I wish I could be there but sadly, it is impossible this weekend. However, I'll be there in spirit and following on Sky Sports.

Oggy has it exactly right - beat Macclesfield by any score and it should be all over.

The thing that Stanley have over Macclesfield, Boston and Wrexham is a vastly superior goal difference - 11 goals better than Macclesfield, 13 better than Wrexham and 17 better than Boston.We cannot rely on Torquay beating Boston on Saturday (though they might do that) - and Walsall slipped up against Bury at home last Saturday in a big surprise. Whilst the Saddlers might well bounce back and thrash Wrexham (which would ease the pressure on us), we cannot count on that either, though Walsall have the incentive of still being in the running for the title (should Hartlepool lose at Rochdale, which is a distinct possibility in Rochdale's present form).

One thing we do know is that either Boston or Wrexham will drop at least two points in their final game of the season because they play one another

, and we don't want to be playing MK Dons knowing that we have to win to stay up !

Knowing Boston's record for somehow managing to win matches when all around them is collapsing financially, I would not be at all surprised to see them stay up, with wins over both Torquay and Wrexham and take a 10 point hit next season, though personally, I want to see the cheating ba****ds relegated this season and my favourites to go down would be Macclesfield. I wonder how Paul Ince is feeling now ?

So it is simple - a win over Macclesfield and we will stay up !!!
