No. I said we got an away point at a club that had a good start. I will say the same now as before. Teams near the top will end up in the bottom half. Stevenage are doing so. Teams hit form at different times. Teams lose their star players. Small squads don't do well in winter. Players get injured with no replacements. These reasons are what have given me the faith. I was deluded to think we could make the playoffs. We have gone up the table a bit quicker than I expected. I now say automatic promotion. 2nd would do me.

Your faith and keenness for betting could land my charity a windfall so anything above 13th will do

I give away 50% of all my winnings over the season to charity. 3 seasons ago I bought a new car and cancer research were very happy.

Can't remember who I have the bets with that I have on here, but will find them and double the winnings for you.

Got 1 with me pal I think.

I think it's top 6 for you, bottom 6 for me, @ £20 then doubled if promoted or relegated.

We are now the highest scorers in the league, and still have to play the top teams again get points off them and the gap slowly gets smaller. Keep this form going and it's a comfortable play off position but I'm not ruling out auto promotion......., I BELIEVE!!!!!!!!

If we make the play offs Astute I d be delighted to pass 50 quid to your chosen charity, it will be money well spent and punish me for my cynicism!

And I've said dozens of times, I of course very much want my prediction of 14th to be so very, very wrong.

I genuinely think it could go either way. I don t see us lower than mid table but on current form also nothing is impossible, injuries and the transfer window may play a part. Not forgetting the increasing profile of our manager

This season 86 points will be enough.

I probably did get a bit carried away there, its probably too much of a gap for us to overcome. If only we had Robins from the start.

8 points off automatic, I'm with you on this one, we can do it if we tighten up our home form!

Sheff Utd didn't go up with 92 points I believe
Click to expand...

Last season there were 3 sides winning most of there matches the unlucky one being Sheff Utd who got 90.

2011/12 Auto 93 Play offs 73
2010/11 Auto 92 Play Offs 71
2009/10 Auto 86 Play Offs 80
2008/09 Auto 89 Play Offs 76
2007/08 Auto 83 Play offs 74

We have 37 points from 24 so if we carried on as we are including the terrible start and the great current form we would get 71 points from 46 games. This season no team is running away with the league, so auto could be as low as 85 which is 16 wins from 22 games. That is only achievable if we keep McG or Clarke carries on in similar form in front of goal.

More realistically 76 points should make sure of the play offs and that equates to 13 wins from 22.

Either way we could get an exciting end to the season
