With the return of Beavon, Willis, Stevenson and maybe Stokes there's still a little bit hope.
Next saturday is so important, 3 points, nothing less !!

Makes it all the more frustrating that we didn't beat Oldham and hold on against the Dons.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Agree 3 points versus that bunch of swaggering chavs (not that I dislike them) from Swindon is a must.

 

[Rich]

3 points every match has to be the target until we are out of the zone. Once out the odd loss and draw shall be acceptable.

 

[robbiekeane]

We're down.

So what's left and predictions:

Swindon (h) - draw - 1 point
Bury (a) - draw - 1 point
Shrewsbury (a) - win - 3 points
Bradford City (h) - lose - 0 points
Southend United (h) - draw - 1 point
MK Dons (a) - draw - 1 point
Bristol Rovers (h) - win - 3 points
Sheffield United (a) - lose - 0 points
Peterborough (h) - lose - 0 points
Charlton Athletic (h) - win - 3 points
Rochdale (a) - lose - 0 points
Walsall (h) - draw - 1 point
Scunthorpe United (a) - lose - 0 points
Port Vale (h) - win - 3 points

I make that 42 points in total which is almost certain relegation unfortunately. I think I'm also being fairly optimistic here as well. Hope the players can prove me wrong.

Well we might lose every single remaining game but I can't believe we won't make it slightly more interesting.

 

[smileycov]

Totally disagree, think we will win 7 at home and 1 or 2 away... bury and the Dons imo

 

[hotrod]

Trouble is, our results although obviously of great importance it is the other teams results which will decide our fate.

Regards.

 

[bawtryneal]

46 points and relegation.

 

[smileycov]

Maybe, but only 9 behind bury with a game in hand? We play Swindon soon also so not totally out of our hands. Long way to go but the first win was important next week is vital to get momentum going

Agree with you but a real tough ask. Let's wait and see. It will all be about momentum and confidence. Winning breeds winners.
Just hope Wembley not a distraction.

Or even draw against Oldham. Would have brought them 2 points closer than they are now.

As has been said, it is not down to us. Any winning run we can conjure up has to be in conjunction with 4 teams above us all failing.

That will be our downfall ultimately and I am not sure that it would be better to get real close but fail, rather than just know we are down much earlier on so we can blood some kids maybe for next season.

Can't think of anything worse than to just go down on goal difference, or by a single point, or one single win.

It's not as if that scenario would give us hope for next season, because we know it will pretty much be a total clear out for the next campaign.

Swindon (h) WIN
Bury (a) WIN
Shrewsbury (a) DRAW
Bradford City (h) LOSE
Southend United (h) DRAW
MK Dons (a) DRAW
Bristol Rovers (h) WIN
Sheffield United (a) LOSE
Peterborough (h) LOSE
Charlton Athletic (h) WIN
Rochdale (a) DRAW
Walsall (h) WIN
Scunthorpe United (a) LOSE
Port Vale (h) DRAW

I make that 20 points, giving us a final total of 45.

Relegated.

Well it is down to us as if we win every game we'd be mid table.

This was my prediction made a month ago when I thought we would end up with 44 pts.
I've kept updating it but the team is not living up to expectations.

[covcity4life]

I see us geyting 15 to 20 which sint enough. But thats on current form

A few wins in a row and club might play much better

 

[Otis]

Well it is down to us as if we win every game we'd be mid table.

But that is fantasy talk. In the real world we know that this team here is totally incapable of winning every match remaining.

Just need to apply common sense.
