Next 3 League Games

[Mike]

Next 3 league games are all against teams who have made it in the 4th round of the FA Cup.

Although it may not affect Torquay, who are the only one drawn against lower league opposition and probably wont be thinking that far in advance, it may play into our hands at both Stevenage and Hereford, as they may be thinking of bigger and better games in the week when they play us. In which case, probably a good idea to start with the likes of Jimbo in the team as there may be a fear of getting hurt and missing out, thus giving us an edge.

Thoughts ?

9 points from these games would set us up nicely.

Can any stattos out there say how many points we had after 22 games last season

so we are only 7 points behind, and its very tight this year so there is a good chance of still making a play off place, we just need to believe in the team and manager and make sure they have us the twelve man!!!

As is common, the bottom 2 at Christmas tend to be doomed, although this time around games in hand may make a difference?

I didn't know we were in the play off places this time last year Thought it was a late surge.

What do I know

If you remember Accy inparticular had quite a few games in hand on us, but they blew it!

Apart from when they played us of course

Chesterfield also plummeted like a stone, but have quite a head start this time, they have a great home record but I think they will begin to stumble before long

Yeah I remember them having a whole pile of games in hand, could have took them well into the play offs. Bring on February 1st! No roof and no points
