    Definitely was 3pm. I've just checked the match day program that I have framed in my man cave.

    Just looking back over the last few years for number of points needed to secure the runners up spot in League One, it could be anywhere between 83/4 and 93/4.

    Even if we were able to replicate in the final thir**** matches the same performance as in the last thir**** - 30 points out of a possible 39, a massive ask - we would perhaps accumulate 89 points in total. That might just be enough but, with at least four teams fighting it out for an automatic place, I suspect the points required for the runners up spot is going to be towards the top end of that historical range - and may be just outside our reach...

    ...but anything could happen...

    Coversley I think it will be lower this year! because there is so many teams hitting form and on great runs trying to get into the play offs, that there will be many dropped points, unfortunately we have to play most of these away !

    Plymouth,Southend,Gillingham, Northampton, not to mention Wigan and Charlton !!

    I think Shrews will dip out because they are sim ply not good enough constant petty fouling going unpunished by refs will only take you so far. I suspect that Hursty knows that this is the only way his squad can play to get results. It will be difficult to catch Blackburn and Wigan however. I think Wigan still being in the cup will help us as this will distract them from the league as has shown of late. It would be great for us if they could beat man city and get to the 6th round but it wont happen. Maybe a draw against Man city might help us for a couple of weeks.The other hope is for Blackburn and Wigan to have injuries to key p;layers eg Dack for Blackburn.
