longtimeblue Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Great fun! A much better test is your gut reaction. I was asked last night out of the blue after a few pints if we would stay up. My answer was "No". My excuse is that I very despondent after our return to Dickov tactics and league form on Saturday. I'll be going to Leyton Orient because we might just be able to stay up if we win that one - could be a very long way home! Orient away in the sunshine is a must. Thought it'd be a meaningless fixture all season, don't really want to be relying on getting a result last day but it would certainly make for an interesting day out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c.hill12 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Some of these tables bring home how near we actually are to being relegated. I think we'll be fine and i'll do my predictions now...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latics and England Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 18th with 50 points. Colchester, Scunny, Hartlepool and Pompey for the drop (Bury & Shrewsbury staying up on GD) Sheff Utd o win it with Donny going up in 2nd Swindon, Bournemouth, Coventry & Yeovil for the play-offs. I'll go for Bournemouth to go up out of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toasits Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Some of what he's on please okay - only 33% on the scores, but 100% on the results we'll be grand ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_mighty_bosh Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Bury, Hartlepool and Pompey are likely to need 5 or 6 wins to stay up, which is highly unlikely from 7 or 8 games so my guess is that 3 spaces are likely to be filled. Looking at our fixtures I see us having 5 good chances to pick up our required wins to stay up, against Shrews, Col U, Carlisle, Bury and Crawley. Usually I'd say we'd need 4 wins to keep us up but Scunthorpe's run in is a nightmare, with Bury away looking like the only game that you could realistically call them favourites in. It shows how big tonight's win was because after tonight's result it really looks possible for us to beat the teams around us. Win on Saturday and bottom four will have a lot of catching up to do.

lancy lad Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Don't normally bother with this type of stuff, but just done it as honest as I could and didn't look at the table until I had input results to the end of the season. Had us relegated 2 points behind Scunny. We needed more than a point at home to Carlisle and Colchester but I guess we already knew that. Hope I'm wrong but unless we pick up 3 or 4 points from the next 2 matches I think we are :censored:ed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laticdickovarmy Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 We need 2 wins to be safe as we would then be 6pts above and a huge goal difference making it effectivley 7pts scunny would need from their last 4 and thats taking we dont get any draws Now the problem..........where the bloody hell we are going to get them from! We must get at least 3pts this week off of Preston and Bury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If somebody offered us 3 points now for these 2 games, I would bite their hand off. 4 points would be fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pukka Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 (edited) I'd happily take a point tomorrow. If we got it we would have : 5 games to go (including 1 in hand) 1 point better off than scunny A miles better goal difference If we go down from that it would be our own fault.

rudemedic Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Puts pedantic hat on: We have 6 games left, if people agree with me that we only need 6 points to stay up, we don't need to win any games, 6 draws will be enough. If we loose then at the moment we will need 1 win. I'd obviously like us to win as many games as we can, but to say we need 6 points so need to win 1 or 2 games at the moment is not quite accurate. Takes pedantic hat off Realistically at least 1 win will be required as I can't see us going undefeated in our remaining games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristolatic Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I've tried to let my head rule my heart and ended up with this at the end of the season. Can't decide who would go up out of the playoffs; either Bournemuff or Swindle for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsslatic Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I think Scunthorpe will beat Bury so I'd say six points probably required by us to legislate for them winning a game we wouldn't expect them to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laticdickovarmy Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Realistically what is winable Crawley at home Yeovil at home (very tough) Bury away Shrews away (they are very good at home) Preston & Orient we are capabale of getting draws at Im not saying its nailed on by that is about as good a run in as you could hand pick If we cant pick up 6 points from them 6 games we dont deserve to be in this league its as cut and dry as that I think 5 pts will be enough but I want 6 and to be safe hopefully before a ball is even kicked at Orient, we sure as hell dont want favours last day of the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pukka Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I'm predicting PNE - 0 POINTS BURY - 1 POINT CRAWLEY - 3 POINTS SHREWS - 1 POINT ORIENT - 1 POINT We stay up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laticsbiffo Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I'm predicting PNE - 0 POINTS BURY - 1 POINT CRAWLEY - 3 POINTS SHREWS - 1 POINT ORIENT - 1 POINT We stay up I take it were not getting anyhting from the Yeovil home game. Probalby right. I wouldn't want to need a point away at Orient on the last day!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
