Yep, but the excitement is still there because if the match ups if our rivals this Good Friday.
This is the City though. You just watch everyone else do us a favour and then us not turn up and lose. Ha!!
Yep, but the excitement is still there because if the match ups if our rivals this Good Friday.I have to keep calming myself down by remembering that we need to win 2 more than Wycombe while still overtaking Exeter and Notts County. Still a hell of a lot to do, we've just had a very good weekend.
But then we don't have to be 3rd by Monday.Other teams will win and momentum is an irrelevance - in the end if we managed to beat Newport and Notts county beat Wycombe there would be a realistic chance the club will be 3rd or 4th by Monday. The only team with momentum would be us.
But then we don't have to be 3rd by Monday.
We only need to make sure we are 3rd by the end of the game on Saturday May 5th.
If Wycombe get the draw at County and win all bar one of their remaining games (6)?But then we don't have to be 3rd by Monday.

If we lose on Friday I would say that could be pretty much game over.What if we lost on Friday would you be happy with a 5 point gap to close?
We can can't we?If Wycombe get the draw at County and win all bar one of their remaining games (6)?
Can we catch them ?
Yeah, me too.The Notts county game away is huge, a game we need to treat like a cup final although I would take the draw
It's always a God Easter isn't it?Results wise this has almost been a perfect weekend now it’s down to us to have a god Easter no less than 4 points please
Fantistic result and weekend of results.Fantastic result for us.
If we lose on Friday I would say that could be pretty much game over.
As you said the other day, all we need to do is keep winning ourselves.
Hoping we don't lose any now until the end of the season, but have predicted 1 defeat.
Would be concerned if that 1 defeat was in our very next match.
No, I don't think it is. I just said it could be.Cmon Otis. It’s not all over if we lose Friday. We can afford to lose 1 possibly 2 more max out of 8 left.
and that’s it if we want third.
Part of me would take 4 points from Easter Weekend. To keep the pressure firmly on the 2/3 above and below us.
I would definitely take 4 points right now.Cmon Otis. It’s not all over if we lose Friday. We can afford to lose 1 possibly 2 more max out of 8 left.

I think we will lose one at least but agree if we lose two we won’t get thirdNo, I don't think it is. I just said it could be.
I was having this debate with a few fans including my son.I would definitely take 4 points right now.
If this played out they'd get to 86 points with 25 wins, the only way we'd overcome that is either with 8 wins or 7 wins and 1 draw, same points but taking third on more wins. If they lose on Friday we can afford just one defeat!If Wycombe get the draw at County and win all bar one of their remaining games (6)?
Can we catch them ?

Fair play to Wycombe if they win 5 of last 6. Then they deserve it.If this played out they'd get to 86 points with 25 wins, the only way we'd overcome that is either with 8 wins or 7 wins and 1 draw, same points but taking third on more wins. If they lose on Friday we can afford just one defeat!
They wouldn't If they take nothing on Friday and we win 7.Fair play to Wycombe if they win 5 of last 6. Then they deserve it.
Yeah, that's my gut feeling. Think we can only afford 1 defeat.I think we will lose one at least but agree if we lose two we won’t get third
Yeah. Smiley said the other day that we could afford to lose against Notts County. Have to say I disagree on that.If we are to lose 1/2 games. At all costs this must not happen vs Notts or Lincoln. These are must not lose games.
Having a blip of losing one maybe two should come vs Yeovil or Stevenage etc.
Hoping we lose none though!
Yeah fair point but I think if we can draw against the teams in and around us, maybe sneak a win then we have a chance.It’s not just about not losing though. We may not lose another game and still not make Autos. Ie win 4 Draw 4.
Mansfield have lost fewest games. But have drawn the most. That’s their downfall this season. They may not make play offs with fewest defeats in league.
6 wins 2 defeats is much better than 4 wins and 4 draws.
Sounds great! Bring it on!!!If this played out they'd get to 86 points with 25 wins, the only way we'd overcome that is either with 8 wins or 7 wins and 1 draw, same points but taking third on more wins. If they lose on Friday we can afford just one defeat!
Objectively how many games do we see Wycombe losing and their final points tally ?
I can only see two If one was to come on Friday it may just induce another.
Fact is there will be so many twists and turns on weekly basis. We may also stumble on a result here and there no doubt we will too when we are expected to win. It’s the natur3 of this league.
But overall. So what if we lose and Friday and Wycombe win and the gap becomes 9 points. I won’t be giving up hope as we have a game in hand. And if we get back to back wins after a loss then I’d be backing Wycombe to be dropping points.
We don’t want to be sitting in third place now. We want to be sitting there after The Morecambe game
Right, they have...
Notts County away
Then.... Sorry for being lazy....

And then Stevenage at home.
Yep. The rust can set in. They miss out because Lincoln are in the Checkatrade final.Clutching at straws, but surely an almost 2 week break in April can’t be good. Nothing beats match practice. As we found we weren’t great vs Barnet after a little break.
