If Walsall win tonight it may mean that Burton have something to play for on the final day...

I don't honestly know what is better for us - Shrewsbury going out of the relegation battle or Burton needing to beat us!

Bit of a catch 22. If Shrewsbury lose, it's another team we can possibly catch. If Walsall win, it means Burton are more likely to have to get a win on the final day.

On the other hand, they'd also be under pressure not to bottle promotion, which could well get to them - that said, the pressure of trying to survive could get to us...

I want a draw so Shrews over take Chezzie. Had a bottle on Chezzie for relegation at 40! Like to see them move down a place.

Post by: i_ateallthepies on April 26, 2016, 07:45:30 pm
I'll go with that.  Pressure will be on our lot against Burton if we're still in with a chance.  Pressure on Burton would be better for us than them in party mood.
Title: Re: Walsall v Fleetwood Town
Post by: GazLaz on April 26, 2016, 07:47:39 pm
We can still catch Shrews if they draw. We need Bury to turn up on Saturday, they've been poor for a while now, if they beat Chez and we lick Crewe it's game on. Bradford are flying at the minute and they will beat Chezzy on the last day.

We need to put a few past Crewe Saturday and give us that edge on the GD.

I think I would rather Shrewsbury lose as that means there is another team we can catch.

Burton having something to play for means they can't afford not to try to win?  Either way, WE still need to win our games...

Some of the bottom sides will win games, can't all lose every game. I'd rather it was Shrews that won and left the losing to Blackpool and Chesterfield!

At least those teams are not playing each other, and it is not that unusual to lose 2 on the bounce.

Post by: DonnyOsmond on April 26, 2016, 08:14:29 pm
I'd rather we had as many chances as possible.

Walsall beat Shrewsbury. Fleetwood draw against Walsall and Burton beat Gillingham meaning Burton were up before the last game and we have a five horse race.

Simple we win both games the 4 teams above get no more than
a draw we will overtake all of them
2 on GD
2 on PTS
Blackpool could even win one.

Post by: IDM on April 26, 2016, 08:43:29 pm
Looking at the goal difference, and IF we win both our games, then we can "afford" for both Chesterfield and Shrewsbury to draw one game each.

We can do nowt until Saturday though!
Title: Re: Walsall v Fleetwood Town
Post by: The Red Baron on April 26, 2016, 08:44:56 pm
On balance a defeat for Shrewsbury can't do any harm to our cause.

Probably best to see where we are on Saturday evening, and if we've won, on Monday.

On an optimistic note, the Burton game on the final day has the look of last season's Colchester v Preston to me. We know what happened next...

Yeah, as long as we win both games. From the last two games...

18. Chestefield are allowed to pick up 1 point
19. Shrewsbury are allowed to pick up 1 point
20. Fleetwood are allowed to pick up 2 points
21. Blackpool are allowed to pick up 5 points (mathematically can only pick up 4)

As long as 2 of these happen we'll be OK.

Chesterfield - 50
Bury - H
Bradford - A

Shrewsbury - 50
Peterborough - H
Swindon - A

Fleetwood - 48
Walsall - A
Crewe - H

Blackpool - 46
Wigan - H
Peterborough - A

Fleetwood are probably safe and Blackpool are probably down. Chestefield or Shrewsbury only picking up at most a point seems like the best chance.

I keep saying that most games that are won or lost are decided by a single goal margin.

f**king Gillingham, eh?

They've only lost 2 home games all season against sides in the bottom half of the table. Chesterfield and Shrewsbury.

And of course, they beat us courtesy of a very questionable goal.
Title: Re: Walsall v Fleetwood Town
Post by: Padge_DRFC on April 26, 2016, 09:39:57 pm

Title: Re: Walsall v Fleetwood Town
Post by: BillyStubbsTears on April 26, 2016, 09:49:24 pm
We've got to take it as read that we overtake Blackpool. I honestly can't see us catching 2 of the other 3.

Catching Blackpool plus 1 other is a 25% chance if we win both of our games.

Post by: DonnyOsmond on April 26, 2016, 09:49:54 pm
On Saturday Blackpool play Wigan, we play Crewe. We should leapfrog Blackpool after then, but then again this is football and we'll probably end up relegated by the end of Saturday. Potentially we could be joint 20th by the end of that day.

I don't honestly know what is better for us - Shrewsbury going out of the relegation battle or Burton needing to beat us!

But Walsall  winning tonight also means they will be up for the Fleetwood game on Monday because they still have a chance of catching Burton.Hopefully doing us another favour beating them.
