stoppage time - the winner at Braintree to keep alive their title hopes, that goal against York which almost got them up and now today.

That is quite remarkable

>>154609568
bear in mind, this Boreham Wood manager has been with them a while

>there when Boreham Wood were relegated in 2024
>They sack him, but then panic and rehire him in the 24/25 season
>Rehiring pays off and Boreham Wood win the 24/25 National South playoffs
>He gets them to this playoff final and they have the chance to become the first team ever to get successive playoff final wins in the National North/South and National League

wonder if they'll sack him AGAIN after this
in hindsight it was an egregious decision though of course
Abdulmalik was the star of the game by a mile.
>>
>>154609609
reminds me of Akinfenwa in L1/L2
always fun watching the playoffs every year and he pops up out of the fucking blue nearly every year (I'm an EPL baby from August-April)

seems like it'd be a fun life

Both him and Devante Rodney were ex-Wednesday youfs. That whole 2010s academy era produced a lot of lower EFL/Conference career players. Alex Hunt is another one who now plays for York City. Conor Grant at Notts County, etc.

>>154609834
Wednesday's academy basically got shut down to bare bones in the 2000s due to their shit financial situation (nothing new lol) but yeah, the Blades have had a good academy rep since then. I completely forgot that Harry Maguire played in the playoff final way back in 2011-12 when they lost to Huddersfield. He's been around for ages at this point.
Kyle Noughton was another Sheff Utd kid from that era that was one for the future but he didn't pan out after his move to Spurs.
>>
>>154609911
Naughton was class as a youth, he looked as good as Walker both in the same position but he was a year older I think and Walker overtook him soon enough. He should have made more of his career really, Tottenham was the wrong place for him.
Zak Brunt and Kyron Gordon today are another two. I thought Brunt would be at a higher level by now desu.

Fuck me you want to be scoring that

reckon boreham wood's attendance is so low because Arsenal just happened to be playing at the same time
