Or alternatively they could just spend 2 seasons in the third tier and get promoted, like yourselves did.
Can't see it. They don't have the financial clout they used to have and their fans aren't as loyal as ours.
town and wednesday for autos?
I wonder if he'll retain Agent Wilson.
They'd have gone up in an automatic spot if Evans hadn't been banged up.....can't blame Wilson for that.
So, he deserves a 2nd season.
I thought it was in his "contract" with Wednesday that this season was just about consolidating their position in League 1!! He cut it close in the end but came through with flying colors!!
His contract goes on to say that season 2 is where he really gets to the job of ruining them for years!!!
Looking at an article relating to the Blunts debt at the start of the season, it suggested that this season would be a case of do or die..
..quoting Wilson, half way through the season ' hope we can hold on to Ched Evans ' suggested that McCabe was already on the track of selling and a shoe string strategy, even if they gained promotion..
..can't see them spending for next season with their once prized asset being no longer..
..and without him, they are currently a zero man team.
At least they can look forward to derbies at Donny Dingles and Rotherham in 2 years if they can survive

Sheffield United will have to cut wage bill
Sheffield United chairman Kevin McCabe has revealed the last two seasons have cost the club £15m.
United missed out on promotion from League One at the first attempt after losing 8-7 on penalties to Huddersfield in the play-off final.
"The last two seasons have cost about £15m, with a high wage bill and less revenue," he told BBC Radio Sheffield.
"With the new financial fair play rules we are going to have to work with a lower budget next season."
He added: "Unless we get the wage bill down next season then we'll face financial penalties."
McCabe moved to allay fears that needing to reduce the budget would mean any of the club's top performers would need to be sold on.

“The club is in good hands with a top class manager at the helm and one aim for next season - automatic promotion”
Kevin McCabe Sheffield United chairman
Young centre-half Harry Maguire, full-back Matthew Lowton and midfielder Stephen Quinn have both been linked with moves to teams in higher divisions.
"I'd love to keep hold of them and there is certainly no 'for sale' signs on their heads," McCabe continued.
"They've all had great seasons and we don't want to lose them, but obviously we have a problem if someone comes in and offers them a package we can't match."
The Blades chairman encouraged fans to not be negative after a painful end to the season.
Having seen local rivals Sheffield Wednesday pip them to automatic promotion, their failure to go up through the play-offs means United have been unsuccessful in all six of their play-off campaigns.
"Our supporters must forget being down-hearted. We've had a successful season that has ended in failure but we must look forward," he concluded.
"The club is in good hands with a top class manager at the helm and one aim for next season - automatic promotion."
