Old Trafford To Host League Play-Offs

The Telegraph is reporting that Old Trafford is to hold the League One and Two play-off finals this May.

The move is due to the Champions League final being held at Wembley on May 28th, the day of the League Two final. The Football League have not confirmed the announcement, but the paper says they still intend to run the Championship play-off on the Bank Holiday Monday at Wembley just 36 hours after the European match.

Meanwhile Mansfield have a new owner. Lifelong fan John Radford has bought the club for £1 from the previous incumbents, but it has also cost him £500,000 in cash to keep the club operating this season. Radford made his fortune from an insurance company that is currently Doncaster's main sponsor.
