Mind, I would still take 7 points from the 4 games to keep the nice gap below us. Edited January 31, 2023 by captainmed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyrotten Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Just tried ringing ticket office, for both home and away tickets (different options) and it says "ticket office phone lines are closed until further notice" - something to do with protecting staff from Covid. Anybody know anything about this, or been to ticket office in person this week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted February 1, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted February 1, 2023 Presumably theyve had a case or two and have told folk to stay home for a bit to make sure no one else comes down with it and creates a spread. Last thing we need are players getting it and it affecting our performances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you've got to have 5 and they still won't work. Better get there in person and stand on the safety stickers on the floor to be sure.

Wanderlust Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 The problem with not having the points on the board yet is that every game for the rest of the season is going to be a "must win" so we're in for a proper roller coaster ride and will probably drop points against unfancied teams and pick up points where we don't expect to along the way. I believe we have the team to give us a real chance it if they all stay available but we do need a fair slice of luck to go with it and we can't afford any more lacklustre performances of the type we've had from time to time earlier in the season. I guess that's footie - we'll go into every game with hope and that's not a bad place to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that about points in the bag, but we're averaging approx 7pts every 4 games, which if continued puts us on 80pts for the season. I'm not sure where 80 might put us, but I think I'd have taken 80 at the start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season it would have put us 7th (we got 73 pts = 9th) Wycombe were 6th with 83 Hopefully this team will push us higher.

Then we can worry about the playoff games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I'd hope you were both right. Either way, 80pts won't leave us 10 shy of the play-off like last year, so we will have progressed. But we did take 34pts from our last 17 games in 21/22, so a repeat puts us on 84. Edited February 2, 2023 by Traf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's a simple equation then - 2 pts per game average for the rest of the season and we should make the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toal is a good enough footballer that he can play left centre back, no way the new lad is anywhere other than the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
