Genuine question but what is the best result tomorrow - a low score win or a draw?
The obvious answer would be a win. However, I think that if we had a narrow lead from the first leg, we would more likely to sit back and protect what we have, whilst Coventry could be fired up with a 'nothing to lose' attitude.
If we are playing the 2nd leg with a draw, it is black and white (pardon the pun) in that we know what we need to do.
Or am I just talking bullocks?

Let's try the third option - a high score win.Originally Posted by JulesGouls72

2 cup finals coming up hopefully followed by a 3rd, would take a draw tomorrow night and banish the ghosts of the opening day... Yeovil rattled 6 in there just a short while ago so I hope the boys have no fear... our home form has been very good so tomorrow could be pivotal

Seriously though folks, the bookies have us as the least likely to win promotion. Could this be because having played the other three teams twice, these team's managers have us sussed out as a long ball team and will adjust their tactics to suit? This one-dimensional play may have come back to bite us on the bum. It looks to me as if the bookies think so.

Sorry Laxton, but you don't seem to understand the way the bookies operate. The bookies don't think anything, they don't give a flying f*ck who goes up, if they have done their job properly they will make a profit whichever of the four teams win the final. A couple of them have Exeter as the outsiders, and a few others rate us as having an equal chance to Exeter.

You know much more than I do about the way bookies operate, EP, all I know is what I've read on these forecast sites and what the ones I've read forecast. Some of these bookies must be almost human and have calculations based on more than just current form.
For what it's worth, EP, I can't make head nor tails of that link.

Well we could argue Lincoln haven’t beaten us and the other two teams we have won and lost in both games so none of them have had the upper hand over us.
BUT as we all know the play offs are a different ball game if honest I’d be well happy with a draw tomorrow.

That's pretty much my point. The bookies don't need any calculations other than the one where they pay out 90% of what they take in.
