Northampton vs Yeovil

[W4 Shrimper]

Big game tonight - whatever the result, you could paint it as good or bad for Southend really.

Hopefully Yeovil are going to start wobbling and seeing as they still have to come to Roots Hall, I'm hoping for a draw.

Yeovil, I honestly don't think they are catchable, so it's Northampton we need to keep looking over our shoulders at.

Yeovil are gonna win the division I think and I would like them to have won it by the time they come to the hall so we have more to play for. Northampton, if they win their games in hand, will be 2 points behind us - therefore I'm hoping for a Yeovil win...

I'm also of the opinion that winning this league is a bit to much to expect from us, and that Yeovil will win the league, so for me i hope they win every game they play from now on apart from with us.

It will also mean that Northampton won't close the gap on us.

I've said all along that I'd be happy for Yeovil to just go and win the League with us fighting for 2nd or 3rd place.
Games in hand are all well and good, but you still have to win them

i'd have to go for a yeovil win. take points off northampton to ease our way to the automatics.

i can actually see the game being a draw though. That would still do.

I want there to be a mass brawl involving the players, the managers get incensed and end up fighting the ref. The FA then deduct 20 points from each team and fine them each £250, 000 sending Yeovil into a spiralling descent of debt from which they don't recover.

I can't believe I didn't put that as one options....that would be perfect

Interesting ploy, but it would de-value the title for who eventually finishes in top spot. Maybe just deduct 5 points to make it interesting in the final lap.

I think it will be Yeovil to go up, plus 2 others from the current top 7. My guess it will be 2 from Swansea, Scunny and ourselves to go up with Yeovil.

Don't forget Macclesfield....

don't care, the title is coming to the south east whatever the score.

Yeovil 1-0 up - Davies, 31

Yep, that'll do nicely

 

[Clarky_Blues]

Good result that for us!

 

[overseas shrimper]

The result I wanted. Why people think Yeovil will run away with this league, I have no idea. Yes, I think they are still favourites, but not as sure fire as some people think. They've now had a couple of poor results. If this were Scunthorpe... or even us... this would be seen as a major drop in form. Six points, with so many games left, is not a great lead.

I'm not sure if we can reach top spot by the end of the season, but we stand a chance, as do Maccs, Swansea, Scunthorpe and Yeovil... and last nights result really opens it up.
