Tonight’s game

Port vale lead Rotherham 1-0

[Filo]

Rotherham lose

[Chris Black come back]

That effectively means that 3 of the 4 relegation spots are now confirmed. Rotherham have games in hand but also face an 11 point deficit to safety. That means everything is now down to Exeter City escaping relegation.

Looking at the final games for Exeter City, unfortunately for them they are all against sides with something very much to play for - next up is Plymouth (local derby), then Stockport County (need to confirm play off place), then Burton (staving off relegation) and finally Bradford City (by then potentially with automatic a possibility).

I am not hugely hopeful we can pick up many more points on recent dire form but Exeter have to go some way to get much from that group of games. Let's see.

For Bradford to be in with a sniff of automatics by the last day they’d need to win 3 of the next 4 and hope that Cardiff get no more than 1 win in their next 5. Really unlikely to happen. Much more likely that they’ll have an eye on an already confirmed play off place.

We’ve won 3 and drawn 1 out of the last 6, yes the last 2 have been worryingly poor but let’s have context

[Barmby Rover]

Only one relegation place left, which Exeter currently occupy, and we still have 4 points clearance with them only having 4 games to play, most of which are against top 8 teams. I think we are safe enough.

[goalkick]

The big game is now against Northampton a must win.wonder how we stand on the lnjury front.

[Colemans Left Hook]

Exiter beat Plymouth 1-0 away (when anyone could beat them and we were all waiting for the Plymouth revival in the Jan transfer window) so Plym will want revenge on the Exiters and the pleasure of revenge and putting a nail in their coffin.

We would never have lost on Saturday but for the injuries that thug of a centre forward would have been sent off in my world for pushing Pearson into Lo Tala -doing that should be an instant red card - it's called dangerous play -

You should never assume.... this is DRFC remember. 

There will be more drama to come.

Give up, it wasn't even a booking

I agree

[Ian Nimmo]

It was definitely a yellow and definitely dangerous.
It could have been very nasty with both our players being put out of the game, would you have said it wasn’t a yellow if this had been the outcome?

[roversdude]

Tbh I thought at the time Pearson made a bit of a meal of it, I never even noticed any contact with Timmy

It was 2-0 and it was at Exeter.

Plymouth's home record isn't brilliant (16th best in division) and they've actually picked up more points away, but they are in good form overall. 2nd in the 10-game form table, 3rd over the last 6, so hopefully they can do the job on Saturday.

[tommy toes]

Vale aren’t relegated yet They have 21 points to play for and are in decent form.
