Win that and it's definitely on, then its compete for everything, keep a steady ship and play every game as it comes. I'd like to think play offs Best performance of the season so far. It's on as long as we keep our heads down and don't get beyond ourselves. Let's keep doing what we're now good at please Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket 1,565 Posted February 23 Site Supporter Share Posted February 23 Just been browsing fixtures for weekend and next week. Definitely got an opportunity to close right up. I see FGR as being favourites for the title, but its there for anyone who can put together a really good run. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hutch 9 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 If any statto could tell me please - what is the highest crowd for a division 4 game ever? Reckon there would have been 20k at Valley Parade a week on Saturday Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Casino 2,363 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 (edited) 49k Without checking Sheff derby in the 70s I think we were at oldham,maybe boxing day Edited February 23 by Casino Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hutch 9 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Just looked at Cheltenham fixtures and they seem to have a good run until end of season Think it will be Forest Green, then Cheltenham then possibly Tranmere or us Think Cambridge will start to tumble Now Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Casino 2,363 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Wiki says 37k, palace millwall Sheff might have been division 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
leigh white 464 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Loads of high crowds in the lower divs, in the 50s. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Casino 2,363 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 The Third Division attendance record is held by the Boxing Day game between Sheffield Wednesday and Sheffield United in 1979, when 49,309 people were at Hillsborough. And prior to that, before the old Third Divisions North and South merged, Cardiff City’s game against Bristol City attracted 51,621 people to Ninian Park in April 1947 for a Division Three (South) game Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hutch 9 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Thanks. That’s a great crowd at Cardiff, because of the Rugby I never have them down as that well supported Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Site Supporter Cheese 884 Posted February 23 Site Supporter Share Posted February 23 Still think we've left it a tad too late - by circumstance rather than mismanagement. Most important thing for me now is keeping this squad together. Sure some of the bigger boys have got their eyes on Santos, and Baptiste would be hard to replace if he decides to call it a day at the end of this season. Evatt is well on the way to proving himself in the market since Phoenix left, just hope he's got the charisma to convince them to stick around. I think he might.

Dr. Feelgood 25 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 We're 16 points & goal difference behind 3rd place and played a match more, with 16 games to play. We could catch any of those clubs, but not all of them. Auto would need a miracle. Play-offs are feasible. Let's get 9 points from the next 3 games & be in the mix then.

Cartman2932 14 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Taking games in hand into it, I think we would be 13 points off top and 7-9 off third. But that is assuming that all games in hand are won, which is unlikely or impossible. Automatic is still a big ask, but possible, think we can only really look to drop 8 more points though before season end. That would put us on 84 points, which should just be enough, although this is a strange season so lower points total might go up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rudy 1,171 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 The games in hand could be a blessing in disguise depending how they fall, the teams above could have games in hand against each other and effectively take points off each other Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cartman2932 14 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Just now, Rudy said: The games in hand could be a blessing in disguise depending how they fall, the teams above could have games in hand against each other and effectively take points off each other Oh absolutely, certainly in Carlisles case, if we keep winning it also puts more pressure on those teams to win those games in hand which will play into it. We really just need to focus on our own game and take each one as it comes. Evatt clearly knows this and is very focused in that messaging in his press conferences/after match comments. Just positive we are not relying on snookers just yet Quote Link to post Share on other sites
