    Apart from all the empty seats this isn't a bad advert for league 1 football

    Due to unprecedented demand, they had booked an 18 seater!

    Agree. There would have been fewer empty seats if two north western clubs didn't have to trek all the way to Wembley late on a Sunday afternoon.

    Nor do either fan base have 40,000 fans. Nothing wrong with that either.

    I'm glad that Bolton are going up, apart from that I've got them on a treble with Hull and Salford for promotion this weekend, I think Bolton would be stronger next season than what Stockport are.

    A lot has been mentioned about Bolton's transfer business but business to bring in Bonham after Sharman-Lowe got dropped and then recalled has been brilliant, huge saves in the 2nd leg and today.

    Bad day for Stockport gets worse, I think Dacres-Cogley has already been sent off this season so assuming he has and he extended ban carries over into the play offs he'll be out for the first 4 games next season for that.

    Rough on Stockport is that. They haven't been three goals worse. Bolton just found a way to break the shackles from the forst half. Stockport, like us, are more limited than Bolton but tried hard.

    Something has to be done about this long hair lark. Either it has to be cut or a hairnet used. The ref has to check for earrings, rings and necklaces, now sort out this farce.

    Better teams promoted. They pretty much already have a championship squad and budget, can't see them struggling in the level above either

    In Yankee football, hair coming out from under the helmet is considered a part of the uniform. And I’m sure I read somewhere that if you grab it, it is not a foul.

    At least the hair is inside a helmet so that's a bit better, but in football the hair is flailing around. Jump for a cross with a player with dreadlocks, yes like lengths of rope, the player flicks his head to direct the ball and those lengths of dreadlock slap in the face. Is that acceptable?

    That's discrimination m8, unless you're going to demand the same for the women's game.

    Could well be Petrov, but where do we draw the line? Are players with short hair discriminated against? Surely this stuff cannot continue, something must be done, it's ridiculous.

    Oh I agree it is, but 99 times out of a 100 without VAR that doesn't get given. I'd say it's VAR that's more of the problem than the long hair.

    But there is no VAR in the EFL and that is where it is really happening.
