3 points on Saturday would be brilliant for sure, but like you say it is so much bigger than that. 3 points is just one single game. As I keep saying, we need a run of results. Are we capable of 4 wins on the bounce? I would say almost definitely not. We would in all probability have to win at...

Hmm... seems though that his calibre includes having teams of his 3 times in excellent play-off positions at Christmas and then totally blowing it. Not sure I would want another manager of that calibre to be honest.

Agree with all these.

And just 2 goals in the 4 games since putting 6 past Bury. One of those coming from a defender, Aaron Martin. Silly goals away at the back, not scoring enough at the other end. Hardly screams out 7 wins out of the last 11 games does it!

We dream of finishing 12th. I reckon we might need a draw away at Oldham last game of the season to guarantee staying up.

Looks like we will passing every team on the way down anyway, so maybe we can just give him a wave as Scunthorpe pass us.

They do say he will appear in the finale. That is usually an elongated episode isn't it, or in two parts. Think you'll have ample opportunity to admire the size and glory of his baseball bat.

Yeah, but I now hate saying that. Used to always say 'oh, that's a good age!' Or 'He had a good life.' Can't say to my parents 'Did you hear, George Martin died! He was 90, so a good age.' They are both 87. Have to tread on eggshells sometimes.

Eh? Surely we have to go by how many points the team in 6th place got? No team has ever made the play-offs on less than 69 points. That is the stat we have to look at.

Also, it's a fair point about strugglers. Certainly teams you would be at least looking to get maximum points from if you have any aspirations. Drew against Oldham. Won one, lost one against Shrewsbury. Drew and lost against Rochdale. Won and lost against Fleetwood. Drew against Blackpool.

Fleck does this all the time.

Just seen it. 1 win in 16.

What was the run, do you remember?

I'm thinking pyramid scheme and TM losing his life savings.

Last time I was in a fluffy duck I got arrested for public indecency.

Is that a euphemism?

Suppose to counter that though, a new a manger in and the team starts winning again, the attendances will increase again. If TM stays and we keep losing, the attendances are going to drop to 9,000 and lower. That costs us money too.

I also remember a couple of weeks back when someone on here said look at the difference, last season we lost 17 matches, this season we have only lost 8. Errm.... that is now up to 11. Still 11 games to go too.

Sad, sad loss. So much a part of what the Beatles achieved.

It does though feel like someone has put a gypsy like curse on our football club though. Apparently the only team in the football league to have never been in a play off match.
