Title: Enough Points to make the Play-Offs? Post by: Crozzer on Sunday, March 11, 2007, 00:51:21 Is 67 enough?
Title: Enough Points to make the Play-Offs? Post by: DV on Sunday, March 11, 2007, 00:51:39 no.
Title: Enough Points to make the Play-Offs? Post by: DV on Sunday, March 11, 2007, 00:55:07 75 play off
85 auto 92 champions Title: Enough Points to make the Play-Offs? Post by: STFC Village on Sunday, March 11, 2007, 01:02:00 I'd expect 70 to be enough, unless the Shrews go on some amazing run with their games in hand.
I think we should be more concerned with making the automatic promotion places though, and right now, despite some sub-standard performances, we're well placed.

Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Sunday, March 11, 2007, 11:11:17 75 will almost definatly seal it. 3 more wins. shouldn't be a problem. 7 more for automatic. should be a problem looking at our away games
Title: Enough Points to make the Play-Offs? Post by: Reg Smeeton on Sunday, March 11, 2007, 11:21:02 Last season Lincoln finished 7th on 66 points......that was a bit unusual, its normally about 70 minimum....
If we can win our remaining home games, and pick up a couple of wins on the road, that should seal an auto spot. Sounds easy doesn't it? The problem is we just don't look like a side that can win games, even when we do....still being reliant on getting a bit lucky with a pen or something. Title: Enough Points to make the Play-Offs? Post by: DMR on Sunday, March 11, 2007, 13:01:59 We should win all our home games, only Walsall are a team that worry me in that they could come here and win.
We're so unpredictable whose to say who we'll beat away, I fancy us for Hereford and Rovers because we'll take loads. I still think we'll do it. Title: Enough Points to make the Play-Offs?

We're so unpredictable whose to say who we'll beat away, I fancy us for Hereford and Rovers because we'll take loads. I still think we'll do it. Taking loads doesn't necessarily help us....ie Barnet. Although we're more or less safe for the PO's.....a team like Peterborough who are getting on a roll, with new manager and new players, I'd have down as favourites at this stage.

We're not THAT bad. Title: Enough Points to make the Play-Offs? Post by: herthab on Sunday, March 11, 2007, 13:13:21 I wouldn't be at all confident if we ended up in the play offs.
Our form has been very erratic and there would be teams who would be going into them on the back of a good run. Title: Enough Points to make the Play-Offs?

I'd say for auto we need something like 5 wins from 10 games....of which 6 are away. Problem is that after looking hard to beat on the road, we've got 1 point from the last 3 games. Title: Enough Points to make the Play-Offs? Post by: my-velocity on Sunday, March 11, 2007, 14:06:28 If we end up in the Play-Offs we won't win it!! We don't score enough goals, simple as that. And plus if we get someone like MK we would stand no chance as they got 3 really decent strikers that score goals. When was the last time our strikers scored, oh yeah 24th Jan.
Title: Enough Points to make the Play-Offs? Post by: dogs on Sunday, March 11, 2007, 14:12:07 Calm down. We'll go up automatically.

When was the last time our strikers scored, oh yeah 24th Jan. yeah, the odds of us beating free scoring MK is very far fetched. We've only beaten them TWICE this season :roll: as I said to Rich, 7 wins and 2 draws from 10 should see us up automatic comfortably and now relying on the final day against Walsall Title: Enough Points to make the Play-Offs? Post by: Christy on Sunday, March 11, 2007, 23:30:36 Five wins and two draws will be enough.
We'll be a touch short methinks. Title: Enough Points to make the Play-Offs? Post by: Glostered on Monday, March 12, 2007, 13:23:04 These are the teams that finished 3rd in the last six seasons and they're points total:
2006 - Orient - 81 2005 - Swansea - 80 2004 - Torquay - 81 2003 - Wrexham - 84 2002 - Mansfield - 79 2001 - Chesterfield - 80 We're currently on 67 with ten games left. 'If' we win 3 of our four home games and one away, throw in a draw or two and we'll go up in 3rd. Probably. :? Title: Enough Points to make the Play-Offs? Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Monday, March 12, 2007, 17:18:05 but this season the top 5 have been getting far more points. i reckon about 85 to go up
Title: Enough Points to make the Play-Offs? Post by: reeves4england on Monday, March 12, 2007, 17:38:17 It's going to go down to the wire and I don't think you can predict it.
As for the whole "We can't beat MK" and "We can't win the play-offs".....that's a load of bollocks. Looking at the teams in there, we have done ok against most so far this season. We have beaten MK twice already and this week they got stuffed. They are not THAT good |
