Looking at the table after last night's games:

Wrexham must either win 3 and draw 3 games, or win 4 out of seven to finish above us, and IF we beat them at their gaff then they will have to win 5 out of the remaining 6

Mansfield need to make up 8 points on us in six games, which could be 1 win and 5 draws, 2 wins and 2 draws or 3 wins. However IF we beat Wrexham then Mansfield will need 11 points to overtake us, meaning they would need 4 wins or 3 wins and 2 draws out of six.

Mansfield's remaining games are:
Barnet(h), Stockport(a), Macclesfield(a), Shrewsbury(h), Rotherham(h), Dagenham(a)

Based on this I reckon we only need to beat Wrexham to guarantee league 2 status. Of course, a win on Friday will make it a whole lot easier. But we needent get down if it doesn't go our way!
