I think that'll be enough though Norseman.

Time more than anything will save us.  We've consistently proved to be incredibly poor this season, but within that we've kept a steady flow of points coming.  The teams below us have run out of time to go from excrement to better than our incredibly poor, within that picking up enough points to overtake us.

It's got to the point where I'll probably be more interested in Sutton's game on Saturday than our own. I can see a scenario where we go into the Swindon game desperate for 3 points. A couple of points for us in the next two away games would remove that danger, but I can't see us achieving that.

Ha! I think you've inadvertently hit the nail on the head here....we are sh*t but there are at least 2 teams who are more sh*t. And on that rock we will build our survival.

It’s quite likely that FGR will lose at Wrexham and Sutton at Harrogate. Even if we lose and Colchester win, it will still be

Town 43-43
Colchester 42-41
Sutton 44-39
FGR 44-36

That would leave FGR relegated and Sutton needing to win their last two games and town losing their last three….

Unless Crawley are certain to be in play offs and they rest a few players.

We get our 2nd away win of the season.

FGR will still be in it.  But they'll need a maximum return and hope Colchester fail to pick up anything for the rest of the season, including their game against us a matter of days later.   Whatever the price is on Tuesday, the draw is a great value bet.

Is there any combination of results Saturday that means Town and Colchester could play out a draw for both to retain league status?
