....of results going for us on Tuesday night?

TUESDAY 12TH FEBRUARY
Crewe Alexandra v Carlisle United
Newport County v Milton Keynes Dons
Oldham Athletic v Yeovil Town
Swindon Town v Forest Green Rovers

Four away wins needed to keep us 12th.

It's so unlikely that I think I will have an accy on it.  (Just got 86.71/1 on Bet 365)


If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.

I'd think longer term than 12th. Wins for BFS, Carlisle and FGR would put them further ahead of us. 3 draws and a win for Yeovil* would do nicely as it minimises the total points for all competitors.

* if the Grimsby Reaper has struck the Glovers could be on for the New Manager Bounce.


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.

I'd rather Carlisle,n fgr and mk lose since we now look more likely to make the play offs than get relegated.

Not bothered about Newport, Oldham and Swindon - I expect us to finish above them by end of season.

Would much rather see MK Dons, Carlisle and FGR lose and be more catchable.  

Draws would be even better!

It’s amazing how MK Dons have fallen off the pace.

Losing to Macclesfield in jan is looking like it could be a big loss for Town.  3 more points and we’d be really getting excited now.

That 6 game losing streak is even more disappointing. If we strung a couple of wins together in that spell or dare I say it 3 we would all be getting nosebleeds!

What possesses people to put red crosses on completely non controversial posts?

Oldham and Newport both have 2 games in hand, Swindon and Crewe 1. Wins mean they all go above us. In fact draws mean Swindon, Oldham and Newport go above us, with the Latics and Newport still having a game in hand each. So any ground we gain on Carlisle, FGR and BFS is lost to the others.

Draws mean we still lose a bit of ground but not as bad as wins. So if you're looking up, draws are what serve our interest best, apart from a win for Yeovil against Oldham.

Interesting set of fixtures tonight especially with the positions of us and them in the League table ;

Town 11th

Swindon 12th v FGR
Newport 13th v MK
Oldham 14th v Yeovil
Crewe 15th v Carlisle

3 draws and a Yeovil win be ideal, but we all know that wont happen  

Still all eyes on Saturday v Cheltenham, which is a VERY winnable game, especially after our 3 wins in a row and much improved home form,

Last time we won four was to end December and if it wasn't for a defeat to Cheltenham away we would of ended the year 8 league games unbeaten
