You would like to think we would get that easy......
You would like to think we would get that easy......There’s no point in focusing on other results. The team should make the play offs given who we’ve got to play and we have 5 games. 2 wins and a draw will be enough possibly less.
The real issue is they need to start winning games and looking like there is intent or we will likely be the poorest of the 4 teams in it.
This is the City. We don't do 'easy.'You would like to think we would get that easy......
We need 3 wins from 5 games I think
I'm off down town right now as we very speak to get this beautiful mug put on a t-shirt for me.Well after Steve Evans rant about our match and Mark Robins, who would have thought we'd end up owing our play off place to him!

With our rivals for 7th in such poor form, we have nothing to fear IMO.Well after Steve Evans rant about our match and Mark Robins, who would have thought we'd end up owing our play off place to him!

Yeah. I know there are 5 games to go, but I honestly think if we can beat Crawley we will make the playoffs and that is because I do really fancy us to beat Stevenage at home. Win those two and we're on 71 points. 71 points with three games to go.Back from Barcelona last night - Messi cleared off to Rome before I could fit him in the suitcase. Last night's results were fantastic for us - good to see that Ricky Miller had injured his hamstring so couldn't turn out for Mansfield (by all accounts he turned the tide against Crewe). Let's hope he's out for a couple of more games. Crawley is massive for us - if we could win that, I would feel confident. Glad still to be in the driving seat after the last 2 results. PUSB
But it's not just that Mansfield have only picked up 1 point out of the last 5 matches, they also have no wins in 9!Mansfield have 4 very winnable games left - however they have only picked up 1 point in the previous 5
Chesterfield A
Port Vale H
Yeovil A
Crawley H
I think Saturday is massive
We win and they lose , and the gap will grow to 4 points with a game in hand
We lose and they win, and may be the impetus they need to pip us
Swindon have
Newport A
Grimsby H
Colchester A
Accrington H
They have 4 draws and a defeat in the last 5 games
They would be doing really well to get 8 points from those games, and so 7 for us puts us ahead of them
Getting there from this position should be the easy part. We've only won 3 games in a row once this season though and while of course you don't need to beat a team in both legs of the semi final our fine margin of victory in most games is going to make those 2 high pressure games. Confident of making the play offs but not of our performance once there.With our rivals for 7th in such poor form, we have nothing to fear IMO.
Agree and we always have one duff, 'don't turn up' performance up our sleeve.Getting there from this position should be the easy part.

Wouldn't be overly frightened of Exeter or Notts County over 2 legs. Lincoln would be tough. Think Lincoln would beat either of those over 2 legs. Would like Exeter or N County at Wembley ideally - but now I'm getting a bit ahead of myself!!Getting there from this position should be the easy part.

If we make it we need the final positioning to be kind to us to give us the best chance.
If we then got to Wembley I would then very much fancy our chances in a one off.
I just hope that come the final game,Accrington don’t have the title won alreadyIt does happen, but Accrington seem relentless and unstoppable this year. I would fancy them for a draw there for sure.
They surely will have, but I don't think it will stop them.I just hope that come the final game,Accrington don’t have the title won already
I think recent results have shown that even if teams have nothing to play for,they can still cause an upset
We can’t say any game will be easier than others on the run in

They are indeed in worse form than us. Mansfield are rock bottom of the form table in 24th place. Swindon are 20th and we are 10th.
Long may it continue.

A draw at Swindon would be 2 points dropped for them, but possibly wouldn't help Swindon at all.
Swindon will surely need more than a point out of that game.
Especially not off CC4L!One thing's for sure, if we muck this up from here it'll be the worst bottle job ever, far worse than Mowbray 2016 - we'll never hear the end of it.
Not saying it doesn't happen, but I don't think Accrington Stanley are full of overpaid prima donnas. Man U and Accrington are chalk and cheese.Like when Derby beat a title winning Man U in our Premier relegation season?
Brilliant.Tonight's results is as good as retrospectively being awarded a point against Yeovil by the F.A. because they felt sorry for us.

Massive difference.
