    Play-Offs Thread

    I'm pretty much binning off our chances. Charlton have done the double over us already this season, one game of which was an absolute smacking (4-0), and whilst I don't expect things to be that bad again, Mike Dodds has seemingly sapped all the attacking flair out of us. Whereas Charlton have...

    3 May fixtures

    Well, late posting this having been overcome by apathy. The only games that anything major rests on are: Hudds v Orient Reading v Barnsleh Since the last playoff spot is still up for grabs. My only hope for tomorrow is that we can somehow work it out so we are not playing Charlton in the...

    Thu 24/ Sat 26/ Sun 27 Apr fixtures

    Mostly the Brummies' fault that the fixtures have all gone to pot - and to think they didn't even get a Pizza Cup to show for it all. Ha. Anyway, as usual a bunch of crunch fixtures. Gas v Reading - the Gas desperate to stay up, Reading desperate to make the playoffs - must-win for both...

    Easter Monday fixtures

    We continue through the agonising twists and turns of the end of the season on Monday. Those stationed at either end of the table will as ever have almost as much of an eye on other results as their own, but that's the "fun" of this time of year. Blackpool v Wrexham should be a close-run thing...

    Good Friday fixtures

    You’d expect most sides still in the promotion hunt to win here, apart from us v a Bolton side desperate for a playoff spot, and needing the win to avoid their season petering out to nothing. Posh have improved of late but their fixture v Stockport runs the classic “after the Lord Mayor’s...

    Saturday 12 April fixtures

    Infuriatingly, all the promotion contenders have pretty gentle games today, so yet again only a win will be good enough for us unless we are definitively going to sack off all hopes of 2nd. I think Shrews’ return ticket to the basement could be sealed if they lose and the Gas win (obvs the...

    Tuesday 8 April fixtures

    A few teams making up games in hand. Depending on how results pan out, I believe that Brum’s promotion could officially be confirmed today. Big games in the arse end of the playoff hunt for Bolton and Reading. Our auto hopes are progressively fading, but if we could get a result at Hudds then...

    Saturday 5 April fixtures

    2 early kickoffs in the promotion hunt, we face a tricky away game at the home of Select Car Leasing, whereas Wrexham will presumably frolic to a routine grindy win v Burton. I can see wins for most of the top 8 if I'm honest, though Reading and ourselves have a fair chance of cancelling each...

    Tuesday 1 April fixtures

    Well the number of posters sticking on here despite the recent tech cockups has definitely tailed off, but let’s keep going for now. What with recent managerial shenanigans, we get denied Ainsworth’s return to Adams Park, which is a bit of a shame but hey ho. Still a vital game (as are they...

    Thurs 27th/Sat 29th March fixtures

    could really do with Exeter doing us a favour but I can’t imagine we’ll get it. Brovers will be keen to bounce back v Mansfield from their worst performance since the last worst performance evvah… We face mediocrity masters Lincoln City (12th in home form, 13th in away form - smell the...

    Tues 18th/Sat 22nd March fixtures

    Rotherham v us is the only game on this coming Tuesday, therefore lumping Tues and Sat fixtures together. Don’t want to overplay today’s defeat to Wxm, but Tuesday’s game vs Rotherham is vital if we want to stay in with a sniff of the autos…but right now it looks like we are on a dire run of...

    Saturday 15 March fixtures

    Another Six-Pointer Saturday. Bolton v Stockport Cambridge v Posh (game of the day, both a local derby AND a six-pointer) Shrews v Burton and what's that game at the bottom of the list...oh great that Wxm were (apparently, according to their own fans) absolute wank tonight v Reading, but less...

    Tuesday 11 March fixtures

    Only half the league has a game on this time. Will be hoping that Reading do us a favour after our incredibly indifferent showing at London Road today, they are certainly capable enough of the win on their day but can they stymie the curse of the Wxm 1-0? I would say most of the other games...

    Saturday 8 March fixtures

    nice 6-pointers for: Barnsley v Blackpool (if we're counting the mid-table trophy) Stockport v Charlton Exeter v Shrews (David Wheeler w/ a stoppage time winner?) We face a disappointingly resurgent Posh side at London Road, not sure what triggered their recent uptick but I very much hope the...

    Tuesday 4 March fixtures

    A full set of midweek fixtures to chew on. Less red-hot six pointer action than today’s fixtures, but Shrews v Brovers obviously draws the eye at the arse end of the table, with the Gas facing the tantalising prospect of dropping into the bottom four if they lose and Burton win. Speaking of us...

    Saturday 1 March fixtures

    Well, as someone else already posted earlier in the week, there’s a shitload of six-pointers happening this weekend, at both ends of the table. Us v Brum Wxm v Bolton Burton v Mansfield Crawley v Cambridge Exeter v Northampton Lorient v Charlton Posh v Shrews Expecting nothing v Brum and would...

    Tuesday 25 February fixtures

    A few teams playing catch-up on Tuesday night. Hoping for Orient to knacker Brum out as much as possible given that we play the latter on Saturday. Wigan are absolutely horrendous to watch, but are solid defensively, so I'm hoping they can do to Hudds what they did to us and just slow...

    Sat 22/Sun 23 February fixtures

    Few promotion clashes there: Reading have still got an outside shot at playoffs but will have to be well on it to get anything from Brum. Bolton v Orient should be a decent top-half faceoff Down at the other end, Cobblers v the Gas should be a nervy affair as the two sides look to claw some...

    Tuesday 18 February fixtures

    Only half of the teams have a midweek game this time round, catching up games in hand. Probably a good time for Brovers to play us, at a point where our home form has turned mediocre, Kone is crocked, and their form is on an upturn. We’ll certainly have to be far more on our game on Tuesday...

    Saturday 15 February fixtures

    Couple of relegation dogfight belters in there, Cambridge v Exeter and Gas v Burton being potential brown trousers classics. We have the mighty Crawley away, them having come off the back of a respectable win v Stevenage. We’re still yet to truly settle as a team post-the loss of Bloomfield...
