On the basis of the small sample of games I've seen this season and the frequent games I saw at league 1, I'd definitely begger to differ on their is 'zero difference'.

In fact, most teams that come up tend to finish mid-table or higher. Admittedly, that’s not the same as the OP stating there is zero difference between the leagues. I believe momentum plays a huge part, both for promoted teams and relegated ones too. Luckily, Bower has managed to arrest our slide, but other sides have found it harder. And those finishing strongly in L2, tend to start well in L1 and with good summer additions, it’s possible to do a Burton or a LutonWilsdenBantam and XCIV_Bantam like this. -
My guess would be that the closest two leagues in terms of standard would be league 2 and the conferenceIdlebantam likes this. -

I agree with OP here, i genuinely think we would be a mid table league one side now. The standards are quite similar between the two. I think wimbledon and southend would be in the relegation zones regardless of league... The only exceptional side in all 48 teams (L1 & L2) is Ipswich! They are already 5 pts clear and still havent lost a game yet.

The biggest difference between the two tiers is finishing, the better strikers and players with end product often are higher up the food chain. I don’t think there is much in it except for the teams that come down from the championship, as cougars points out most if not all who get promoted from this league fair well. The teams that came up from non league are arguably struggling this season more than those who were promoted from this league, although there is more.
We’d be fine if we get promoted I’m certain of it, I’m
Certainly more confident than I am of us actually getting promoted this season.
The gap that worries me is league 1 to the championship, we’d have to do something special just to consolidate now the gap is so big.Stop hovering to collapse... Click to collapse... Hover to expand... Click to expand...Andy Pringle likes this. -

I watched Bolton Blackpool and both teams were awful I’d say the difference is minimal

The football played in League Two is of poorer quality in my opinion as is the officialdom.
Not one club is running away at the top.
Just look at the points for column in the League table,lose one or two games on the trot and you plummet faster than a lead weight.
Promotion really is anybody's this season.
A clearer picture will appear in the New Year and I firmly believe City will be up there challenging but I've yet to see any of our opposition play us off the park such is the level of quality performances shown in League Two. -

Highlights from a couple of weeks back.
4 goals that no matter how bad we were last year, i still dont think we'd have conceded.
