Saturday 1 March fixtures

Well, as someone else already posted earlier in the week, there’s a shitload of six-pointers happening this weekend, at both ends of the table.

Us v Brum
Wxm v Bolton
Burton v Mansfield
Crawley v Cambridge
Exeter v Northampton
Lorient v Charlton
Posh v Shrews

Expecting nothing v Brum and would take a draw.

I feel like we’re better suited to play against teams that don’t just try to shut the game down, so there’s that, but of course Brum’s players are better than ours, man for man.

And Alfie Fucking May has a horrendous tendency to score against us.

Wxm have a very good chance of being level on points with us come 5pm Saturday, though no-one should consider Bolton an easy game.

Stays at home and a return for nige back to where he made himself a legend. Looking forward to this. Should be a decent crowd.
No sentiment here from me. We need the points more than they do. We need to capitalise on their disarray and put them to the sword.
I expect goals and lots of entertainment.
I’ll say a 3-2 win for us.
And I rarely predict us to win.
That might, take us out of the bottom 4 for what seems an eternity.

Bolton are the kind of team we struggle against.
Stockport could be the real winners this weekend. Think they'll beat Blackpool at home. Brum to beat Wycombe with a late goal. Another Racecourse disaster class makes it 3 home league losses in a row for us.

Blackpool have one of the best away records in the league and have lost just 1 out of their last 16.

Yeah I know tough game for you too but think you'll have enough at home to take it

Would normally say i would take a point but with Brum next it has to be three points
Will go there with a strong team and quality to come off the bench.
A few teams seem to be imploding.....Think about 18 teams still have something to play for

Need to win this. No excuses.

Absolutely massive game for both sides. It's been a long time since I've felt this nervous for a game. With Orient, Barnsley and Stockport in the space of a week, it really is make or break.

I think losing to Burton would demoralise the players and fans - it’s one we can win if we play well, it’s just whether they turn up.

As you’d expect from mansfield the away end is of course sold out.

With burton away and wigan at home tuesday we’ve a chance to stop the rot and get some points on the board. Deji returns for our defence so that’s one fit - but it’ll be tough with us being hobbled by the number of injuries we’ve got.

 

[AmberAndy]

Our fan base seem up for the game at Crawley with over 1000 sold as of today. Let’s hope the team are of the same frame of mind. We will no doubt try to replicate the physical, in your face approach that paid dividends against Stockport. Not usually a happy hunting ground for us, but I’m reasonably confident we can get the win this time round. Big Dan Nlundulu will be back from the bench, which means Loft can burn himself out chasing and harrying like he did so well on Saturday. Crawley are no mugs going forward, but look very suspect at the back, so we need to dominate play and pen them back. We cannot afford to lose this one.

What a massive weekend. Would be interesting to see a graph of how the table changes over the day

Even on Saturday with 20ish mins to go, we were 8 points clear of relegation, ended up 3 points off
