York due to virtue of their points tally and the history of the City & its football team - I remember them knocking Man Utd of the League Cup as I looked at the score thinking someone on the teletext was having a wind up.
Sorry S****end, as far as I'm concerned they can enjoy their continued rivalry with Braintree Town... It made me laugh when they were singing "one team in Essex" - obviously they haven't looked at the EFL league table lately as we're the one team in Essex.
Obviously I've gone local (to me), but you can't argue on merit it should be York City. When you consider the points gap between York and Southend, in League 2 that would be the equivalent of Newport County having a shot at the play-offs against Walsall!

The way Walsall collapsed last season I think Newport would beat them tbh. I do see what you're saying though I think it would be more like Newport playing Notts County or AFC Wimbledon...
Whoever is promoted, it will be a return of an ex EFL team. We have had four seasons laughing at Southend, and I think it is finally time to renew the rivalry, and guarantee filling the stadium for at least one home game. Also if we are looking to get promoted next season, we would have a better chance playing a crap team like Southend, than a decent one like York.

And maybe they could be the first team to come up and go straight back down.

I want them to continue to whine how great their attendances are

Growing up in sarf Essex during the 60's and 70's, my first experience of watching professional football was at Roots Hall. As a 9 or 10 year old, the floodlit matches on Friday evenings were a magical experience. The only game I remember clearly was their very creditable 0-0 draw against Liverpool in the third round of the FA Cup in January 1979. The old South Bank was amazing that night. I also played a youth cup final at Roots Hall in 1976, which we won. The pitch seemed as big as Wembley. So some happy memories, and I did feel sad when they went out of the EFL. I'd love to see them back and to experience a game against them at the JCS. Two Essex clubs in the EFL is a good thing.

I don't mind S****end in the EFL as long as they're below us and we take 6 points off them.
