Leeds v Southampton today. The winner will have the dubious honour of having 6 points taken off them by CPFC next season... I knew this a while back but was reminded of it by a comment on the t'internet today; with 4 wins, we are the only club to have won more than 2 Championship/Division 2 play-off finals. And each victory was (arguably?) at a different venue; Selhurst Park, old Wembley Stadium, Millennium Stadium (as it was then called) and new Wembley Stadium.

That’s right mate, no one has won more play off finals than us, in any division I think. I was surprised there was still teams who have never played at Wembley old and new, Crawley broke their duck recently, but Accrington Stanley and although not a league team at the moment, Hartlepool still haven’t played there Nice to see saints winning atm, sod dirty Leeds

I was there, we were quite excited about it, back in the days before any old team got to play at Wembley because of the play offs and fa cup semi finals , you had to get to a cup final to see your team play there, so for most teams it was impossible

I wonder if we could petition to keep Luton instead?
