So, with 51 points to play for in total, this is how things panned out for our nine contestants. Three of us (Eppers, Mini-Herm and me) also registered 'Hall of Shame' predictions that Crawley would drop out of, rather than go up from, League Two; Lennie did likewise with Oxford United in League One; while three did the opposite with their promotion hopefuls, Birmingham (Dudders and H), Blyth (Duds again) and Boreham Wood (Sir Len), whose campaigns ended, alas, in relegation.
