This is too much of a colour clash for my colour blind eyes. Inconsiderate C's! I agree, why the hell Argyle can't play in green I don't know. It's ridiculous how often an away kit is used when it clashes more than the normal home kit would. We often play in our away kit when there is no reason not to play in blue. In my opinion away kits should ONLY be used when the home kit clashes. That's how it used to be! I believe it's to do with sponsorship deals quite often. Any team, like us, who have different sponsors for home and away strips have to wear each one so many times per season.

According to their manageraccrington 'should have got promoted automatically', well now is the time for them to prove that they're the next best in the league. Not a good opinion of a manager heading into the playoffs in my opinion, entitlement never ends well

Go in to the playoffs like that and they'll come unstuck again.

Not a good opinion of a manager heading into the playoffs in my opinion, entitlement never ends well He's pretty unbelievable that Coleman. He wants to concentrate on the next game rather than crying to the press cos he lost out on the autos. They had a good year but I don't see where he gets this sense of entitlement from . I think Wimbledon will do accy.

Can't really see anything here to criticise, I didn't realise Accrington went 12 games unbeaten!
Boss John Coleman believes Accrington Stanley's efforts should have been rewarded with automatic promotion, rather than a spot in the play-offs.
Accrington needed a final-day win to secure promotion to League One, but they were held to a draw by Stevenage.
They finished with 85 points, a tally which would have seen them go up in each of the previous seven seasons, but they missed out on goal difference.
"We were good enough to get promoted" Coleman told BBC Radio Lancashire.
"At the start of the season I thought 85 points would have been good enough."
Twice in the past seven years the 85-point total would have been enough to go up as champions, with Gillingham winning the League Two title with 83 points in 2012-13, while it took 84 points for Chesterfield to finish top 2013-14.
"A lot of people have said to me this week that I'd have taken the play-offs at the start of the year, but I genuinely wouldn't have," 53-year-old Coleman said.
"For whatever reason we haven't got enough points, but I would have bitten your hand off for 85 points."
Coleman has guided Stanley to the League Two play-offs for the second time in six years, with his side beaten by Stevenage at the semi-final stage in 2010-11.
Accrington, unbeaten in 12 games, start their play-off campaign against AFC Wimbledon at Kingsmeadow on Saturday, with the return leg on Wednesday.
While Coleman refuses to look ahead to a potential Wembley play-off final, he does hope his players can deliver overdue celebrations.
"We are probably the only team at this stage who had the champagne and the flags brought to two games and not got them out," Coleman said.
"Let's hope they don't get put away for a third

John Coleman text DC congratulations straight after the game and if you actually listen to what he says and how you'll quickly realise that he's "not going on" but is obviously hugely disappointed, which I think is pretty understandable.

It does seem odd that he keeps quoting this view - it seems to me to be the wrong message now, he needs to be geeing his players up, not effectively telling them they've done enough already.
Anyway - we're up and all our lucky kettles should now be called Trevor.

I'm inclined to agree as you'd imagine that dwelling on it isn't going to help them bounce back but then we don't know how JC motivates his squad. However he does it seems to work as they really have performed well above what was expected so fair play to him. Hopefully it's part of a master plan rather than something he can't get past himself. Good luck to them I say.

Strange that when we've been relegated before by goal difference it was entirely our own fault.
