Our remaining March fixtures are pretty tough, all against teams in the top 7:-
MKD Home Gillingham away Wrexham Home Barrow away
On paper we should lose the lot, but I don't think we will. I think we will win one of the home games and maybe get a draw from one of the away games. So 4 points. Anything beyond that would be outstanding.
Just for fun lets see what the others have coming
Colchester:-
Doncaster Home Walsall Home Mansfield Away Newport Home.
I can see them getting six points from that lot.
FGR:-
Bradford away Sutton Home Doncaster away Stockport Home
They might get 5 points from those games.
Sutton
Crewe away FGR Away Accrington Home Salford away
I'll be kind and say they might get 3 points.
So by end march I am predicting:-
Town on 39 Colchester 38 FGR 35 Sutton 30
The good news is that our April fixtures are somewhat kinder, so if we still have a cushion at the end of March we should be in good shape. But I think we definitely need to win one of our next four games to stand any chance of that happening.

In form guide, Colchester have won once this year, Doncaster lost once in their last 8, Walsall have won 5 of their last 6, Mansfield won 6 of their last 8. I think giving Colchester 6 points is extremely generous.

If we keep grinding away I think more points will be accumulated than people think .
3 or 4 from the next 4 would be acceptable , that would only leave us needing 7 points , probably 10 maximum from the last 7 games .
I sort of get the feeling it will go down to the last few games and we need to make sure we are safe before the last game or two . I don't want to be going to Crawley needing a result - we have been in that position before .
Big game on Tuesday to find a win now it would really take the pressure off somewhat .
I think Salford could be dragged back into it if they continue to lose a few , we have 2 games in hand on them as do Colchester .

All scenarios on the fishy calculator that I've put in honestly, have got Sutton and Colchester going down with us above forest green.

2 points extra yesterday would’ve probably seen us just about comfortable, if we pick up an unlikely win on Tuesday you’d imagine we have a large cushion with only 10 games left (9 for FGR).
Colchester are bang in bother though, dragging them into the battle was absolutely vital & hopefully this year is the tear their luck runs out.

I think there’s quite a bit more nervousness & possibly some more drama to endure. That said the lads look bang up for the fight so I reckon we’ll be ok.
If the staff use yesterday right it will absolutely galvanise the players.

That’s given me IBS
Don't want stand next to you at the Gillingham game , My quote " Gives me the Willies!" The thought of our next four matches as far as nerves go.
