So who is going down to L2?
Via a combo of gut feeling and a bit of statto delving I reckon that...
Wimbledon are for the drop (a couple of wins lately but their goal scoring record is woeful).
Bradford are for the drop (surely the managerial turmoil will come home to roost).
Rochdale are for the drop (terrible goals against record...even Wimbledon put 4 past them recently).
That would leave one place between 5 candidates (assuming that none of the 4 teams currently on 41 points hits a really bad run).
Shrewsbury have just won their game in hand, a confidence booster v Donny, and had a good January window (with the crazy exception of getting Smith on loan from Reading).
Bristol Rovers have a game in hand, but it is away at Donny on the 26th March.
Walsall have been slipping down the table, and they had Andy Cook sent off last Saturday, so will be without his goals for maybe 3 games.
Gillingham seem to be the genuine Jekyll & Hydes, with little regularity to their win / loss /draw pattern.
And then there's us, with hopefully just enough about us to stay up, on the basis of Saturday's decent enough performance at Blackpool.
Bottom line: Walsall to go down with Wimbledon, Bradford and Rochdale.
We finish in 19th place with Bristol Rovers in 20th.
