Remaining home games My predictions: Yids - away fans 3,500 - score - win 3-2 Colchester - away fans - 200 - win 3-2 Millwall - away fans - 300 - win 2-1 Cheltenham - away fans - 100 - win 5-1 Southend - away fans - 250 - win 2-0 Carlisle - away fans 500 - win 3-1 (Graham gets their goal  ) Brighton - away fans 300 - win 3-1 Summary - 7 games, 21 achieveable points - why not? Apart from Yids - WE SHOULD BE IN THE SOUTH STAND FOR EVERY GAME, lets get this stadium rocking - the atmosphere against Swindon was superb we can create that for every game now. In fact - for the likes of Colchester and Cheltenham - give them the FM lower tier and lets fill the South Stand. If the stadium safety officer says no (to the South Stand) for the Millwall game, then that is disgraceful - if they are that worried about the Cockneys - BAN them from travelling up - there will be loads of hype like every time they come up and there will be 200-300 sat singing "no one likes us". |

from my research we need around the 75 point mark to make the playoffs. so that means we only need 32 points from 17 games, win 10 draw 2 and lose 5. easy achievable.
75 points has been the average from the last few seasons for 6th place.

Exactly - the play offs ARE achieveable!!
I can see us picking up 3 or 4 wins away from home if we can get the momentum going - I am sooooo confident at home now - Peterborough was our hardest home game left and we fought well and won that one - why not win all our home games and pick up 10-12 points away from home.
Come on Town.
Believe...........

Carlisle and Brighton will bring a fair few, they always seem to!

I just don't think Carlisle will have anything to play for.
I thought I was being quite generous with 300 for Brighton - I'm sure they will be a mid table finish may be finish about 10th with their new signings??

We might only need 71pts(the record lowest)to get into the play-offs.So a w8 d4 l5 may do it. Very achievable  |

When we play Carlisle, If we boo Graham when he gets the ball hopefully that will effect his confidence

Dont forget colchester are on a right run at present and a massive threat to nicking that final play off place. That and the Leeds game are massive as it wouldnt just be 6 points for us but would also be a dent in both clubs play off hopes

Only? Thats just under an average of 2 points per game (aka the form of a champion). Its do-able but I'm under no illusion that its gonna be mega difficult. |

Very achievable No way will 71 be enough, 77 or even 80 this season may not be enough, Tranmre failed with 81 a few years ago and the top 6 have more points in bag this season than usual. Still possible but being realistic, we need a good run starting now! A couple of defeats on our travels will see us with far too much to do in the last 10 games. |

No need to ban them since they won't be here in large numbers particularly if they fall off in the league as I'm expecting. As usual the W Yorks plod will outnumber the away support as they will use Millwall's historic and completely outdated reputation as an excuse for huge overtime payments. I just can't understand how they manage to get away with it, but I suspect their drain on club's resources will be curtailed shortly. Their management of football matches has completely undermined my own respect for them and they ought to realise that they are losing large swathes of the public goodwill and respect as a consequence of their mismanagement and profligacy. Despite the police, and I couldn't resist a big dig, I think 21 points is achievable, but I suspect we will drop points against at least 2 of them. Colchester have an admirable away record and I don't fancy us to beat them unless we score early. |
