What is their pitch like? Is it still as bad as ours?
It looked pretty good a couple of weeks ago against Accrington

Going back to the "fixtures to play", Town are actually above on their target points of expected wins. They have had two "bonus" wins now that weren't really expected (Crewe and Filletwood today).
I mentioned that Town's record against the teams around them has been very good. I think the best of the bottom 6 but it's very good even if I'm wrong on the last part; better than 4 others for sure. Town still have several of them to play. These were always going to be the matches that matter the most. Picking up the two extra wins and the point v Lincoln have been a welcome addition.
No one really can disagree (although I can think of one or two that might) that beating Wovvers will massively increase Town's chances of staying up and getting towards a survival target of points.
Said it numerous times previously. This is going to go down to the last day and will probably be settled on GD. Town can "easily" escape if they keep up their good form against the teams around (currently all below them).

gd is going to be extremely important so bad and close between all teams at the bottom. the problem when we win is that we only win by 1 goal. Today was the 1st time under sheridan we have won by 2 goals. The clean sheet is obviously as important.

Especially in the 5 games against the teams around us where goal difference will effectively be doubled.

Four wins and a draw may be enough this year, five wins almost certain to stay up so could still afford to lose five

Apart from, obviously, wishing defeats for Bristol Rovers v Sunderland and Wigan v Ipswich, what’s the best outcome of Wimbledon v Northampton?
I reckon anything but a Wombles win.

A 0-0 would be ideal.

Wednesday sees Gills v Wigan. A convincing home win would be ideal.
Good Friday sees the following fixtures of interest.
Pilgrims V Wombles Tractor Boys v The Gas Milk Drinkers v The Brewers Cobblers v Part-Time Taffs Navy Bois v The Dale
Four home, one away would do nicely thank you.

a draw keeps them both below us! a win for northampton would be a good bit of form for them. maybe too good

Not confident of a result today, but hoping other results will help us maintain a bit of a gap.
