How's this for a final day scenario? FGR 2 points ahead of City and Port Vale. Mansfield in fourth 2 points behind City/Vale..

If Mansfield beat FGR then the winner of City-Vale wins the title, but the loser doesn't even make the autos.
Please god no.

We will be over the line long before then……another Mansfield loss and 81 will give us a top three finish…..unless either Rovers or Northampton win all their remaining games.

Unless the wheels fall off and axels break we will be over the line long before then……another Mansfield loss and 81 will give us a top three finish…..unless either Rovers or Northampton win all their remaining games accumulating a possible of 82 points. Bottom line 84 is currently the magic figure always supposing Mansfield win their remaining games.

Mansfield lose one and it’s 81 any points dropped by Rovers and Northampton and the maximum we will need will remain at 81. So realistically the magic number looks as if it will be 81.

Correct. It would take something catastrophic for us not to make autos. Not only would we need to pick up less than 4 points from the 15 available but the sides from 4th down would also need to go on an incredible run. It's in the bag without it actually being mathematically in the bag.

Ideally we want to see both Rovers and Northampton drop some points as soon as possible Rovers v Vale best result for us a draw then we need one of Northampton’s games to end in a draw.

Having said that with two homes games on the horizon we should have knocked Rovers and Northampton hopefully also Mansfield out of the picture with still two games left to play and then be concentrating on pipping FGR to the post and the Championship…….UTC.
