The League One, League Two and Non-League Football Thread - The Lower Leagues

[Pegojack]

I see Huw Jenkins is presiding over a Newport side who are 22nd in League Two.

We might have to re-title this thread 'Lower League and Non League' soon.

Not a football genius then? Who knew.

Doubt any of the U21's now playing 1st team got any pay rises at Cardiff. Any good ones will probably be bought in January further weakening the team. At best the good one's will be gone next summer. So its this season or a long time for promotion.

They had a relatively easy set of opening fixtures. Play offs high probability. Auto's nah

Barnsley, I think are one of them.

 

[Pegojack]

Huddersfield no, Barnsley yes.

Oof, they’ll all be waiting for ball 13, it’ll be a cup final for all the other teams, etc…

 

[monmouth]

Bolton? Did you include Wimbledon? That’s a stretch.

There’s at least a couple of league cup winners in there too.

Bury aren’t in that list but won a final 6 - 0. Sadly no longer exist.

Yep. Bolton and Barnsley missing from Penlan Jack's answer. Splitting hairs on Wimbledon!

 

[Manselton Jack]

Huddersfield no, Barnsley yes.

I thought Huddersfield won the lot under Herbert Chapman

My apologies, there are nine not eight, including Huddersfield. Doh!

Didn’t Bury supporters restart team at lowest level, think they’ve been promoted a few times since.

They merged with another Bury team and still play at Gigg Lane
