One last roll of the dice

[1955pie]

I give Notts a 50/50 chance of a win Saturday.
I give Cambridge 1 chance in 3 - Macclesfield will be under tremendous pressure because they are the favourites.

That makes it 1 chance in 6 for us.

So roll that dice - - Is it a six??

Another thought, is anyone out there going to Macclesfield to support Cambridge?

Colin Calderwood played for Mansfield and was on loan at Notts and Forest so must have some heart in Nottingham. He said they're going for a win so fingers crossed. Tricky game for Macc as they ideally need to go for a win as drawing with 10 minutes to go could go either way. With the lack of paid wages in the back of their minds as well.

As for us who knows what team will turn up.

This may be a silly question but NA interview had me thinking again.

Obviously if we go out of the league we lose the "Oldest professional league club" tag, if we were to come back do we get it back?
Initially I thought so as we'd still be the oldest and in the league. NA alluded that that tag would be gone as in a sense that we'd start at year 1 again. We aren't a phoenix club so that's not right is it?

Just change it to "Oldest founder members of the Football League".

Just change it to "Oldest founder members of the Football League".

Just use the has-always-been-far-more-impressive-anyway 'World's Oldest Professional Football Club' instead.

Exactly.

Sheffield are the "World's Oldest Amateur Football Club."

We are the "World's Oldest Professional Football Club."

This won't change if we're relegated.

We SHOULD still sign professional footballers and (hopefully) pay a professional wage so the oldest thing is cast iron.

Seriously considering it actually! I can't face the 3 hour drive back from Swindon if we go down but I can be home from Macc in 25 mins

The mans deluded. He will be happy with a draw...Even though we get relegated.
