Playoff Final date?

Post by G0foste » Sun Feb 23, 2025 1:13 pm

Does anyone know when the playoff final is or when the actual date will be confirmed. When I look it just says the weekend of 24th May to 26th May but not the specific date.

And let's not forget the F.A. Cup final the week before.

Could get quite expensive with two Wembley trips! :)

Lets get past the playoff semi final before we start thinking about when the final is. Think Plymouth played Bolton in the play offs one year and after a good first leg had started booking their coaches to Wembley. Bolton beat them in the second leg and made them look right idiots so lets not fall into that trap

I remember that. Jim Francis scored twice for Bolton and celebrated by dancing with a female steward.

When we played Plymouth in the play off semi and they drew 0-0 with 10 men. "We only need 10 men", my wife worked with a Plymouth born lady. All the family were arranging to kip at hers in Salisbury on their way to Wembley.

Then along came Super Johnny Francis and my wife told her how we were off to Wembley and then when we won! :lol: :lol: 8-) :lol:

Hopefully loanees will be ok but I seem to remember Rhys Williams couldn't play for us in 2009 as his loan had finished

Plymouth did that against us. They drew at Burnley and we had such a bad away record they thought they had won. I went to the away game and a steward gave me his, now useless, ticket for the coach to Wembley :lol: .
