thephat1 Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 As we stand today on 54 points with 21 games to go HOME Fleetwood Port vale Sheff utd Posh Rochdale Gillingham (again) Crewe Barnsley Swindle Coventry Walsall AWAY DONS Colchester Doncaster Orient Crawley Oldham chesterfield Bradford Yeovil I see 7 home games that are certainly winnable 6 away that I would have to fancy That would leave us on 90 points and winning the league. It really is in our own hands especially with todays result for Swindle. Would need a collapse of mammoth proportions for us to blow this chance and I really cant see Cotts letting that happen!!

Numero Uno Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 There is another one missing because we have 21 games left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thephat1 Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 There is another one missing because we have 21 games left. Apologies took fixtures off BBC website, but I think you get my point. Looking at what we have coming up really cannot see a reason why we cant get the 11 wins we need to secure promotion.

cityexile Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 Preston away I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negan Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 I'd say the winnable home games are Fleetwood, Port Vale, Peterborough, Gillingham, Crewe, Barnsley, Coventry, Walsall. and away Colchester, Orient, Crawley, Oldham, Yeovil So 13 wins possibly and 39 points. So that would see us on 93 points. All guess work of course but I honestly think automatic promotion is realistic, still not confident we'll win the league though. P.S you're missing Preston away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron-Bcfc Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 When people say 'winnable' do they mean dead cert? Because EVERY game is winnable for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityexile Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 The joy of football is that it is unpredictable. Decisions given/not given, injuries, misses, just bad days at the office. I am sure we will drop some we expect to win, and hopefully pick those up in more difficult ones. Other than direct rivals, getting to the stage where wins are everything. In the words of the old sages, lets take each game as it comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have been going at 2.16 so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, which is why people trying to compare our loss at Crewe with Dongers win at Crewe are being silly, of course we won at Scunny when we had a lot of luck and Dongers only drew having mullered them for most of the game, SH it happens it's called football.

Guest Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 A week in April; starting on 6th v Swindon then Preston will decide if its auto or play offs; although winning the next 2 will go a long way towards it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChippenhamRed Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 All games are winnable and all are loseable. With 21 games remaining there are far too many variables to start making predictions about how many points are needed to win promotion. If the top three pull away it's perfectly plausible that you could finish 3rd with a very large points total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe so, but as stated elsewhere Swindon have MKD before us then Preston as well in April; would love it to be all over before then but its been close for months now and early April will decide the top 2 imo.

GodEmperor Palpatine Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 12 wins and a few draws from the last 21 would see comfortably promoted methinks.. without getting too carried away 12 wins out of 21 is definitely conceivable.

Chivs Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 If Flint or Ayling get injured then the season starts to look a lot longer. This "WE ARE GOING UP" attitude is very premature in my view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1960maaan Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 While I agree , it's in our hands.... and I think we have a very good chance, and this year does seem very different. Two words (for when you look at easy fixtures) Crewe away ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
