I did a little joke acca yesterday with all the possible results I wanted

Chesterfield win or draw
Newport win or draw
Grimsby win or draw
Rovers win or draw.

Came in at 7/1

I won almost the same bet, albeit having the Carlisle match instead of the Newport game. A nice little winner!

No they don’t, they are currently only 4 points behind.

I remember spending a lot of time on Excel several seasons in succession when we were in the Championship working on permutations of this kind. Thank you people for doing all the work this time. I just hope they’ll reach League 1 this time and give us a tilt at the Championship before I depart this world!

RTID is in point!

Accrington still need a point to be sure safety, they will be fighting for their EFL lives, don’t expect them to roll over for Wallsall, I their game will end in a draw.

 This brings back memories of 2016/17 when we finished 3rd in a one horse race for the title, I hope it doesn't happen again.    :coat:

Not really - the last 5 games were an anti climax for sure, but we’d smashed all the rest at 2ppg and 2 goals per game as far as I can remember.

I get what you’re saying but I don’t agree your sentiment. 

Why would any promotion be shit?

Agree it was a pretty shit end to the year, probably helped by the fact we expected to walk League Two.
Note: Fergie stayed one year after, we finished 15th in League One.

We were great that season. Best team in the league by a mile. We would finish first in a 1 horse race this season and we weren’t even the 1 horse!

This season I agree, promotion is the goal, being champions would be the cherry on top. That season, coming third felt like a defeat

This. If we win the league, spare a thought for the Walsall fans and also for the bookies that paid out in January on Walsall as Champions.

Nah, stuff 'em.

Perhaps we don’t like one horse races. Currently as it stands with just 2 games left, 4 teams can win the title and 6 still have a chance of automatic. The top of lg2 and bottom of championship is where all the excitement is… and we’re right in the thick of it…bring it on

For me, it would be nice to win the title but all I want is promotion, I can’t sit and watch another season of teams plonking 10 men behind the ball every week!
