    Udoh scored again for Shrewsbury. The sort of player I would like us to go for in the summer, whichever division we are in.

    I knew it was getting tight and it's proven to be so. Not sure we will have what it takes to get into the pkay offs.

    Neil is going to have to find a way to win more games than has been the case so far. It is wins now, not draws, that are needed. Defensively we are stronger, but at the same time we have become easier to defend against. It is going to be tight like you say 4 or 5 wins from 7 needed which would be an uptick in form and will require us to find better goalscoring form. Not impossible...

    Win all our games and we'll be in the play offs. Lose a couple and we are relying on others. Games at Plymouth and Oxford are massive now

    2 from 4 for me. Ipswich are too far adrift. Oxford away is our cup final win that and get a point at Plymouth the other games should take care of themselves. Rotherham being postponed could have done us a massive favour as they may already be up when we play them. I think we will aneak into the playoffs but whether we can do anything in them is a mystery

    I have said this for ages. People continually saying the draw is a good result. It's not. The big 3 needed each game now.

    It could all come down to our game at Oxford. Do we have the balls to try and win it? Oxford will be happy with a draw

    We should have beaten Charlton and Lincoln. If Stewart & Clarke had taken their chances we would have. Not sure the manager can do anything about that

    I'm gonna be sh****ng bricks for the next seven games now. That table is tight and I think that Plymouth have a really difficult run in so may wobble. One other team will bottle it as well. And by that I don't mean it can't be us. I do take hope in the fact that we are improving again and some of the newer lads (Roberts, Clarke, Hume) are getting up to speed, as well as some of the seasoned pros almost back. We could have 10 more games which is still a lot. KTF and FTM

    Agreed. A squad of our quality should constantly be aiming for 3 points. Only time a draw is a good result is if you level with the last kick of the game.

    Absolutely rancid that. Hoping we finish 6th man. We have no divine right to be promoted, but dear me. Absolutely pathetic. Still think it's a Sunderland V MK Dons final for the play offs like.

    I agree, it will be close for us to sneak into the playoffs imo. But I definitely think they are dragging us to Wembley.
