Lincoln are only 8 points behind with 3 still to play, so could still overtake Peterborough.
Lincoln v Peterborough Saturday aswell.

But.... we would 'only need to win our games by a maximum of 8 goals if Sunderland lose both.Us score 10 goals in 2 games, one away game followed by one home game... Christ, when was the last time that happened? Oh, 2 weeks ago [emoji6]

No, I agree with you....we'll definitely win both by more than 1-0.If they lost both, we could win both by 1-0, but I can't see it.

Good point. We can stand Long and Ruffs down then, rest of the lads should be able to cover only 8 without needing the heavy artillery.But.... we would 'only need to win our games by a maximum of 8 goals if Sunderland lose both.
Ah yes, my mistake.If they lost both, we could win both by 1-0, but I can't see it.
Hopefully the loan agreement for Clare has a clause whereby they have to lose to us.Burton are on a fantastic run, they will be a tough one.
Yes, I knew that. Nor can I, to be honest....though their form over the past 10 games is worse than the scum's. Hard to believe, but true!I mean I can't see Sunderland losing both games.
The only shame is Accrington let a 2-0 lead slip. I know it could of been worse when Pompey went 3-2 up but Accrington had so many chances.
The play off place is now Pompey's to loose, they go to Wimbledon who even if they loose look like staying up on goal difference at the worst. Then comes the home game against Accrington who won't have nothing to play for except pride.
On paper you would say Pompey should get the 6 points as the other 2 teams won't be as committed to get a result.
Charlton would of been right in it if it wasn't for the late equaliser from Crewe. They would of only needed 6 points from the remaining 3 games to finish 1 point ahead of us, Now it seems the impossible task of 3 wins out of 3.
Shrewsbury and Burton will be similar for us. I just hope we concentrate on winning our games first as we have hardly performed under pressure. The positive is we have the better goal difference at the moment out of all 3.

Agree with all of that except the bit about Pompey, Wimbledon`s goal difference with Rochdale is close enough for them to want
to get at least a point and thats the same Accrington that had nothing to play for tonight and still managed +20 shots on goal.
It`s far from a given they will win these 2 games.
If we win our next 2 i think there is a more than a fair chance we will grab that 6th spot.
