Interesting bst.If your prediction for the bottom two turns out to be correct then we would need just ten more points to stay up.Ten points from 18 matches.If we can’t achieve that we don’t deserve to stay up.

We have played 10 of the top 11 sides away from home already, so if it's at all possible, we have an easier run in than it could have been...
If Sutton continue at a point per game they get 39. And more if they beat us. Drawing against Barrow, Mansfield and Walsall is very good going for them.I’m looking at Grimsby. They don’t appear to have had a new manager bounce. Artell is more of a long term planner than someone like Cotterill at FGR who can motivate and organise to get a tune short term.With Wimbledon’s downturn in form and selling their star player the Iraqi International I think that makes that fixture a bit easier.We really could have done with playing Walsall when they were out of form but they postponed it. They would demolish us now.With their upturns in form I think Sutton and Salford away are hard fixtures now.How many points do we get out of:Sutton (A)Tranmere (H) - they’ve really picked upSalford (A)Grimsby (A)Wimbledon (H)

I fully expect us to stay up. Im not overly concerned about relegation at this stage.
I put a bet on with a forum member with monies going to the Academy so at least I kept the bet ‘in house’ & not padding the wallets of bookies.It hurts nonetheless though how badly we’ve capitulated this season. I think in truth it’s had us all scratching our heads.The bet ‘included’ Ironside scoring more than 10 goals from open play. We’ve eighteen games to go & he’s ‘stuck’ on seven.It’s all on you Joe!

For that to happen, nr, would require either that Rovers get at least one win or go on a five match unbeaten run. Why do I not feel optimistic about either?
