Lots of shit is going to happen between now and May so I'm still in 'focusing-only-on-Swindon-results' mode.
Currently, we're not very good at all.
Hope this helps.

If you get a 35 point season we could draw 14 of the next 28 and still stay up..no wins required.
We’ve already won 5 games. So wins were required

But this is about fan perception and it's only now that many have realised that we're in trouble... earlier some people were saying, that the squad is stronger than last seasons, because Flitcroft was useless, and Brown's sexy football should have us in the PO's if not the autos. This made it so much more enjoyable to go and watch games at the CG. Having said that I'm not sure Power gets we're in trouble.... rattling on about 5th highest budgets and need for change so Wellens can get us into PO's playing even more sexy Lukeball, at a time when Brown seemed to have got the need for some pragmatism and a bit of scrappage

So, do we need to win games to stay up or not?

The team with more points than the bottom two (GD pending) will stay up* * I'm being a dick btw. Hop you're well?

Well we're in the uncharted territory of a Div 4 relegation battle... it is possible we could stay up with draws. However lets not leave it to chance.... Wellens got 7 draws in Oldham's last 8, with a single defeat. They'd have stayed up with 3 wins and 5 defeats.

The word you were looking for was ‘yes’ Yes, we need to win games to stay up. Just like in all the divisions making a Division 4 relegation battle no different from any other division. HTH.

Why use one word when you can use 53?

Keep it up DV. It's hilarious trying to see him avoid just saying that winning games would help us avoid relegation

Personally, I've a hunch that we'll be just fine if we win enough games. Win enough and we might even make the playoffs.
I know it's a bit far-fetched but bear with me because I think I might be onto something here.

anyway I'm sticking up for Reg. He's just applying the staple formula of football mathmatics (Williamsonsian branch):

I'll agree to disagree, as this one is going nowhere.... I'll carry on looking at the 2 down making it different to the 4 down of Div 3, and the temporary 4 down of of Div 2, of which we fell foul in 94/95. Then the difference was exposed by the fact that by finishing 21st we went down, but under the usual 3 down we wouldn't have.

It's an idea that's more at the conceptual stage.
