Same team, unless injuries say different or Dino is a fool. This. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzlatic Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I suppose you could argue that the team in 14th drawing away at the team in 2nd is a very good result. But this is league 2 not the premier league, that team is Crewe, and we’ve just won 2 games comfortably scoring 6 goals in the process. An improvement on results against the top sides so far this season? Yes, definitely. “Brilliant”? No chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 2nd February 2007, Blackpool were 7th. Equal on points with sixth with a game in hand. We were second Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And conversely, huge implosions when chasing promotion to end up relegated? Dowie's run with Palace in the mid-00's was impressive. Think they went from bottom half to the play-offs and up. I remember us playing Millwall who were in and around the play-offs at about Christmas in 1995-96. They went on an awful run and went down.

Did York not do it from relegation spots just before Christmas a few years ago? Might have imagined it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember us winning at The Den near the end of the season to hammer another nail into their coffin and more or less guarantee our own survival.

Just looked at the tables: 21st spot, 13 points adrift of playoffs on Christmas Eve. 13th spot, 12 points adrift of playoffs at the start of February. Finished 7th, 9 points clear of 8th. Took 36 points from their last 16 matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So 36 points from 15 matches required. 10W 5D 0L would see us fall just short most years. Just have to aim for 11 wins instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
