3 points a head of Sutton and 4 points ahead of Port Vale both have better GD than us Sutton have a game in hand and could draw level and Port Vale have 2 in hand and could pass us
Yep we’re now in the playoffs and just 2 points from the autos. It’s congested up there and it’s all to play for. A very professional performance tonight - we got the goal then controlled the game - Colchester didn’t have a single shot for the last half hour of the game. Another clean sheet and an excellent performance from Coutts and Finley protecting the defence. UTG!
Away to Northampton next who won away and then away to Carlisle who were beaten by Newport 3 of the top 4 to play 2 away Northampton and Tranmere and FGR at home we also have Port Vale away if we could win those 4 I would make us favourites to get promoted
Excellent job done tonight, Colchester are no mugs and have done very well lately, so this was always going to be tough. From the last 10 games, that's 3 points in the bag, 27 to go! We can only take things one game at a time, so Northampton away next which certainly wont be easy.but we might just surprise them!
Hartlepool drawing 1-1 at Newport at half time. Be dead handy for us if Pool can grab a winner 2nd half.
Unbelievable! The second I finished typing that, Hartlepool score a second on the stroke of half time. 2-1 now.
All over, Newport 2 - 3 Hartlepool, excellent result for us, and would make 3 points tomorrow even more valuable.
Today's line up v Northampton 4 -1-4-1 formation according to I follow Belshaw, Hoole, Anderton, Taylor, Connolly, Coutts (c) H Anderson, Finley, Evans, E Anderson, Collins Subs Ward, T Clarke, Harries, Whelan, L Clarke, Loft, Saunders. Harry Anderson Scores for Rovers 0 - 1 1st minute 3rd place on GD at the moment
Today's ideal scenario for us would be: Bradford to beat Port Vale, Crawley to beat Swindon, Oldham to beat Exeter, Sutton and Tranmere to draw and Rovers to obviously win at Northampton. At present, 2 out of the 5 games are going for us. Watch this space!!
Sutton leading Tranmere 1 - 0 Peter Abimbola replaces Tyler Magloire 19th minute Crawley beating Swindon 1 - 0 If anybody is listening to this on the radio can they post how much extra time will be played as I Follow don't bother 4 minutes extra according to Rovers twitter HT Rovers 1 - 0 up Exeter leading 1 - 0
Swindon 1 - 1 v Crawley Aaron McGowan first player to be booked 61st minute Finley yellow carded 68th minute Tranmere have now scored 1 - 1 Yellow cards coming fast and thick now Paul Lewis 71st minute
Substitution Chanka Zimba replaces Peter Abimbola Paul Coutts yellow carded 75th minute Crawley have a second 2 - 1 Swindon Connolly yellow carded 81st minute Bez Lubala replaces Sam Hoskins 84th minute Yellow cards Connor Taylor 91st minute and Mitchell Pinnock 92nd minute Defended the lead for 101 minutes away to a side near the top great performance great result 4th in the table on GD NO yellow cards until the 61st minute only to be followed by a further 6 strange game
Wow! Thought this game would never end! To score in the 1st minute, then stay 1-0 up till the final whistle in the 97th min was nerve jangling! Still, 3 results out of 5 went our way today, so no complaints, and let's be fair, to grind a result out like we have today is the mark of a very good team with the right attitude who deserve promotion. Onwards and upwards we go.
Wouldn't have expected that to have happened a few months ago, we would have been waiting for the equaliser and the winner
