Let's hope we can attract a large crowd next Saturday against Fleetwood & then another HUGE game at Oldham.

Get points against both of those & I'll be happy

good point today and if we draw all remaining games that should be enough, negative way of doing it I know but we don't need to be over anxious about winning, so long as we don't lose.

I'd be happier with one win, one defeat between now and the end of the season.

Win three or four on the spin, Blunts only get a draw or two, and we'll be in a position to leapfrog 'em at our place!!!

After this season, it would be the equivalent of a cup final.

Two wins here would keep us up, job done.

I'm afraid the promotion dream is over for another year though, snookers required on that one.

As I was sure we'd avoid defeat today, I'm pretty sure we'll manage four points next weekend.

I don't see how you can call going unbeaten for the rest of the season negative, and drawing all the games would mean we've competitive and consistent in them all, I'd take that! Lol

We're gonna have good days, we're gonna have off games too but we need to make sure we pick up the points we can and stay in games as long as possible, without shooting ourselves in the foot (a la Walsall!)

So let's hope the twelfth men get behind them 100% for 90+ minutes in every home game left no matter what is happening on the park.

Going unbeaten at home for the rest of the season would be a tremendous help to our survival hopes.

Would be great but I'm not expecting that. Bare minimum has to be 2 points to stop Fleetwood and Oldham gaining ground on us, and another game removed from the equation. With 2 points, that leaves us needing 2 wins from 7 to be definitely safe. These are the 7: Port Vale (H), Barnsley (A), Sheff Utd and Doncaster (H), Swindon (A), Bury (H), Bradford (A).

I think our most likely wins are bury and Donny at home, poss vale or sheff u, then again we've been better away than at home, have we ever won at Swindon? every game really is the old treble chance as it used to appear on the pools.

If we best Fleetwood we will stay up given their other games as they will be taking points off each other

Two massive games. Hope we travel in numbers to Oldham as looking at the table that is the one we can't afford to lose really with them being in relatively decent form.

A draw against Fleetwood, Oldham and Doncaster will be good results. Crucially I stops them gaining ground on us.Doncaster have won 0 drawn 1 and lost 9 in their last 10 games!

Yes. 1984, 1981 (twice 80-81 season & 81-82 season), 1975 & 1959.

Fleetwood won't be the easy win people seem to be predicting... the only thing you can predict about our games at the minute is we are usually a good pick on the both teams to score accumulator!

Agree they are must not lose games, but not in themselves enough to keep us up (45 pts), prob still need 2 wins from the other 6 to be absolutely sure (51pts) ??
