Steve Buckley’s Dog Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Anything can happen. Lose at Portsmouth and Bolton win their next two and we won’t be quite as confident or comfortable! You just want Matchdays to keep coming round! TomTom92 and Crewton 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norman Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 2 wins and a draw will do it. 88 points. Don't think anyone else will get more than 87 points now. Bolton haven't won away in 8 games and Peterborough and Barnsley won't get more than 5 wins and a draw each in 7 games. I'm usually pessimistic in my outlook, generally, but I think we are going to finish top 2 now.

Bolton have 9 first teamers out injured and if they still managed to win their next 2 and we lost at Pompey, they would have to turn their goal difference to be better than ours. They would still have Pompey and Peterboro to play in their last 4 games. McMuffin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they would only need to pick up one more point than us over the final four games to make goal difference irrelevant. As you say though, they have a tough couple of games ahead so I think we would still be favourites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapeTownRams Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 My biggest worry now is that what was going to be a real last-game thriller between Posh and Bolton might now be a lot easier for Bolton with Posh destined for the playoffs and resting /protecting players for them.

Worry not. They’ll both be resting/protecting players for the play offs by then. 😀 Premier ram, Elwood P Dowd and Rammy03 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MackworthRamIsGod Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 We need to avoid defeat tomorrow. Bolton have clawed some of that goal difference back, which could be vital come final game. europia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millenniumram Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 We’ve really put pressure on ourselves by not beating Northampton. If we had, tomorrow would be a free hit. As it stands, I don’t think we can afford to lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamFan13 Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Massive game tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich84 Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Reading just seemed to give up once the 3rd goal went in, Bolton should have conceded a 6th at the end also, could be a massive miss as that 1 goal could have a bearing on final positions..... I think we could scrape a win tomorrow though, taking the wind out of their sails! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammy03 Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 I don't think too much has changed. I expected Bolton to win this game. Even if we were to lose tomorrow and Bolton win on Saturday we'd still be above them going into four very winnable fixtures against their tougher fixtures. A point or more tomorrow would be fantastic. FlyBritishMidland, Crewton, Tamworthram and 5 others 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crewton Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Bolton still have Portsmouth to play at home and Peterborough away, whilst Peterborough have to go to Oxford when they should still be very much fighting for 6th place. Barnsley go to Portsmouth, Stevenage, Charlton and Blackpool. After tomorrow, we have mid-table Wycombe a few days after they play a Wembley final, Orient and Carlisle at home, neither of whom will have anything but pride to play for, and Cambridge away who could well be safe by then. A point tomorrow would be very useful, but there's still some tricky games for each of our rivals to play.

The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Love games like tomorrow night. Full ground, lots of passion,and all to play for. Time to look the opposition in the eye and don't back down.

DCFC1388 Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Id take 2 points from these 2 away games with 3 very winnable games after. That way even if Bolton win on Sat we will be 2 points ahead of them, yes they will have a game in hand but the next game they would have Pompey & we have Leyton Orient at home so it could be that we will be 4 or 5 points ahead before their game in hand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
