Keep it once we beat bradford & Cambridge I’m expecting a better offer on the table 

If I win £1,500, it's all going on fine wine

Just looking at the squad and both internal and external views of our players. 

We have 5 with a fair claim to be the best in the division in their position right now.

Doyle and Sarcevic, whilst we are critical sometimes, they are delivering and sure as Hell opponents respect them utterly.

Lee, surely two Divisions below his standard. His fitness means we're currently only getting an hour at a time from him but it's always a very, very good hour.

Declan John. It's so long since we had an exceptional left back it seems a bit of a shock tbh.

... and Santos. Man mountain who we can barely believe we're seeing match by match.

Certainly a long way from firing on two, let alone all, cylinders but if we can get Maddison on song he could be added to this group.

It's not like the other players are duck eggs either. MJ Williams is getting rave reviews, Baptiste is surprising a good few. Thomason, for someone who spent 3m on loan in Div 6 is showing huge promise. Arthur, a long way from World Class but what an impact the lad is having. Gilks has, of course, done well since the early season goalkeeping debacle. I do hope Evatt & Co. can line up a best-in-class keeper for next season.

There. Positivity. What a strange new experience.

Still too tight to call. 
We could win the league, or just top 3, or play-offs, or even miss out. 

That's how tight it is, we HAVE to keep winning.

I've completed my wallchart for the remaining fixtures. With pencilled in outcomes for each match (to be overwritten with results as they arise).

My efforts to be impartial extend to giving Tranmere a better outcome than I'd like, and I may well have been optimistic with our own hopes. Strangely, Mansfield appear to have plenty fluke results going against them.

Anyway, as it stands I have:

Tranmere 84, Bolton 82, Cheltenham 81;

Forest Green 78, Carlisle 77, Salford 76, Cambridge 75;

Newport 73, Bradford C 72, Exeter 72, Morecambe 72.

League Two Play-Off Final – 29/31 May 2021 according to https://www.efl.com/clubs-and-competitions/key-dates/

Any chance of this being in front of fans?

We're in with a squeak of making the play offs irrelevant ... by finishing in the top three. I think we'd need 30 points from our last 14 games to be in with a good chance. Not entirely impossible though.

My blood pressure would struggle with the play offs. Third place for me. Or better. 

But I see what you mean.

My blood pressure is too high for every game at the moment. Next two are critical

Blood pressure would struggle with the scramble for getting one of the 3,500 tickets we’d get. 

iFollow ticket stubs for away games should have priority

You’re crazy. I reckon your 10 year old will have ample opportunity to experience in the next few years to experience a Wembley play-off.

There’s very little worse than being the losing finalist.

Third or higher and feet up for this kid.
