Happy if they surprise me, but can't see Swindon being up for this and expecting a Colchester win....not too fussed as I can't see them beating PNE on Sunday, who need the win for promotion. Be glad to see them out of the way tonight, though..........,then it's all down to agent Cody :D

Yep, that's the key one. They may well beat Swindon tonight, but I would say that Preston most definitely WILL beat them on Sunday. Preston have to win for promotion and they always fail when they make the play-offs. They will be so up for this game and they are unbeaten in 18 games.

Win on Sunday and they are promoted.

Preston will beat them on Sunday. If they don't, they won't lose, so Colchester won't be a threat to us at all I would say.

If it stays like this is means Crawley have to win on Sunday doesn't it?

There was the chance previously that a draw might have been enough if Notts County lose, but now with Colchester leap frogging them, if this stays the same Crawley have to win.

GULP.

Exactly the type of result we would be saying "how on earth did they beat Preston"

Relax - Swindon - Nothing to play for, PNE - automatic promotion to play for. HUGE difference.

Just think Preston have been the bridesmaids now far too often. When they make the play-offs they always fail. They will see this as a must win and I think they will have to play badly to bugger it up.

Preston to beat Colchester on Sunday.

Yep. A draw would have been okay for both teams if Notts County and Colchester were losing, but if this result stands tonight Crawley will have to win. their goal difference is much worse than Colchester's.

Why didn't we just play keep ball on Saturday and try and get the draw not looking forward to Sunday one little bit.

According to BBC website Swindon haven't committed a foul after 30 mins play. Really getting stuck in !!! :sarcasm:

there is.

I should be very relaxed as we have our league one status to play for so we should be ok.

i'd rather be us than one or two others, but after standing at that charlton game, I am predicting a nailbiting sunday

The difference is, we are crap and Preston are either the 2nd or 3rd best team in the league and are on the back of an 18 match unbeaten run.

Would say that is quite a substantial difference.
