    Looking at the run in and the return of McGeehan & Brown I’m more than confident we will win the league.

    Feel free to bump this at 8pm on the 4th May....

    Given that you're more than confident, you wouldn't like to entertain an even money bet would you?

    Thought not.

    Why would he do that when we're 9/2?

    We're 1/4 to get promoted, whereas Sunderland are 4/5.

    The bookies reckon we've a 80% chance of going up, Sunderland have a 55% chance.

    He'd do that because he's more than confident.

    Why you're quoting odds about Sunderland however I do not know. His confidence was about us winning the league, not merely going up.

    I got side tracked to be honest looking at the bookies website.

    I'll take an even tenner for us to win the league. I think we will.

    Done.

    But to be fair, we're back square if we don't finish in the top two. OK?

    With our inability to put teams to bed because we can NOT score - then I think there is a good chance now that we won’t make the top 2.
    And it’s far from a formality in the playoffs.
    We may be up against Charlton or even our bogey team Coventry.

    But hey ........... we are more organised now and have a good chance next season.

    We’ll be fielding a different team next season nudge the club will cash in. If we dont go up i fear the worst.

    It’s a time for cool heads now and I still fancy us.

    But for injuries and suspensions I think we’d be sitting pretty, but although we have dropped points we have not imploded, remain unbeaten and have picked up points.

    Even without Moore I think we are better than Sunderland and will get the job done.

    I'm ok with today's results. Sunderland winning was balanced out by Lutons draw.

    Donny are now looking over their shoulders so have something to play for against our rivals if they want to stay in the top 6.

    Brown and McGeehans return will give us more of a goal threat.

    He rightly got 7/2 elsewhere.

    I really don't see it at all but I hope you're right.

    Not sure what we do if Woodrow gets injured, for instance.

    I hope you’re right but I think we will finish 2nd at best. I just can’t see Luton having a proper wobble. A couple of draws here and there for them but so could we. Like they say though, there’ll be lots of twists between now and end of season so anything could happen (except relegation ) I suppose. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out!
