Oh are we having a quiz.? I will go for Burnley.
My question now ..which team have qualified for the play -offs on nine occasions spanning all three divisions but have never been promoted via this route,which is a football league record?
Preston's first appearance in the play-offs was in 1989 when they were beaten in the third tier (now League One) play-off semi-final by Port Vale.
In the fourth tier (now League Two), Preston lost in the 1994 final to Wycombe Wanderers 4–2 at the original Wembley stadium, after beating Torquay United in the semi-finals. A year later they were beaten by Bury at the semi-final stage.
Preston's next play-off appearance was in the third tier in 1999, where they were beaten by Gillingham in the semi-finals. After promotion to the First Division (now the Championship) in 1999/2000, Preston reached the play-offs in their first season, beating Birmingham City in the semi-final on penalties before being defeated by Bolton Wande
