Blackpool Match

That'll play havoc with somebody's statistics!

How long before the word "DISGRACEFUL" appears?

I'll go for 1 hour 43 minutes from now :D

:theband:
 
To be fair, our friend is only usually upset when it's off because of a waterlogged pitch - he may forgive us a frozen one :rolleyes::D
 
Games in hand mounting up now :(

Let's hope for some favourable results today :)

Only game - so far - to be called off in our League......


:) :) :)
 
Whilst staying up was always MY aim, we're not 100% out of the play off picture, yet. But I think that if we dont get 9 out the next 9 then we can say ta ta to that little dream.

at least we have gone another week undefeated in the league.

Equally, we continued our failure to score !
I’d take 5th from bottom now. Yesterday saw Plymouth, Rochdale and Bristol with strong 3 points, whilst Bradford , Gillingham and Oxford all had resilient away draws. Only Shrewsbury continued their free fall.

We need something away next week, if not and a loss on the following Friday to Sunderland and we “are in it”.
Has anyone seen our April fixtures !!
 
It was on club twitter 9.10am with inspection due at 9am, looked like a very easy decision.

20/1 with two bookies to get relegated, but some give as little as 8/1. Still suggests it is unlikely.
 
If we are looking at it as the need for safety then 50pts will do it so 14 required from 18 games.
Surely cant be a problem.
 
just 5 more wins. we,ll probably get an unexpected away win like all teams do plus 4 others. if we do not then we really deserve to go down.

The pessimist in me thinks we might need a couple more than 50. Only because whilst Wimbledon and maybe one other (say Shrewsbury at this point) may fail to go on a run and be stranded, I think the others have either already started theirs ( Plymouth / Bradford?) or about to start a run whereas if we don’t start finding the net then we are not going to pick up wins.

When you look at 20th-placed finishes: in 18 of the last 20 seasons, the teams who finished in 20th had either 50, 51 or 52 points: a really narrow spread.
The two exceptions were both lower: Oxford stayed up with 45 points in 1999/00 and Northampton survived with 49 in 2001/02.
I’m not scare mongering, I just think our form coupled with a build up of games could see us continue to slip and I’m more interested in the Oxford, Rochdale and Shrews than those currently just one place behind.
Our last game is Portsmouth away, who will be fighting for automatic, we have Luton, Sunderland who won’t be “on the beach” in April and then some big 6 pointers with the bottom.

Just sayin !
