What a performance by Haven with only 16 players to win it with the last play of the match.

Does anyone know where the ‘ hundred pound’ game will be played?  Thats the play off between 12 th place finisher in the championship and the winner of the league one play off.

I believe it'll be at the Championship club's ground.

Worth a lot more than £100, though.  That was a very poor joke.

Pretty sure it's at the Championship clubs home ground. Whoever it is will be far too good for the L1 side.

I believe the same but cant find any announcement anywhere and asking around has unveiled nothing.

"Ground of the higher placed club" is a bland but common phrase. Why would it be different for this play-off?

Mmmmm - was not the final going to be played at Fev last year ?

I think we've learned that the knock-out stages are very different from the regular league season.

Dons by 28 at Haven would be a record by my reckoning, just hoping for the win🤞 and Haven to pull through this difficult time and regroup. Seen it enough times with the Dons and I wish them well.

It has never been announced, at the moment we are all presuming it will be at the Championship teams ground. Really have to feel for the 3rd from bottom team if they were to get relegated, for a number of clubs it could help kill them off and all for the sake of helping a lower league even up numbers.

Yeah just go to any browser and put www. followed by anything you want and end it with .co.uk or .com and you won't find the announcement. Rinse and repeat until you have checked all websites.
