If we just replicate that last three games, we'd win, draw and lose in equal measure over the 15 games and manage 20 points, bringing us close.  Still a shocking state of affairs, to be working out how we exceed our worst ever finish in Div 4.

I’m with Audrey and Adje - I’ve seen enough to think we will pick up the few wins needed to exceed that points total.

Unfortunately, I expect that results will be sufficient to see Gunning get the gig permanently.

I think it heavily deoends on the next 3 games to be honest. There’s a bit of a bounce as it’s not Flynn/Hatswell anymore combined with a new player bounce. If we don’t pick anything up over the next 3 tricky games based on his past history I fear Gunning will become a bit of prick if he starts to get questioned and we’ll just revert to type.

Win 5
Draw 4
Lose the rest

Think the five wins poss come v Tranmere , Donny, Sutton, Grimsbeh, and Walsall

Draws v Notts County, Morecambe, Accrington, and Wimbledon {or maybe Gills }

Lose v Gills {or Wimbledon}, MKDonalds , Stockport ✘, Harrogate {fucking Harrow Gate} ✘, Mansfield {fucking Mans Field}, and Barrow {FUCKING Barrerrh}

I make that about 19pts. I agree with Nick Aud, that Town will win more than 3 óder 4, meaning that's a ''say fish'' {fish} bet but conversely also meaning that Town will still finish just below the oft fated creamflow drink line. I also don't think 3Opts is remotely achievable. Only my onion of course

The biggest propblem for me is just how long do these new additions stay fit. I do think we have the potential to win the more games than i stated but i just can't see the players staying fit enough for the remainder of the season

It's a bit more than a few wins isn't it? 21 points is either 7 wins, 6 wins and 3 draws or 5 wins and 6 draws. The last one involves only losing four games when we're away to three of the top four.

I don't think we're particularly bad right now, but we've left ourselves quite a difficult run here. We need to get almost half the points available.

I think we'll be two or three points either side of it, can't see it being far off.

There is no doubt, under Gunning performances have been far superior to the last 10 or so under Flynn, we are creating chances and actually shooting.

In the last 5 games under Flynn we averaged 9 shots per game and 3 on target.

In the 1st 3 games under Gunning we have averaged 15 shots and 4 on target each game, small but noticable improvements.

In the last 2 games we have averaged 21 shots per game and 5 on target, if we keep that up we will start scoring more than a goal a game.

Against Salford on another day we could easily have scored 3 or 4 with better finishing and we came up against a keeper in the form of his career who made 3 or 4 top saves.

Defence is as always the issue for me, we can create chances from nothing but we can concede with the same ease.

I think we will win at least 4 of the final games and get a fair few draws, no team other than Stockport have really impressed me and we only have to be a bit better than average to get results.

Again, albeit a very short sample, but 3 games under Gav = 1 goal per game conceded against 2 under Flynn.

Is it possible to get Beamish stout anywhere these days? Quaffing that at the season's end could be a suitably elegiacal way of bidding farewell to 2023-24.

Well, I may be confusing enjoying the performance on Saturday with an upturn in confidence, but I saw enough to convince me we are far better than the arse end of Flynn. Sure, it’s a small sample of 3 games but Gav is right - we should have won all 3.

That, and I fucking hate the never ending downbeat, wrist-slitting pessimism that surrounds the club at the moment.

In essence - hope over expectation!
Anyone who knows me will tell you i have been one of the most optomistic fand you will have met over the last 10 years.

The never ending downbeat, wrist-slitting pessimism that surrounds the club at the moment is with very good reason, is it not? I genuinely can't see what there is to be optomistic about whatsoever

Which is why I just take each individual game as one off event - to enjoy of not depending on performance/result.

I’ve stopped extrapolating where we’d be if we won this game or that, can we make the POs, are we getting dragged towards the trapdoor. It’s not worth continually railing against something I can’t change.

I’ve done all this with previous regimes and where did that get us.

Forest Green win away, but Sutton lose at home.

16 points clear of the relegation spots
