FFS how on earth has that happened. Ridiculous.
Orders from above! The EFL couldn't bear an all L2 final for their "showpiece" final.
One suspects the ref will receive a gold watch in gratitude - hopefully one that keeps slightly more accurate time.
Two plus points though:
1) Did we REALLY want the distraction of the final disrupting our main priority. Rather a trip to Cheltenham than an expensive jaunt to Wem-ber-ley
2) The Cornish "spaffed" their game in hand up the wall!

That competition has shown how talented our squad is and that includes young players.They should be proud of how they have performed in it this season.

The youngsters looked good, will have been a good experience for them.

Not sure who I'd give my MOTM to.

Have no idea where even 5 minutes came from. Robbery.
Obvious who they wanted at Wembley.

Really gutted but thankfully Plymouth have not been able to take full advantage of their game in hand.
