Looks like Bournemouth will be out of the relegation zone after tonight, 2-0 up against Aldershot while Grimsby are loosing to Brentford.

13th it is but frankly who cares. The fact is we'd played at least three more games than each of those clubs and they'd have caught us up with just a win.

What is more interesting is that we now have clear daylight beneath us with five points between us and 15th. Then look around and above us.

Despite their win tonight Aldershot are struggling.
Darlington's situation will only get worse.
Daggers are in freefall and we play them at a very good time.
Shrewsbury have one point from nine and we play them in three weeks
Bury have lost a few on the bounce

There is a lot left in this season yet.

I agree with all the above, (apart from the bit about Aldershot, they lost tonight). After some nervy months we seem to be almost safe and with continued good form we could hold a mid-table position. We have some tough games against so called better teams coming up and the final game against Bournemouth could be ram jam full of atmosphere.

It doesn't matter a carrot if we are 13th or 17th (edited), the club has rallied well and the future is bright. Our house is really looking forward to the rest of the season.

I agree with Posh and OTB.
Amazing 2nd season to be still in the league with our resources.
Its great to get carried away when we have a good run and there is still a slim chance of play offs,
No chance of relegation now.
I think mid table, and what a good time we're having in the football league 8-)

I'm not too worried. A few days extra rest before the next game is a plus point. I wouldn't resort to oh no! after the run we've been on. A couple of good results and we'll be right in there. Plus we're playing a lot of teams above use before the end of the season, all 6-pointers if up is where we're heading.

I just hope we can pull something out of the bag at D&R, a place that has never been a happy hunting ground. In fact, even when we beat them at home, it felt like defeat (play off second leg).
