We could have been knocking right on those auto doors but we have fallen short, we aren't there yet. Top 6 best chance for us, we just need to make sure we do well in these next 2 games and get some confidence, we are more than capable, just not consistent enough.

Rizlar Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Plenty of twists and turns to go I was hopeful of automatic promotion before Port Vale but that’s gone now just keep in front of Peterborough and Wycombe we will be in the play offs.

I take your point re expecting any team to win in isolation but for them all to win isn’t good or likely. Anyway let’s hope Wycombe blow up, but their run in is as easy as ours.

frank_spencer Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Wycombe need to win their 2 games in hand by 9 goals to knock us out of the top six. No need to panic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take Hunt Off Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Never thought at any stage we would achieve automatic promotion. We are capable of the playoffs, not guaranteed, but our chances will improve if we get anything from the next two games. That promotion feeling you get (many times in the past) just isn’t there yet with this team similar to the Phil Neal years , decent but not quite there.That’s not taking anything away from Evatt & the job he has done. It may be a longer road , but we’ll get there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short term I don't believe our next two results will go our way and things will look worse before they get better, but into April these few weeks without a midweek game could be exactly what we've needed before hitting the 7 league games in April Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they play 5 times & we play twice upto 1st April pre PJ Final. FWIW I think we’ll still finish 6th but it’s not going to be as straightforward as I thought….
