The League Paper

In Sunday’s Football League Paper

On a busy Friday and Saturday of Football League action, we’ll be across every game in League One and Two on a packed weekend.

Sunderland also take on Millwall on the Championship, and that will be one of our star games in the paper, with Derby vs Sheffield Wednesday taking the honour from League One and Leyton Orient vs Bradford for League Two.

Among our features, Wigan legend Emmerson Boyce gives us his take on the Latics’ appointment of former Arsenal star Kolo Toure.

Accrington Stanley manager on that FA Cup draw against Boreham Wood – and the financial importance of the competition.

Peterborough defender Nathan Thompson reckons a scrappy away win could end their recent bout of travel sickness and inspire an upturn in fortunes on the road.

Defender Matt Pennington believes Shrewsbury can start reproducing their FA Cup form in League One.

And our Player Profile sees Sheffield Wednesday talisman Barry Bannan under the microscope.

Our guest columnist Adam Virgo says Stoke’s Australia international Harry Souttar would walk into any team in the Championship.

And last (but never least), our resident expert Chris Dunlavy looks at loyalty in football in the aftermath of Mick Beale’s decision to quit QPR for Rangers.
