The Final games (with Poll)

12 points from our last 4 games… all the rest on paper look tough.

 

6 points less I'd have us at 50/50 to go down with 12 games to go. As it is I can see Hughes getting the points needed although another couple of poor results and we could be nervously looking over our shoulder.

 

All well and good but if we need 52 it means one of Carlisle or Scunny have got 20 points from 12 games. That's not going to happen. 46 will keep us up, and I reckon we will win on Saturday, draw at Forest Green and then pick up at least a point a match in the last 10.

 

Why Carlisle?

They have 13 games left, are 19th, and have just won 2 in a row.

Stevenage look more likely to finish below Carlisle as it stands, with poor form and fewer games remaining.

The situation at the bottom is more fluid than you appear to think?

 

15 points from remaining matches.

Will finish nearer to play offs than relegation.

 

Recently we've not done very well on long away trips so I'm discounting at least 3 of those 12, maybe 4 including Hartlepool.

We need 3 wins from the other 8. Mathematically we should manage it. We might need a few Hughes rants to get there though.

 

We know Rod! We watch and listen every match! Please don't remind us!!

 

Ok, not Carlisle who I admit I hadn't realised had pulled up, but (as Paul weller would say) the bottom two will 'absolutely, categorically, f**King' not involve Bradford City. It will be two any of the teams from Leyton Orient downwards.

I would stake my life on us getting 50 points plus.

 

My concern would be going into the final half a dozen games needing points for safety with a squad half of which will be aware they are not going to be here next season.

IMPO we need to get the required points in the next 6 games arguably against the stronger opponents.

Hopefully the new manager factor and players wanting to impress will get us over the line. If the points don't come in that spell I am not sure how much up for the fight they will be in the final run in.

 

I’m still thinking returning players will get us across the line without too much late season anxiety.

 

This city team couldnt fight its way out a paper bag..

Going down.

 

i would suggest that 11 points from 12 matches comes in at 0.916 points per game instead of 1.27

 

You don't think Sutton away looks tough?.

 

Rubbish

 

You Madam are the biggest of drama Queens.

 

So much so, I suspect he has a regular slot in The Sun on SUnbridge Road.

 

A point a match in the last ten, yet we’ve lost four in a row. I admire your optimism! I’m just hoping the new manager bounce, coupled with returning players, gets us over the line.
