when you look at those stats its hard to see much movement for any club from where they are now? Top 3 are way ahead of 4th who are way ahead of 6th. A little movement in the group of teams 7th to 14th if someone has a good run but for most they are at or around their natural crowd levels. 15th to 18th possibly a place change is possible but anyone below 18th wont be increasing their attendances anytime soon no matter how well they do

Looking at those top 8 with attendances over 10k, i'll let Barnsley in as they are only 52 short of this figure, there are going to be a lot of disappointed fans when, at the end of this season, at least 5 of them are not going to get promoted regardless of the expectations, ambitions and finances of their clubs and fellow fans. Of course, it could be more than 5 if 1 or more of 'the rest' sneak into the playoffs edging out 1 or more of these so called 'big ' clubs. I can see lots of Kleenex tissues - other paper handkerchiefs are available - being sold up and down L1 come April/May.

Does anyone know the cash amounts for where you finish in the league for L1?

Unless it's changed recently, there's no prize money or payment based on where you finish.

So then our Pompey friend as an interested top of the table nuetral (as we all ALL want an Ipswich win) do you want an away win on the basis that Ipswich will be going up regardless and it's better to dent a potential rival as Argyle, prefer an Argyle win as you think you may stand a chance of the title, or sit on the fence and go for a draw?

Wash your mouth out with soap ST Jamesy - on a Sunday as well !
Any Grecian worth their salt surely can not wish for a Gargoyle win ?
