    going into the last 7 games, just had a look at who we have left to play, and it looks perfect to me, 4 home games against teams in play off contention with us, two away games against poor teams, and a Yorkshire Derby 6 pointer away. And I think man for man we have the better squad out of the teams we have to play

    I'd say that's about right. **** U possibly have a better squad than us but non league Nigel doesn't get the best out of them.

    Ideally you would be playing teams who have nothing to play for. I think playing teams at the top and at the bottom will be equally exhausting.
    From an entertainment point of view I would agree with you though.

    At the moment, every single team we are playing has a chance of playoffs or relegation so could make it tougher.

    I still don't think we'll do it, but hope we do.

    And as a fan base, we're being far too cocky about Sheffield United. We always **** up when we get cocky.

    Considering that at tea time on Valentine's Day we looked like getting relegated anything from here on in is a bonus imho. But doing that shower of cnuts on Saturday is essential.

    'Shower of cnuts' - sounds like heaven to me.

    There are no easy fixtures because every team in the league are playing for something & there's not much of a gap between the play offs & the relegation zone so every games likely to be competitive.

    I just think it's good that out of the 5 games against sides we're battling for 5th & 6th with we play 4 of them at home

    It's most definitely in our own hands. Either way, lets just go out and do our best - a top 10 finish, for me, would be a great achievement this season.
