    Most important game of the season!

    Is it fair to say that Saturdays game against MK is the most significant game of the season?

    Regardless what happens on Tuesday night we have effectively at least 10point advantage over MK (if you include our vastly superior goal difference). Therefore I would suggest with a draw and more so with a win the gap will be too much for them to overcome.

    Therefore you want your best eleven on the field on Saturday. My best eleven of those most likely to be available are

    Vickers

    Harding/Icky/Wood

    Ogbene/Wiles/Barlaser/Rathbone/ Ferguson

    Smith and Ladapo.


    Therefore on Tuesday I would rest the following:-
    Wood replaced by Macdonald or Reg
    Ogbene replaced by Tutu
    Barlaser replaced by Lindsay
    Rathbone replaced by Odoffin
    Smith replace by Kayode


    You know it makes sense!

    Fair assessment I reckon Warney will consider resting key players

    You could take the alternate view? Of the 12 games left, 6 are against top half teams and 6 are against bottom half teams. Win the 6 against Shrewsburyx2, Burton, Charlton, Lincoln and Gillingham and we'll be promoted with ease. Picking up points in the other 6 will secure the title. Maybe Tuesday is more important?

    The next one is the most important. We need 6 wins from any of them.

    Beat the easier sides and don't lose vs to ones at the top
    In a very short time the others will run out of games to catch us

    Beat Shrewsbury and pressure largely off for MK match for me. Win it will be 15 points, draw 12, and lose 9. Hardly the end of the world. As long as we beat Shrews the worst we can end the weekend is 9 clear of MK.

    Shrews bigger game in a strange way, in my opinion. Lose that and then the pressure to not lose against MK will ramp up. 6 points feels a lot closer than 9.

    Why worry about them anyway, we gubbed them at franchiseville, and they will be more worried about us. We're the best team in this division and have been all season let's go for the 100 points. UTM
