    Have they changed the rules and winning the semi gets you promoted or something?! Absolutely embarrassed for him. Ridiculous display. Thought the pitch invasion was a bit tinpot too. I mean, I know we had three, but at least we had an actual promotion to celebrate.

    Pitch invasions if the home team win a 2nd leg in the semi final are pretty standard these days, I don't think many are doing it to celebrate anything they are just using it as an excuse to go on the pitch

    Idea of being 1 match away from promotion. Wembley bound? Tinpot, imagine getting 3rd in the basement league.

    His antics towards his own back room staff when one of his players overhit a free kick was appalling . I hope Orient batter them …

    That wasn’t passion , it was intimidating to whoever was on the receiving end.

    Are the celebration police out in force? We know as a success starved club that you have to enjoy the moments when they come along. Yes nothing has been won but a day out at Wembley and a foot in the championship is something worth celebration as long as you take into account you still have 90 to 120min of a job to do.

    I guess next season we are losing one trip to London, which isn't really a bad thing, saying that Wycombe is an arse to get too and it is a rather boring away day in a stadium dumped on the outskirts of a Town with nothing around it bar an industrial estate.

    Mmm rather go to London than Wycombe! Your sales pitch made it sound like Hell!

    Quite like a day out at Charlton or Orient. In particular it would be good to go to Orient and get at least a point

    Yeah, Wycombe is really just stuck onto the side of the Town miles out of the Centre. I've been to out of town grounds before but they all seem to have something round it, Bolton, Wigan, etc. Wycombe is like on it's own next to a wood and a massive car park.

    Colchester , in the middle of nowhere surrounded by industrial and car showrooms . You need a car to get there!

    Notts County have announced that McGoldrick is injured and won't play again this season. Can't see them getting to Wembley without him.

    Thought Chesterfield were really poor in the first leg and they haven't got going at all yet in the second leg.

    Yer, they were not good. Less on them this time I'd say, Walsall started really well but they need to get back into the match now.

    You've got to wonder if that Pepple is going to make one right decision at some point because he's wasted everything so far

    He’s lively with zero product….When will Cook realise he wants another up front to give them another outlet .

    Walsall can soak up the lone man up front all day long .

    I can’t see anyone but Wimbledon at the moment unless there is a huge turnaround in both games.
