    Atcham,
    As always I admire your optimism but one swallow does not make a summer and we need to see some good results put together before getting carried away. Coventry away is a tough assignment (especially now Callum Wilson is back fit) and I think we will do well to get a point. I will be there in the hope of another away day like Saturday though I do not expect us to score seven as we did the last time I was at Sixfields.

    But if we beat Bristol city that puts pressure on them to beat other teams that might be around us at the end of the season :D

    Oh and the bumkins down the road from you who play in what will possibly be isle three of the frozen section of a new Sainsburys would love to play against you in league 2 ;)

    We intend to whoop City's behind, but whether it happens will be another thing.

    Here's the points per game table, showing how League One will finish if all teams carry on their current PPG ratios!

    City staying up and you would be joining us and wickham in league 2!

    Bit of a pointless table, really, as it's essentially the current table but without any games in hand. Is there some kind of weighting attached to recent form? Does it factor in teams played? I can say with some confidence that Sheffield United finishing below Coventry would be a major surprise. Saying that, though, it'll probably end up being bang on.

    you are correct. it is a pointless table. injuries and suspensions top key players would effect im sure someones form meaning it will effect the above table. i seen it on twitter and thought i share it. i like seeing projected tables and stats based on certain info then look back at the end to compare. like i cant believe rovers have the 3rd or 4th best home record this season in league 2 and the 4th best defensive record and lost the same about of games as fleetwood are who 6th while we struggle near the bottom. our away form is so bad!! not scoring enough goals an issue too. seeing stats and tables you can pin point where the issues are. i like this sort of stuff <ok>

    hi AJ here, interesting league table, if you like aesops fables. town must take 3 points on saturday, 1st of all we have to find a way of stopping sam baldock from scoring. if we fail to beat city, we could be in another promo challenge in a foreign league next season

    we must aim for 50 points, anything less and it is jelly on the plate and goodnight irene time if they can stay in the league. AJ is hoping we stay up but our lads may not have too much say in it.

    well its pancake day and AJ has not had a crepe today, guinness and baked beans tonight!

    off now to warm up city's boards, and implore gasheads to stay up in case we need 6 points next season.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm a statto too. It's just it has a negative projection for us so I'll rubbish its credibility!

    85% fat free or 15% fat - statistics are wonderful devices for manipulation!

    Lenny was there a female D&T teacher at your old school? Possibly taught Graphics and Resistant Materials. I saw an advert for Maternity cover a while back.

    There was, her name escapes me though. Didn't have anything as fancy as graphics but she did RM and possibly electronics. Didn't take either of them at GCSE, though, so I never had her as a teacher. Textiles teacher, which comes under the broad DT umbrella, was my form tutor and a wonderful woman. She's left now, though, and her youngest is only a bit younger than me, so I doubt it was her!

    stand by for copious amounts of excrement, banter and other nasties to rain down on the gas and wobblers to soften you up for 12 points next season, in case. hell hath no fury like wounded shrew, as wolves may find out as their rear end comes apart at the seams next saturday.
