The run for 2nd spot

[Pedro Verde]

one of my first memories is beating Doncaster 9-0 in a county cup game

Thought that was Barnsley we beat 9-0

All L1 games are winnable but nobody wins them all

It'll be games like Barnsley, Chesterfield, Bradford, Donny and Scunthorpe that end our hopes.
Local-ish derby games, furious pace, hard tackling, big support and them wanting it more all spells disaster for United.

 

[Darren]

Exactly the point I was going to make. We have to play them twice and we always fook it up against Scunny.

We are undefeated in our last 4 games against them (or 5 if you include the JPT game last season).

I think having derbies at the end of the season will help keep up the intensity. It's good to have some 'big' games leading in the playoffs, if we fail for auto.

hy was it thrown away if we can still make it

Statistically we can still make it ...... however, practically its really very unlikely unless Swindon, MKD & Preston ALL go into meltdown and have a period like we had in Oct / Nov / Dec. I'm just being realistic ..... that doesn't mean I like missing out. I'm bloody gutted to be stuck in this agricultural Division where we get kicked in the air every week !!!

Considering all matches start 0-0 arent they all winnable? We could play real Madrid next, or Barcelona or Fulchester United. They're all winnable. That's the whole point of football, isn't it?

The day we play fulchester will be the day we reach our footballing accolade!!!

 

[grafikhaus]

...and Rochdale next Tuesday.

I love your enthusiasm ....... I've been watching this lot too long to be so optimistic, however, if we do happen to achieve the (nearly) impossible, I promise to put down my celebratory 2 gallon ale pack for long enough to offer a full and frank apology for being so damned sceptical !!!

Give it up lads.

 

[Dkc]

When was the last time we "came up on the rails" with a successful late challenge for promotion?

On the other hand, we've made successful late runs for relegation numerous times

 

[Ted Danson]

Didn't think we were allowed to put fixtures on here modmins?

dont think it will cause any problems anymore, they changed the law regarding fixtures so you are allowed to show them on your site now without getting sued.

 

[Nade]

Didn't think we were allowed to put fixtures on here modmins?

Why not?

 

[blade too long]

it used to illegal to post fixtures , but it no longer is

 

[blade too long]

the remaining games , if you look up on head to head just on last league meetings if we get same results , we win 11 draw 3 and lose 2
so got 36 points out of last time played
this gives us 84 points ,
