Still 7th but which teams do we now think are the biggest threat to our chances of finishing in 7th place?
At this time of the season more than ever it is near impossible to predict results. Prior to today Swindon were a real threat but losing at home to Crewe leaves them with a potential final points total of only 64 so they are no longer a threat.
Colchester final potential points total 70. However their two remaining games are home to MK Dons and away to Lincoln so likely total 64 points.
Carlisle despite losing today are still a threat final potential points total 70. Last two games home to Crawley and away Yeovil so if today proves to be just a blip a likely total of 70 points.
Stevenage final potential points total 70 remaining games away Mansfield and home Cheltenham so likely total 67 points.
Newport potential 73 points next game home to Lincoln then their game in hand home to Oldham last game away to Morecambe so very much a threat but if Lincoln can do us a favour this would reduce their likely total to 70 points.
Oldham potential 71 points next game away to City then the game in hand away at Newport last game home to Northampton. Our game against them really is a huge six pointer. A win for us would reduce their points potential to 68 leaving ourselves on 69 points with a potential of 72.
We definitely want Oldham to beat Newport reducing the latter’s potential points total to 70. A win or draw for Newport, the latter leaving them on a potential of 71 points, would mean a draw away to FGR would not be enough and we would need all three points to pip them to the post.
Finishing level on points would also see us over the line as we have a far superior GD ours currently plus 10 Newport’s minus 3.
