Second

[The Turpinator]

We will be going to Cardiff second in the table.

Yeovil 5 Mansfield 2
Northampton 1 Scunny 2

But Lincoln scored a last minute winner (og actually) & beat Swansea 1-0.

1. Yeovil 75 (+21)
2. SUFC 74 (+21)
3. Scunny 72 (+19)
================
4. Swans 71 (+19)
5. Macc 69 (+14)
6. Lincoln 68 (+19)
7. Darlo 64 (+4)
================
8. Northampton 63 (+6)
9. Wycombe 61 (+7)
10. Rochdale 60 (+2)

Still looking good for us, though, with game in hand vs Macc & Yeovil at home to come!

Apart from our unbeaten run we've been looking for other teams above us to slip up over recent weeks which they've all done. They couldn't all keep losing.

2 months ago we could only dream about automatic promotion now we're looking at the title. Let's get one thing at a time. 3 pts at home on Friday would be a start.

Has anyone worked out how many points we need to guarantee automatic promotion?

85

I think the average for third place (at least for the last few years - i'm sure someone can correct me?) has been 81 points.

Great if we beat Orient so we can rub it in and chant "We are top of the league".

With northampton losing we have now (1pt away) obtain at worse play off place.

85 points will guarantee third place as the maximum Swansea and Macclesfield can obtain in their remaining games is 84 ...

Orient surely don't have the quality to complete later this week?!
