League Two remaining fixtues

LINK

Thoughts on the top ten team by team run-ins welcome.

Argyle have still to play four of the top eight teams, three away and one home. You would hope that they can get points against the other remaining fixtures [the mdi-table sides]

Pompey have an easy-ish run-in, but they are inconsistent at times.

Bristol Rovers seem to an easy-ish run-in too, although they are like Pompey.

Leton Orient have an interesting run-in also, probably a PO spot for them though..

5 home matches. 3 of them against the bottom 3. Given that we have some tricky away matches we may need to take 9 points from those 'easy' matches.

Accrington Stanley have got a swine of a March, then it looks easier. They play Wycombe Wanderers twice between now and season end. Personally, I think they will be out of the automatic race by the start of April.

There's no such thing as "easier, easyish, winnable" or any other label for the remaining 10 games. The home games against York or Dagenham could easily turn out to be as hard or productive/unproductive as the Pompey and Accrington games. One game at a time is a cliché but sayings become clichés essentially because they are true.

Luton Town,  Morecambe, York City and Exeter City are the ideal fixtures to pick up all 12 points before the AFC, Pompey and Leyton Orient.

Even taking 10 points from those first four would suffice (and three at Accy) , that would be a total of 78.  

Got to be looking at taking 7 points from the main three after that, bringing the total up to 85 (which could be enough perhaps).

The remaining games look winnable.

Actually that's far more likely

Just 0-2 ????

Brent out.

Exeter through to Orient is going to be tough.

Why do we get Hartlepoole so often for the last game of the season?

Got a bad feeling about the accy game

Accies 0 Pompey 1.

Rovers 1 Wombles 0.

Looking increasingly like third spot is between Pompey and Gas

Pompey two up

Rovers 2 up.

Pompey 3 up at HT.

Gas 2 Wombles 1

And six points off us, my monkey has come running downstairs waving a white flag.

Could be a likely outcome......

Stout Knee's chaps! Pompey and Rovers wont know whats hit them when Jimmy's reinforcements arrive.

Accies 1-3.

(Chester 8 Aldershot 2

You don't see that scoreline very often.)

Rovers 3-1.
