I’d absolutely take third if it was offered.
Got to get out of this shitty league.

Just had the misfortune of watching Man U v Man City, judging on this shocker the premier league is also a Sh*t league

And yes 3rd would be pleasant.

Ive mentioned this before on here but some arsehole decided to book a holiday overseas in May which includes the play off final. It's a long distance so a quick hop back aint happening.

So I'm desperate to finish 3rd or better.

Got to say I would take 3rd from here, I would say it’s going to be between Rovers and Port Vale, it’s almost in our own hands, besides GD it’s that simple, and I would sooner be playing top 7 teams than bottom 7, that way we are taking points off the top teams, if we win or draw, I predicted last season that we would get to the playoffs from a very low position in the league, So I’m going to say that once again we can do it and this time not only win promotion, but win the league on the last day of the season, Win on Saturday at home then away on Tuesday then we will win the title on 84pointsPort Vale 2nd on 82points

I was in a similar position last year, had booked a trip to Budapest a long time before it looked likely that we’d make the play offs. Compounded it by booking an early flight straight back to London (booked just after the semi final first leg) to guard against an extremely expensive last minute cost!

Out of curiosity and  and for accounting purposes please may I ask what the ball said about the Bradford game ?

YES The Walls-all of Jericho came tumbling down ... I think they have 2 wins out of 16 matches

but they have repaired them ....   just look at those easy matches - as I said elsewhere they could win by 2 or 3 points now Crewe have screwed it up - even a loss at Barrow and they could do it with 4 wins 

Sat 12 Apr   A   Barrow   League Two   3pm       
Fri 18 Apr   H   Harrogate Town   League Two   3pm       
Mon 21 Apr   A   Newport County   League Two   12.30pm       
Sat 26 Apr   H   Accrington Stanley   League Two   3pm       
Sat 3 May   A   Crewe Alexandra   League Two   3pm   


expect Vale 2nd or third

Bradford 3rd at very best  but don't think so


Rovers ??  "I couldn't possibly comment"
