The reason is as follows... I fully expect that Notts will be involved near the top end of the table next season and believe that Coventry, if they’re still in League 2, will also be strong contenders. They have quite a few good young players, who are likely to be better next time round. They might also have banked a bit of money which could be used to strengthen the squad and might have that winger who ripped us apart on the opening day of the season (Jody Jones was it?) coming back. League 2 next season is likely to be even more competitive with Tranmere coming up and some clubs with decent pedigrees coming down.
Quite frankly, if Coventry are out of the way, that’s one less to worry about and I don’t have the same feeling about Exeter.
Not a very ethical way to decide my allegiance for the forthcoming final, I know, but I think it may be in Notts best interests.
