    Yeah, I've already been on Stevenage's forum (saddo lol) and they're already watching the results elsewhere - ours and Stockport last night.

    Everybody watching each other, no doubt, but like you say, it's more important what we do.

    I don't think many are grumbling at getting a point - it was the performance. We did defend well so that is something but on the rest of the field we were terrible.

    If we continue to put in performances like that (and Colchester) we can forget about promotion.

    Stevenage can look at other results as currently they are in 3rd. We are chasing. If we draw or lose they is a less game to play with not much gain.

    If we get into 3rd place then yes we can start looking behind us.

    Too right. Current form will see us get another 26 points and that will be enough.

    Can't see it being on telly with a 12.30 KO. They will show some sort of roving programme with reporters at every applicable ground.

    I'm in Manchester on 29th April, when I could have been with family in Northampton and got hospitality tickets. In my life, I've never missed being at a match where we have been promoted, and have a very nasty feeling this will be the first and we will win at Northampton to get an automatic spot.

    Yes a free kick from Knowles and nobody picked up the runner advancing on a potential spill from Lewis!

    In the past few seasons they've been live at one or two grounds and show key moments in the games that matter for final day. I remember Morecambe and Bolton both having their final league games live a few years back and when Hartlepool went down they had two games live. If we have an automatic spot to play for, makes sense to show us as from the looks of things relegation will be well sown up by then so should just be top places to show.

    I'd be surprised if Sky don't pick a game from League 2, there will be nothing clashing with it and it's looking like a lot will be to play for on the last day. They've got some potentially big last day fixtures with something on it for both sides:
    - Barrow vs Stevenage
    - Us vs Orient
    - Harrogate vs Rochdale
    - Stockport vs Hartlepool
    - Sutton vs Carlisle
    - Swindon vs Crawley

    We'll see. We weren't getting anything against Stevenage or Colchester, but came out with a full haul.

    But it's not about performances this stage of the season as those two results showed a return of 4 points from the two games 3 points at home 1 point away I'd suggest that sort of form would get us an auto place.
    I don't have a problem with that sort of return for the rest of the season, plus as you suggest we are looking a good unit at the back

    For clarity, I don’t castigate individuals as everyone has different reasons for non attendance on any given matchday.
    I do question the fanbase as a whole though that only 3% of it (20k) has the means and motive.
    Debate over, move on….

    We are where we are and a point away against a team that ship very little is a good one. Unfortunately we just know that after Newport we will struggle to beat Hartlepool etc in our home games. Last nights tactics have brought us success away this season at home they work much less well and I don’t think Hughes will change to a more positive mindset it’s not in his DNA

    Did I say you castigated individuals, you've more faces than the Town Hall clock, you regularly make assumptions that when we get an away following that you think isn't good enough you have a pop about fellow fans, even mentioning away games like Villa, debate over move on.....

    Sorry. I suspect you are correct.
