    Key fixtures to look out for over next 7 days involving above teams: (top 9 teams in BOLD)


    Thursday 12th April
    —————————-
    Bradford v SHREWSBURY (live on Sky)

    Saturday 14th April
    —————————
    Bristol Rovers v BLACKBURN
    CHARLTON v S****HORPE
    PETERBOROUGH v Rochdale
    PLYMOUTH v PORTSMOUTH
    WIGAN v ROTHERHAM

    Below that are the upcoming fixtures in the next week involving those teams.
    Of particular interest to us in the midweek games is Charlton's ( game in hand over us) visit to AFC Wimbledon.
    Then next weekend not only do we visit Wigan, but other teams in the mix also play each other so of course they can’t both win. Given the fact that we are running out of games and three teams have to overtake us, makes the buffer we have very important. So even if we lose at Wigan next week, not everyone will close in on us. Providing we avoid heavy defeats our better goal difference could be another advantage. So whatever happens mid week / next week-end we will still be 4th . Effectively anything at Wigan is effectively a bonus or a free hit and will consolidate our position.

    Here are the facts & figures:

    TABLE:

    1. Blackburn played 40 - points 85 GD + 39
    2. Wigan played 39 - points 83 GD + 51
    3. Shrewsbury played 40 - points 81 GD + 22
    4. Rotherham played 41 - points 69 GD + 17

    6. Charlton played 40 points 62. GD + 6
    7. Portsmouth played 41 points 62 GD + 4
