Next four games...

Post by ID »

Histon (a)
Tamworth (a)
Gateshead (h)
Alty (a)

IMO we need the maximum 12 points from these games, 10 at worst.

As well as having to make up for our lost points (re: Chester), these are our 'easy' games - after this we play Oxford, Wimbledon and K*ttering again. We really need to win these games if we are to have any chance of reaching the play-offs.

I'll be at Histon, hopefully we'll get 100-200 fans at the game (it's not far!) to help kick-start us on another winning run to take us into the season run-in.

Hope to be at both Histon and tamworth and it'll be interesting to see how we do now we're through the period of difficult games which I think we've done well in them, with 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss and the only goal conceded was a dire decision, which is 1 of only 3 goals we've conceded in 8 games! So I fully expect us to get at least 9/10 points in the next 4 games before another huge 3 games at the end of March as you say, the playoff dream is still very much alive :D

i'll be at Histon and Tamworth. Histon are a better team than perhaps some of us are giving them credit for. Id be astounded if we won that without Stuart.

We are really getting down to the nitty gritty now. I think on paper Tamworth, Alty and Histon away are all tough games. I think this time last year we would all have happily taken 4 points from these sort of games altogether and a home win v Gateshead. Even now that would not be a bad return, but in the position we are in we really need more, but I have no doubt JEMS and the boys have it in them.
