Going for a Burton

As Aldershot close in on a place back in the Football League, the race for the play off spot is getting closer. The play offs always seem a bit unfair, as it is possible for a side that is far behind another team to be promoted. It's that time of the year when the league concerned turns into a mini-cup competition. This year Burton Albion could go into Division 2 via the play-offs. Burton Albion could be the fourth Burton team to play in the League, although the most recent was Burton United in 1907. Burton Swifts and Burton Wanderers were even longer ago. The four that seem to be set for the play offs are Torquay United, Stevenage Town, Burton Albion and Cambridge United - with Exeter City looking to make the cut. Will it be a new team or one of the more recent Football League members? FootballCynic is betting on Burton Albion.
