Goodness. That would really test the "everyone gets better when they leave Swindon" theory.

Would be quite funny, but surely their owners are aware of the backlash. Jon Brady one of the other names doing the rounds on twitter, would be a much better appointment. |

Pretty sure we already safe with our current points total. Crewe now played the same amount of games as us and 10 points the gap.
Our next 5 fixtures are massive if we are to pull off a miracle,
Harrogate on poor form, 21st
Chesterfield, fantastic at home, 10th
Walsall on the wobble, 1st
Then the big games against two playoff teams Salford and Doncaster. Season defining fixtures

I think Carlisle will turn it around, leaving Morecambe and Tranmere to fall through the gap.
It does feel like we're safe, but a bad run of results can turn things quickly. If we can win our next 2, or at least get 4 points, I'd say we were there. I'm still not even considering playoffs to be honest.

It has all tightened up in mid table from Barrow in 18th upwards. Newport after being poor against us are now one of in form teams. We should be safe but might want to keep a healthy +10 or 12 point gap from the bottom in case anything unusual happens with our ownership. We are 15 point ahead of Morecambe and 17 ahead of Carlisle, I think we are now safe either way. |

Win our next 2 games vs Harrogate and Chesterfield and I MAY start thinking about the play offs, but then we have Walsall away and Doncaster and Salford at home which are likely to put an end to our push. I am not sure Carlisle can escape, much like FGR last season, when you are down nothing goes your way and each loss compounds that feeling. |

it's all well and good to fantasise about playoffs but it would take something quite ridiculous.
The team currently sat in 7th (salford) are tracking to end on 73 points.
We'd need to track at 2.4 PPG to reach 74.
For context; Walsall who are top are tracking at 2.0 for the whole season.
I am more annoyed we were not just a tiny bit less shit under Kennedy. Because then it would actually be a realistic possibility.

Remember the game when the oppo had an outfield player in goal and we didn't even shoot until the late equaliser?
At that point I was coinvinced we'd finish rock bottom by some distance under Kennedy.

And then he said "you can't just shoot from anywhere" in the post match, when you demonstrably can and should and that was the thing we'd done to get the equaliser. Possibly the crossest I've ever been watching a football match as it was just so stupid. We played three at the back the whole game against a team with an outfield player in goal who were just hanging on for dear life. I'm cross again thinking about it. |

Over the last 6 we are at 2.33 ppg. Do people really think we can keep that up for another 15 games?! We've tougher teams to face too. |

I was actually one of the few who was prepared to give Kennedy more time before this game. But that moment sealed it for me. That was the end. |
