Yes, but if it ends against one of them it would seriously harm our chances of promotion. Got to win all of them I feel, but I know the lads are capable.

Sileby were on a run until we showed them how to play football. Oadby will be thinking the same as us, that our game with them will be a crunch match. It is a chance for us to end their run. We are good enough to beat anyone.

Of course, i think 1 or 2 defeats and promotion is all but over

That's pretty much the case for all four teams. Oadby have still got Eynesbury at home and Harrowby away, Eynesbury have got Oadby and Harrowby away and Sileby at Home. Pretty much every game from here on in, the fans must be the 12th man, especially in the next two home games.

Same. I can only see Oadby dropping a maximum of 2 points in all their other games, so it's down to us to draw and at least get a result from them. I think Sileby look fragile though, I do think they will drop a 2-4 in their other games, they've had too many close calls for them not to slip up just once. Eynesbury will lose to Oadby and won't beat Harrowby (they look really strong atm).

We've just won 11 games on the trot ! We need to win 11 more and we go up, simples - thats what I'm focusing on. I don't care what anyone else does, I just have faith that our lads can can repeat what has happened these past few weeks. We're stronger and more organised than when we last met Oadby (our last defeat) and Eynesbury (our first defeat). We showed against Sileby what we're capable of, we don't have to fear anyone. I've said for weeks I believe we can still win the title, to do that we will have to win those final 11 games - we CAN do that !!

We have the players, belief and ability to win all the remaining 11 matches of the season and that is beyond debate. Whether we do is an entirely different matter. As Jimmy Greaves once said 'Football is a Funny Old Game'. Who would have placed a bet at the beginning of the season on a FA Cup Semi-Final Tie between Wigan and Millwall or Bradford City playing in a League Cup Final at Wembley?

All Starms and the players can do is focus on one match at a time to remain in the 'zone'. ;)
