At the moment I'm only worrying about us, but that could change come mid April.

Just thinking about Lester running at our defence leaves me in a cold sweat and I think they have a real chance of reaching the play-offs.

They haven't been eating chunks out of us yet, but they have Shrews & Dags

Game congestion will play a part and they will probably fade like other teams over the years.

As a reply to the OP. If Chesterfield catch us and overtake us, then we don't deserve it anyway!

Forget those behind and look to those ahead of us.

Or the could just sneak in there on the last day of the season like a lot of other teams have over the years.

I wasn't surprised at the Bournemouth result earlier this week. I kinda expected it.

A team that are fighting for survival are much more dangerous than a team playing for promotion.

If we want 3rd place, i'd say we definately need to get 3 points tomorrow with our remaining fixtures looking quite tough.

I picked them when we played them away and have seen nothing to make me change my mind.

Simples.

Sorry, but Chesterfield have too much to do. At least 2 games a week until the end of the season is going to mean injuries, tired & booked players, dropped points and a mid-table finish.

Dont look back, IMO Chesterfield have too much to do in the run-in, games in hand yes, but they will be played very close together and thats not ideal so we shouldnt be worried

RIP Stanno, City Legend never to be forgotten
The form table shows that the loss to Bournemouth wasn't extremely surprising......
