Just the 10 games left so now its time to get thinking and do the maths after 36 games we sit 4th on 63 points we have 4 home games and 6 away games left Edit by Ron: I'll put the actual points scored against each game, and the total points 17/3 Barnet away - 3, 66 21/3 Crawley away - 3, 69 24/3 Port Vale home - 1, 70 30/3 Notts C away - 1, 71 2/4 Grimsby home -1, 74 14/4 Yeovil away - 17/4 Lincoln away - 21/4 Accrington home - 28/4 Chesterfield away - 5/5 Stevenage home -
Looking at the last 10 games the fixtures look like they have worked out well with only 3 games against teams in the top seven also no really long away trips
I've gone with 79 points but with our recent form it's hard to predict we will probably pick up points where we don't expect them and drop all 3 when we think it's a cert
My prediction after working things out in my head says we'll pick up another 18 points so 81, if we get Harriman and Stewart both fit soon i'd predict an even higher points total.
Apart from Yeovil not actually beating Exeter the results tonight couldn't have been much better for you could they. Win your games in hand and who knows what will happen. You'd have to be considering automatic as a target. Set the bar high and go for it.
17/3 Barnet away - 3 but could be a banana skin. 3 (on target for 80) 21/3 Crawley away - 0, poss 1. 3 (on target for 82) 24/3 Port Vale home - 3. 1 (on target for 80) 30/3 Notts C away - 0. 1 (on target for 81) 2/4 Grimsby home -3 14/4 Yeovil away -1 17/4 Lincoln away - 0 21/4 Accrington home - 0 28/4 Chesterfield away - 3 5/5 Stevenage home - 3 I think that makes it 80 tops. First time in my head I went 75 but I think 79/80 is more realistic What's the guesses for the other contenders?
Accrington's remaining fixtures starting Friday 30th March Mansfield away Notts C home Col U away Exeter home Yeovil home Wycombe away Newport away Lincoln home Swindon away 9 games in 36 days against most of the contenders that's a tough run in
Yep. Obviously 3rd place. I'm hoping Accrington will win all those. But it may be that at some point they don't need to win any more and give some youngsters some experience
