The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

That SHOULD guarantee us a play-off place.

Currently 4th on 70 points.

6th place has 60 points.

So 9 points should do it for us, because the Scum (who are in 6th) can now only get a maximum 15 more points. Meaning 75 (if they win EVERY game left).

Wombles can only get another 21 points. They are currently 7th on 58 meaning if they win their remaining 7 games they can get a maximum 79.

Realistically I think 6 will do it for us, maybe even 3 or 4. I can't see Wombles or the scum getting full points for the remainder of the season, so its looking promising

Time to get 110% behind the team now, its been a great season for the Diamonds, and a great season to be a Rushden supporter. COME ON YOU RUSHDEN!

Doesnt the fact that the Wombles play York mean that we only need 6 points from 6 games?

Not 100% Sure, but i'd say 4 is the bare minimum we need either way.

Its looking good

I dont think we will need a single point personally. AFC, K*ttering, Mansfield - not good enough.

The other teams would need to win almost every game with us getting beaten by the likes of Crawley and Ebbsfleet at home. Not going to happen.

The one thing i really dont want is us to secure our play-off place at Wrexham, because i cant go!

I want Wimbledon to win that one because I want to finish above York and get Oxford in the semis (only because Luton again would be a policing nightmare).

I don't care who we finish above. If we could somehow sneak 3rd i'd be over the moon, because that would mean second leg at home.

Hopefully we can do it at home to Ebbsfleet. Cracking atmosphere that would be. Ohhhh I'm so happy!
