Lovely way to end their season with a home win against Barnsley tomorrow sending them up and keeping alive our season.
Have they been the best team in this league though?
 
Wouldn’t say they are the best team we have played this season but whoever is top of the tree after everyone has played each other twice is the best team in the league.
 
Their reaction to the loss to us was four wins in a row, ten scored without conceding including knocking Bolton off their perch. Ours was a home defeat to Northampton.

Very consistent and that's why they're about to get a month head start on the other two who come up with them when it comes to planning for the step up to the championship.

I can see them having a finish line wobble tomorrow night. Because you do when you're so close and minds wander in front of an expectant crowd who'd rather not have the game at all and just invade the pitch for selfies. But they've earned the right to use what is left of the season to confirm their promotion and then crack on.
 
They've been the most consistent and therefore the best. Do they play the best football League One has ever seen? No.

Have we under performed in an extremely poor and low standard League One? Yep!
I think they've been the Plymouth of this season - hard to beat and have ground out the results.
Ironically only scored 12 goals more than us and have only conceded 6 less.
That says to me that Mousinho's in game management has been better than Critchley's.
