Let’s hope Morecambe lose Tuesday then!  
That's not what Lew's Lover said though - let's hope they don't win...! If they draw they are not safe from Barnet that is the key thing. Two draws for Morecambe in their next two games and we are safe...

If Morecambe win on Tuesday then we are still fretting big time because we need two points to be safe. I can't see Barnet failing to beat Chesterfield, Martin Allen has got them scoring goals and we really need Morecambe scrapping with them next Saturday. Beating Notts is a massive ask, and Forest Green would love to send us down!

I think the assumption is they will win their last game...

Barnet's game v Chesterfield is not "a given".  No game is.  Chesterfield players will want to be kept on and also they may play better now the pressure is off them.

I think it will all be sorted next Saturday.  Draws.


If they saw that interview with their director the other day, they might not want to stay on with the prospect of the budget being taken down from £2.5m to £1m.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Morecombe could be the ones to go down. If they lose to Cambridge on Tuesday then I will consider Town to be safe

Latest relegation odds are looking good for us;

Chesterfield - closed book
Barnet - 1/12
Morecambe - 10-1
Grimsby - 14-1
Vgr- 50-1

Not long ago we were around evens (or worse) to go down.

Jolley has done a great job steadying the ship and grinding out the results.

I'm feeling a lot more relaxed tonight....massive 3 points....should be enough to keep us up.

We need Cambridge not to lose on Tuesday night at Morecombe otherwise Barnet's last 2 games will be versus sides with nothing to play for.

So far so good but I'm not celebrating yet!
I'll breathe a lot more easily if Cambridge beat Morecambe on Tuesday because then they are really in the mix. A win or draw for them in their following game against Barnet and we're safe whilst a worst case scenario of defeat in that game would leave them needing at least a draw in their tough looking last game away to Coventry if we were to lose our last 2.. A shame Chesterfield didn't get at least a draw today or Forest Green would have been in the mire too.

There are more ways to stay up than there are to go down now. A couple of games ago it was the opposite.

The only thing I can say is it would hurt a lot more if we went down now. Hartlepool thought they had escaped last year and the way they ended up relegated must have been gut-wrenching. People would have been jumping off high buildings if there were any in Hartlepool.
