Safe to say it’s all about 6th spot

With Peterborough looking good - it’s a race for 6th for whoever wants it . Stevenage in the driving seat but can honestly say I don’t think they have enough to finish it off - so think it’s down to maybe us and Oxford
 
Said the same to my old man, he said how Peterborough won - no point even watching them now. If we're making playoffs it's 6th place we'll be snatching.
 
I must say Oxford look knackered their form is terrible, can’t see them making it. Stevenage have also shown patchy form of late with a few wins here and there, few losses few draws bit like us really. I mean if we win Saturday I’d say that makes us favourites but it’s just whether or not we can close the 4 point gap to stevenage and hope they lose their game in hand which is against Barnsley
 
Dale looked promising for Oxford last week. Initially only a sub .
Seemed to be selected more as a right winger and won them a penalty.
 
Oxford have bipolar. Had a great first half of last season followed by relegation form and seem to be doing similar this season.

It's been an unusually high points per game total for the top 6 this season. Incredible really how so many sides have done so well. It's the business end now though, when sides at the bottom spring surprise wins against top teams and mid table teams go on holiday early. Anything can happen.
 
Every on here all season being footy snobs and knocking Stevenage and expecting them to drop off but it hasn't happened, we are big time right! And yes stating the obvious but 6th place or nowt. I do not expect us to do it, but at least we have something to play for which is a bonus.
 
I just keep hoping we've got another gear to go up in. Gabriel regular starter, Rhodes goals to return, Beesley & Joseph notching, Dembele not injured, Byers getting fully match fit.
If we do grab that 6th spot it will be a hell of a battle to win the play offs. Really impressed by Peterborough.
 
I think it’s between Stevenage, Oxford, us & Orient.

Steve Evans might get distracted over Easter with all the eggs he’ll eat, but they have a style of play and system that’s seen them massively overachieve and our in a great spot.

All we can do is whack the pressure on and hope they crumble.

Saturday is a big one and with the next three games after it away we really need a big result.
