Tues 25th/Sat 29th fixtures

[thewwfc]

I'm sure usually it doesn't take this long to get everyone up to a level pegging when it comes to # of games played...perhaps I only notice it because I'm knocking together these fixture threads though.

Anyway:


TUESDAY 25TH APRIL
Barnsley v Ipswich Town
Bolton Wanderers v Accrington Stanley
Lincoln City v Burton Albion
Oxford United v Cheltenham Town
Plymouth Argyle v Bristol Rovers

SATURDAY 29TH APRIL
Accrington Stanley v Cambridge United
Bolton Wanderers v Fleetwood Town
Charlton Athletic v Port Vale
Derby County v Portsmouth
Forest Green Rovers v Oxford United
Ipswich Town v Exeter City
Milton Keynes Dons v Barnsley
Morecambe v Lincoln City
Peterborough United v Bristol Rovers
Plymouth Argyle v Burton Albion
Shrewsbury Town v Sheffield Wednesday
Wycombe Wanderers v Cheltenham Town

We get to play our first dead rubber in about 4 or 5 seasons (I think?) as we've either been challenging for promotion, or trying to avoid relegation (in our lone Championship season) right until the end of the season of late.

We've got a good chance of losing it too, because of three words: Alfie Fucking May.

He's depressingly prolific against us and I see no reason why that won't continue on Saturday.

 

[Si Robin]

And a sterling job you've done since Stroud gave up the ghost.

Whilst we can now relax and be on the beach for the last 3 games, Wade would love to beat last season's points total (56) so that requires two wins and a draw.

Oxford are desperate for points, so it will be a really tough game tomorrow night. I suspect we'll get a draw though.

Saturday, I fully expect Wycombe to beat us, but another high-scoring draw wouldn't surprise me - maybe not the 5-5 of last season though.

 

[Laker]

We’re all Cheltenham and Bolton tomorrow night, right?

Edit: our game at Accrington on Saturday is the definition of 6 pointer.

 

[valefan16]

Guess our fixture at Charlton will depend a lot on tomorrow in terms of giving Plant or McDermott a go and changing it up a bit. If mathematically safe we want to see them get more minutes, Plant was outstanding at Ipswich and unlucky to be dropped at the weekend and looks a real talent. (Rare that we have one that hasn’t been nabbed up by Man City like Ndala!)

 

[kieran_vale]

Looking forward to Saturday. Pretty much nothing riding on the game but an away game in London is always a favourite for me. Hopefully we give our academy lads a good go for the last two.

Elsewhere this is make or break week for Oxford you’d feel. Four points I think will have them looking ok. Should also be a great occasion at Barnsley on Tuesday.

Well I'm all Rovers but as you wish

 

[TractorBoys]

Can't for tomorrow night under the lights. Going with a good group of lads and we're taking 5k which is our full allocation - win tomorrow and we're nearly there. Should be a great game with both sides going full tilt. They've lost 10 games this season though, nothing to fear.

 

[Bartonyellow]

Lincoln away.
Given up on predictions.
4 games left and should win 1 or 2 of them

 

[UppaTowen_ITFC]

All about tomorrow for us. Our biggest game in years and years and years. Arguably since we beat them in the playoff final in 2000.

We win and we’re all but up. I think draw though. Which isn’t a bad result at all.

Tbh even if you lose tonight you should still go up, just might be in 2nd rather than 1st. Fleetwood could be a tricky place to go needing a win on the final day though.

Are you taking 5000 ? Strange no one has mentioned it before

 

[Luke Imp]

Home to Burton. We were terrible at their place on Boxing Day and against them at home last season when they won 3-1.

With a full XI out on Saturday and 6 of the 7 subs from the academy, Kennedy will be hoping to have some of the walking wounded back for this!

Would be nice to remain in 10th place by 10pm.

 

[K-Win]

We've sold plenty of tickets for our game at Derby. A lot of these were bought when it looked like it might be a big playoff-place battle. Sadly, our predictable collapse in form means that quite a few will likely be unused unless they've managed to sell at a knock-down price.

2-0 win for Derby against a lacklustre Pompey desperate to end another wasted season.

 

[Jamo]

We win and we’re all but up. I think draw though. Which isn’t a bad result at all.

I'm a bit annoyed that it's (just about) a dead rubber for us, could work in our favour if the expectation and pressure of not letting down 5k travelling supporters gets to your lads, I've seen nothing to suggest that could happen though. Have a safe journey and enjoy the day/night (with the exception of 19.45-21.45 tonight...)

We'll draw I think.

It's the best we can hope for barring an anomaly in front of goal.

Cheers. Am on way ‘oop north’ as we go.

Been to your ground twice before, a 1-1 with a 96th minute equaliser from ourselves and a 2-1 win where we came back from 1-0 at halftime. Would be delighted with either of those shorelines today.

Barnsley on sea, lovely this time of year

Depends how many of our 11 injured players return I guess, did amazingly well to beat Wycombe without them on Saturday.

 

[Gassy]

Got parents evening tonight so won’t be able to watch most of it. Bit gutted, tonight should be a fantastic atmosphere

 

[Pompeyblueboy]

2-0 win for Derby against a lacklustre Pompey desperate to end another wasted season.

They are completely sold out with no returns. Its our final away game of the season so there were always going to sell out. We've not played at Derby since the Prem days.

The season is dead for us but keep the faith mate one nil to Pompey

 

[kieran_vale]

Huge goal for Oxford. Nice finish from the clip shown on SSN.

Slow going for goals in the other games.

 

[huddsmoose]

FFS Cheltenham and Bolton.

 

[stevowanderer]

This ref is killing us tonight. They're taking forever on every throw in, goal kick and set piece. They're man handling us and he's giving nothing. They have players going down for the physio every 5 mins for a water break and to break momentum. I hate watching games like this. And now they have a lead to hold on to as well....

 

[Si Robin]

Clear foul in the build-up, but a cracking finish by the Oxford lad.

 

[GeneralLee]

Look at us scoring a goal and stuff.

 

[CTFCfan99]

Only seen the last 20 odd minutes but a very 'meh' performance from us, Oxford way more up for it. They'll see this out comfortably I think.

 

[Si Robin]

Oxford the better team in the first half - they clearly want it more (for obvious reasons). They still look a bit concerning in defence though and we've had a couple of chances. A bit more intensity from us in the second half and there's no reason we can't get back into the game.

 

[Super_horns]

Looking good for Ipswich .

You’d think Plymouth will break through v 10 men .

 

[Jamo]

Well, looks like we're rolling over and letting Ipswich and their 17 million fans win on their big day out. Sorry Plymouth/Wednesday.

We lost this game as soon as the original was called off.

 

[CTFCfan99]

Wow, just seen Accrington are winning at Bolton. Things could get very very interesting at the bottom if they hold on, even more so if we can get an equaliser.
