    Nottingham Forest? I reckon they are a bigger threat than Oldham to be honest.

    Yes

    Oldham have:</p>

    Us (H), Bristol City (A), Swansea (H), Donny (A), Scunny (H)</p>

    Forest have:</p>

    Tranmere (A), Yeovil (H), Hartlepool (A), Bournemouth (H), Bradford (A)</p>



    More reason to worry about Forest imho, cos it only takes one of em to knock us out of the playoffs. Perhaps the only saving grace is that Forest are playing potential relegation threatened clubs. I'm glad we're level on points with Oldham and not Forest, put it that way. Hope those 2 points are enough.</p>

    RE: Yes

    I think Oldham have as much reason to worry about Forest as we do.

    As do Swansea and Colchester, as they are on a similar slide to us.

    Why assume it's OUR place Foprest will take?

    Teams are in relegation trouble for a reason.

    They are not very good.

    Complacent teams on the fringe?

    The totally inept?</p>

    lots of factors I suppose.</p>

    But it seams quite frequent that relegation threatened teams or even the relegated pull off surprise wins at the expense of promotion chasers.</p>

    if we make the play offs

    and come up against forest do you think it would be possible for us to beat them again? i dont, but then i thought after being beaten twice in the season by ipswich the law of averages would swing in our favour when we played at wembley. we all know what happened then.

    Nottingham have a had a right run in the last few games, but I still don't think they have the solidness to keep it up, mind you, I could say the same about us.

    Well

    You might be right. But the league suggests that Forest are more likely to dislodge either us or Oldham than they are Colly or Swansea. Swansea have a game in hand on us, Colly have 2 points <u>and</u> a game in hand on us. They might **** it up, who knows.</p>

    Even if Swansea miss out we'd still have to finish above Oldham or Forest. Its tight.</p>
