I've amended it so even the illiterate can read it now

Erm they can't, unless you've drawn a picture or something.

The scenario is pretty simple, if you pick up 3 more points then us in 5 games you win the league. If we beat Oldham I think we'll get 6-10 points, so you'll need to win 3 or 4.

That makes 2 people on this site illiterate. Nice work, Chris.

We need to gain 2 more points than FGR and a much better goal difference or 3 more points than you get. I then gave percentages from the site of the liklihood. What is the manure in your village doing to your brain?

You've missed the point, Mr Genius.

Yes I got that. The percentages just back up my estimate, that you will probably need at least 9 points to win the title, 4 wins and you're favourites.

What's the percentage that you'll ever learn when and where to correctly use the word illiterate btw? 0/2 so far, which means using the available data and factoring previous examples of your ability to learn stuff, that it currently translates as an estimate of around 0%.

You didn't do maths, or English at school did you? And here I was thinking it was compulsory. I'll give you 24 more hours..

Looking at the last few messages is Devon Lad ok? Does he need some sort of intervention?
He's a Jordan Petersen fan, I think his whiner supreme guru sets a fine example of going on about how to be a man then crying like a c*** and going on a drugs bender at the first sign of life not going the easy way he's used to.

The blatant goal not given and the subsequent result is probably our season defining moment, I think Mansfield will do very well to finish in the play-offs now, I just don’t think we will recover from that today.

It’s not all the officials fault obviously, we are not clinical enough and Clough keeps leaving our best midfielder on the bench, I wish they would ask him why in the post match interview.

From being in the bottom two, having a shot at automatic and now in a battle for a play-off spot it’s been a crazy season, and I’ll take ya hand off to lose in the play-off semi-finals to Sutton right now!

Cue us losing 10-0 at the Gas next week…

Seriously though feels like we’ve done it now, absolutely bloody brilliant and with the pressure off the title is definitely in our hands now.
Might have it round my neck but none of the chasers who can get eighty two have anything like a goal difference to pip us, but as you say you wouldn't have expected us to ship four last time out so let's not be hasty.

6 massive points off of playoff rivals very much keeps the dream alive for Sutton.

Whilst Vale are clearly in the driving seat for 3rd still, Northampton, Bristol Rovers and even Sutton will be thinking there’s still a chance

We will be in the Play offs,no doubt, 2 home games now ,cloughie needs to go for it ,but i suppose it all depends on oates coming back ,clough has,nt really helped himself the way he treats johnson but he knows what hes doing as for maris well we all know what hes capable of so its up to nigel ,but i honestly think he may lose a few fans with his intransigence

Right, we deserve a bit of respect. Everyone has written us off time and again (including me/our own fans at points) and there was a pile on on here after the Mansfield game about how crap we were, and yet we will not go away. Other teams who were up there (Swindon, Newport, Tranmere) have fallen away and are battling to get into the playoffs/stay in the last spot and yet we’re bubbling away nicely in 4th with a slim chance of the autos.

21 wins, 21 clean sheets, not bad for a dogshit side.

I'd still take you lot in the play offs. Fair play I expected you to fall away

While it was a disappointing result today it’s still very much in our hands.

At this point there’s no such thing as an easy run-in as everyone will be feeling the pressure. Win at Walsall and I think it might fall on us to finish the job against Newport.

I think FGR pretty much have the title sewn up now as was always the case.

We've only got Harrogate who are on the beach out of our four remaining but as I said, reckon with the pressure off we can pick up a point of three from the trickier looking ties.
ETA Then ship five against Harrogate :D

Im hoping our comfortable win on your own patch will sow a few seeds of doubt into your players for the next few games.
Id love to get autos and see Darrell win the play offs, but annoyingly Sutton and Northampton just aint going away.

I’m hoping if we don’t get the autos we’ll be 4th and 5th, would fancy us against the others below us in the shake up

Its shit or bust for us, we need to get promotion or could lose some decent players in the summer along with the current 3 loan regulars.
