Right, I've gone through all the remaining fixtures and mapped them for the current top 6.
Normal is home game
Italics away game
Red are against other top 6 teams
Blue are games against current bottom 6
We will catch up with Rotherham with games in hand after the Wycome game on 24th March.

So Rotherham have the easiest run in then.

With us and Sunderland equal hardest, except they have to play us!

But they do play Sunderland on the last day. Should be a great game for 2nd place

And we could kick off 15 minutes late just for fun.

We perhaps have toughest run in but lets hope some mid table teams like lincoln ans blackpool have nothing to play for

Your Lincolns and Blackpools are often the most difficult games especially on their own muck heaps.

I'm not sure we do have the toughest run in. Yes we've got 4 of the top 6 but we've also played less games.

So Peterboro only have two games against the top 6 but anything we pick up in our extra 2 fixtures extends our lead over them.

And on form Gillingham and MK away are big tests given their recent home form.

And I thought I had too Much time on my hands.

Hopefully Wimbledon will be well safe before them.

Hope your right. But gotta feeling this is going down to the final game. Been tight all season.

Hope Fleetwood get a decent result against Sunderland tomorrow

Fleetwood are the dark horse contender. A draw would be fine

Fleetwood have got a busy couple of weeks coming up and then finish 8 days before everyone else.

We play better against better teams in any case ... so that's fine !

Well those in the top 10 then Johhny ! ;-) eg those below us in the table !

Soccerstats has us with the most difficult run in based on remaining opponent’s average points per game. Peterborough have the easiest of the top 6

No ones talking about Oxford. But they are back on form.

They definately in running for top 6.

They still have to play Southend twice! And Bolton 2nd last game of season.

I for one am not talking about Oxford

Or Ipswich or Portsmouth or Fleetwood or Peterborough or Sunderland or Wycombe or Rotherham

they have two of the top six at the moment , but that's not to say Portsmouth won't be in the top six when they meet, plus a tuff derby game with Doncaster.

I've seen it said many times that we perform better against the top teams. But out of 10 games played against the current top nine, I think we've only won 3. Only one defeat though, so very respectable, with a ppg of 1.8. So we've performed well against the top sides, but not 'better' as some suggest.

We it doesn’t matter because I’ve done the Grimsby fishy calculator and we Finish top with Rotherham second.

It's going to be a tough old slog. If we don't get the points we don't deserve to get the automatics though, the best teams win the majority of games.

People keep thinking Wycombe are going to fall away but in truth they haven't and have a favourable run in!

Brilliant info - just screenshot this on my phone.
Think Wycombe will probably drop out of the top 6 over the next 3 weeks as they only have 1 game to play whereas Fleetwood are Sat/Tues non stop - the top end of the table will keep changing so let’s just hope we stick around the top 2!

I can see the logic in separating out the top 6 as opponents, but Portsmouth and Oxford are as difficult as any other games

Rotherham have lost a few matches this season so have a knack of losing the odd game here and there, we have to hope it happens a couple more times this season.
Sunderland seem to be hitting form now but have a difficult 5 game run in for me with posh and Rotherham.

I don't know it's at the point now where we just have to hope we keep pulling the results out the bag and stay with the pack until we have 5 left

Portsmouth are only 2 points behind Peterborough and have 2 games in hand, so in reality are probably higher up the table than Peterborough

Be all over after we beat Accrington away I tell you , we will be up !
