    Us......Burton (a) Peterborough (h) Blunts (a) Colchester (h) Wigan (a)


    Gills.....Vale (h) Rochdale (a) Shrewsbury (h) Burton (a) Millwall (h)


    2 home wins but 3 tough away games for us. Hoping for Hill and Mellon to do us a favour in their games vs Gillingham

    I still reckon we could still catch Millwall up.

    3 teams fighting for last 2 playoff places.

    Bradford still in this, very tough run in and despite several 1-0 wins far from convincing according to their local press.

    I would be more than happy with 5x 1-0 wins from now on in. That kind of result has not done Bradford or Leicester any harm at all.

    Plenty to play for because a couple of loses or a loss and a draw from those above and we're right back in with a good chance. Problem is we can't afford any mistakes, although in our favour we tend not to draw games (only 5 all season) so a loss and a win is better than a couple of draws from those above us.

    Problem is there aren't really any more 6 pointers, until the last game of the season. Both Millwall and Gills could both pick up just as many points as we do. The last game of the season, Gills and Millwall, may well be the decider. 80 points still might not be enough, which is mad

    I think we'll need 77 points to get in play offs...

    I reckon the team in 6th will have no more than 75. Hoping that at least...

    Highest points total I can see for a team missing out was 80 for Tranmere in 2003.

    Highly unlikely. That would realistically mean Gillingham finishing on 74 points, given goal difference. So you're relying on them only picking up 6 points from the next 5 games, while we pick up 10. Just can't see it
