Mathematically we need two points. Crawley have 38 pts and get a maximum of 53 if they win ll thier games and we lose all ours.

No.

If Crawley win all their games they finish on 53 points, and Hartlepool would then have a maximum 51 points. It would require a 15 goal turnaround for them to overtake us.

Not gonna happen. We are safe.

No we don't. For Crawley to get 53 points they have to beat Hartlepool, which in turn means they can only get 51 points.

We thus need only one point to be mathematically certain of staying up.

But in reality we are safe.

It would need 2 or 3 clubs to have a really good finish to their season and us to lose all six games.

Now I am not a betting man but I would put a tenner on us staying up.

We’ve been safe all year, when you look at the clubs near the bottom, there’s a reason they’ve been down there, we should know, it’s been us before.

Had it not been for our cup run, our season would’ve ended in February…
