Londonboy Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Could be a very tasty and nervy last day of the season with 7 out of the current bottom 8 playing each other!! Dale will be down by then anyway..... Wimbledon v Bury Shrewsbury v MKD Fleetwood v Walsall Northampton v Latics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will be fifth bottom on goal difference over Fleetwood and we will be 7th, 2 points behind Shrewsbury. MKD will already be relegated.

For the last 2 years it hasnt gone down to the wire we were safe officially with 1 to go in 2017 and 2 games in 2016. For the purposes of the pessimism optimism balance we will get a twatting as we will down tools and give some of our youngsters their annual first team outing as Northampton fight like bastards in an attempt to stay up.

I will be however just in case....be buying my ticket nice and early as from recollection Northamptons away end is not very big and only holds about 1000 which we would fill 4 times over if there was something on the game.

You still think we’ll struggle? I think/hope we’ll have just enough, but as you say it will be tight. I don’t think 50 will be enough either. I think it’s gonna be more 53/54 this year. It’s very competitive for that last relegation place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve been in decent form and that’s without the best striker in the league. When he’s back we’ll be absolutely fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hands on Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 It always looks like 50 might not be enough when you are at this end of the division but 50 has only gone down twice in the last ten years so yes it might not be enough but five wins and 51 points certainly would.
