The Division 2 table reminds me of the League One table from two years ago when Sheffield Wednesday finished 3rd with 96 points behind Ipswich Town and Plymouth Argyle. (Sadly I don't think we're going to see a 3rd consecutive Ipswich Town 2nd Place Finish.)

Millwall Athletic will beat up Birmingham St George's, take their spot and their remaining money, which should buy them a sandwich.

Apparently the threat of Millwall was a strong influence on BSG
West Bromwich Albion secure 1896/97 Division One spot
An 8th teams has now been confirmed to be applying for election to the Football League, with Nelson officially submitting their application.

Fairfield may just save themselves. To add extra stakes, if they don't avoid the bottom 3, they fold |

I'm digging how both divisions are between Mersey and The Midlands when it comes to top spot. (Division 1 East Midlands and Division 2 West Midlands)
