considering pre feb 1st id say an unbelievably good return of points, didn't realise we have only lost 4 games at the lane this season.

If Crewe lose at home to Wolves and Shrewsbury fail to win at Tranmere on Saturday we are officially safe as well![/QUOTE




We're safe now, I don't have the information to hand but 4 sides cannot get more than 55 points. I think Colchester still have Crewe and Shrewsbury to play and no combination of results gives more than 55 points.

We were sat in the Rutland before the Brentford game agreeing that we would be happy to take 5 points from the next 3 games thereby going toWembley on and unbeaten run, especially if the 3 came against Rotherham

...and so it came to pass :)

roll on Sunday and UTB
 

Crewe can still get 58 points if they win all their games (including Shrewsbury). The two teams above them (Carlisle and Tranmere can also get 61 ponts). So I stand by my original statement!

Which would mean Colchester can only get 55 points.

I'm sorry but you are wrong, we are safe.

Crewe still have Colchester to play yes. If they were both to draw that game then they would both be on 56, given they both win their remaining games. Agree there would need to be a massive turnaround in goal difference but still stick by original statement :)

Ha ha, I can just about give you this !

So if Crewe and Colchester win all their remaining games except when they play each other and draw.

And United lose their 5 remaining games by say 2-0 in each game, and Crewe win their 4 games by 5-0 at least, this is the one instance where we could still go down (not withstanding that Oldham, Carlisle, Tranny and Shrewsbury could lose vital points, they have to win virtually every game as well).

I think we can agree we can both stop worrying about relegation :).

Now the Rotherham game is out of the way, I just hope we have a Blades side that turns up for Wembley

It's amazing where Cloughie has taken us since the dark days of Weir.

Never ever underestimate the capability of Sheffield United to seize relegation from a position of seeming absolute safety...

Correct, so my original statement still stands!! :) So there we go, officially safe on Saturday, victory on Sunday. Great weekend. Now where's Mrs Mobile......
 
No, seriously Highbury, I know you dislike NC, what did you mean in your OP?

Let me help you. I think 5 points is just about OK, nothing more. We actually deserved 3 points more, but thats life.

What do you think?
