It's do-able. Things are closing up again, but we have no room for a dodgy patch. Every game is must win now. I still think play-offs is more realistic, but if we can get the injured lads back and start using the squad effectively then we definitely have a chance.....
Beating the teams around us would help our cause ... ... and we know, for a fact, that we can beat them..
Lincoln (h) Peterborough (a) Hull (a) Portsmouth (a) These are all MASSIVE games.10 points from them and we are definitely in the mix
Always said if we can get in the mix it's on. Totally different game when it's the business end of the season.
Following last night's results, our fate is in our own hands, if we win all our games from now on, the lowest we can finish us sixth. If we win all our games from now on I expect us to be much higher than sixth.

I promise not to mention this again but I'd invite everyone to look at the contribution and attitude from O'Brien. He links things up with quick clever passes, fights for the ball and never lets his head drop. Parkinson must've demoralised the lad by playing Grigg and Graham ahead of him, both in the shameful Mansfield defeat. He's obviously a 'confidence player' which Johnson must have recognised. If he keeps improving, at this rate, he could a real asset. (Have to say though, I wasn't impressed with Wyke's reaction when O'Brien scored.)
He is so good, the commentator keeps thinking he is in two places at once: No 10 and No. 11 ....Gooch O'Brien. I like him, he has a decent touch for a big lad, and good he'll compete with Charlie for goals...
from what i have seen of him on the pitch, he is a 'better altidore', we could never fault josy's work rate just his total lack of goals....AOB is contributing goals as well as an excellent work rate, now he is also getting some games you can see he is getting a better understanding with his team mates as well. LJ seems to have given the whole team a confidence boost, no longer do they wander half arsed around the pitch with heads held low, every single one is up for the fight and by christ have we missed that!!
I'm not surprised, there barely was one and I didn't notice at the time as I was distracted by a loud screaming noise. It was weird tbh, didn't celebrate when it went in. Then he strolls towards O'Brien while the other players are mobbing him, congratulates other players and ignores O'Brien. He walks off then turns back and shakes hands but without much enthusiasm ... ... looked like he'd remembered LJ had said all the players should celebrate goals.
Watching it back, I cant see much wrong tbh. He ran after AoB and congratulated him along with the other players.
Has Grayson been eating 'shrooms again? No, I'm wrong. He used his flip charts to do little animations of someone playing football and scoring goal to demonstrate to his players. But has got himself mixed up.
