Tonight's League 1 Fixtures - Tuesday 5th April 2011

[Wilka]

Bournemouth would do well to finish in the play offs at this rate. Still a good season for them if you think how far they have come.

Wins for Real, Saints and Posh returns me 40 quid from 10, so that's a nice consolation for Saints expected win.

Elsewhere, terrible night for bmuff - losing at Bristol rovers while orient and rochdale both winning to close right behind them. What will massively piss them off is they were bang in form, under howe, and rovers on their knees when that game was contraversially called off for a waterlogged pitch.

Shame wednesday won by so many but I'm glad they did win, as they don't need a result so badly now on Saturday.

I agree we have some spectacularly arrogant fans on here but the argument tonight is about looking at the stats and drawing logical conclusions, NOT hysterical doom-mongering

Which is why I'm confused that some people are sarcastically suggesting that people are doommongering.

And to clear up my last post - I'm fairly confident we will be champions, I don't like people assuming that everyone who isn't so confident are negative, doom-mongerers and sarcastic or over-the-top responses to posts like this are pretty tedious.

Listening to the Bristol Rovers commentary....bloody hell this is nerve wracking!!!

Drinks on you?

i dont really think its hysterical doom-mongering either to be honest ian - that, for me, would be saying we are totally going to blow promotion and southampton are going to walk away with the title while we face another year of league one

people such as myself and sheebs are merely pointing out that if things go southamptons way, coupled with a win at withdean (not beyond the realms of possibility), then they will have closed us down to seven points. win three games we don't (draw at home to huddersfield, away to colchester and one other) and they would overtake us

unlikely, yes. but its not impossible. and i dont think its hysterical to be a little bit worried that it could

 

[Mackenzie]

Indeed.

Although I wasn't waiting for the Rovers result, I just don't like Bournemouth

 

[Don Quixote]

We will go up as champions, nothing to see here.

Can't believe Bournemouth are now facing being knocked out of play-off spots. I know a lot, myself included, predicted they'd be out the automatic run-in, especially after Howe left, but I didn't think they'd fall so low. Worryingly for them they seem to still be in freefall, whilst Rochdale and Orient are still picking up points (although Orient seem to have gone off the boil a bit as well recently, despite win tonight).

Just to update the "teams that can't catch us" we can't now finish any lower than Fourth. also it's a four way fight got the last two play off spots. Dons are definitely in danger of being caught by Dale and Orient

Not forgetting that Huddersfield and Posh have to play each other on Saturday.

 

[KLF]

I'm still confident of going up as Champions, but am slightly worried now that Weds have hit form and will spoil our "unbeaten at home for a year" party we were going to have on Saturday evening...

 

[GT49er]

Well.that's one less - Bournemouth can't catch us now - only three teams left who can - and they're fighting over second place (hopefully!) Posh and Stains giving it a go - but they're running out of games...................fingers crossed!

I hadn't !

 

[ali jenkins]

Dont we still only need 4 wins out of 7 games to win the title? regardless of what Saint or Hudds do? They could both win the rest of their games 5-0, including the two against us, and it wouldnt matter!

 

[Beach Hut]

The more interesting point is the harder games they have coming up and the fact we are along way ahead of them, don't panic

 

[hans kraay fan club]

It would bloody well matter to me.

 

[saafend_seagull]

I think we will have to win 8 points for the title (if we draw v saints), 5 for promotion.

Sheff Wed - 1
Dagenham - 3
Walsall - 1
Soton - 1
Colchester - 1
Huddersfield - 0
County - 3

94 points

 

[Beach Hut]

If you think things through Huddersfield v Peterborough means either two dropped points each or 3 to one and 0 to the other.

Means one or other that wins still has a hell of a lot of catch up.

 

[saafend_seagull]

Although if Soton win away to Orient, and Rochdale, I will be worried, unless we win our two of course!
