Is the points needed for automatic promotion from this division finishing in 3rd place since 04/05 season to present.
07/08 was a freak season where Hereford finished 3rd on a very high 88 points.
04/05 Yeovil won the league with 83 points.
Where do we see this season panning out ? I reckon 85 points will clinch 3rd place.

At the rate we are going we're going to get more than that...and anyway we're going for the title.

Was just looking on the BBC football site at our fixture list. They don't have the missing Barnet away fixture on there yet but can't think of our other game in hand? I think on current form we should be winning 8 of our 10 remaining home games so that would be 82 points plus whatever we pick up away. 88 points or more is realistic.

So you think we will only pick up another 6 points away from home!!!
Don't be so pessimistic guys - we are in the zone this season. Difficult to see who is going to beat us - it's a crap division.
Undefeated for the remainder of the season and start thinking about promotion next season too

109 is the maximum we can achieve

I can see this being a season like the 07/08 season. There are at least 7 clubs more than capable of making a break for it, I do think we will win the league with a game or two in hand! I believe only the last play-off position is up for grabs unless a couple of the top clubs absolutely blow-up!

We still have a few tough away games so I'm still thinking the majority of our home games will have to be won.

If anyone do blow, It will be torquay. They only have 6 home games remaining.

Still can't believe there are still unbelievers - we are witnessing the dawn of an era here, guys.
Give it 4 weeks and the rest will be staring at our arse

I think it's the pain of experience, whilst I'm currently enjoying the ride, I can't get carried away until promotion is in the bag. Besides none of us truly knows what Di Canio will do at the end of the season if offered a better job elsewhere.

That's the problem, over the years it's hardly ever been straight forward. Either ups or downs but not many in betweens.

Shrewsbury have beaten us once this season already. We're good enough to beat them, but I won't be getting carried away with any of this 109 points business until we've got that one out of the way!
