Come on Garth - this is the dreamer thread, not the cold realist thread.

Tonights games could see the gap widen and those below us draw closer.

AFC Telford United v Darlington
Altrincham v Blyth Spartans
Boston United v Stockport County
Bradford (Park Avenue) v Leamington
Spennymoor Town v Southport

BPA & Spenny have two games in hand on us too

I do think 4th is possible, we can forget top 3 so it doesn`t matter how many games they (top 3) have in hand.

I would go for Stockport finishing top though.

I admire the optimism of those pegging us for 4th.

I've got a feeling we can make it. Really hope it's right. 6th and 7th is more pragmatic though. Chorley on Saturday is a big game, and I've got a feeling we can get a result.

COYR!

Only Alty helped us out by dropping two points at home.

I think that stockport will win it. I've thought that for a while. Chorley and spennymoor to make the playoffs then I reckon any 4 down to chester could creep in. Still a lot to play for. We will see !!

I think the Stockport result tonight was great for us - heaps pressure on Chorley for Saturday.

Looks like a very optimistic points return to me. Think around 10 points would be a more realistic points haul from these games. However, if you're right Ograzebrook (and I hope you are), then 17 would almost certainly get us that final 7th berth play-off spot.

Presuming you posted before Spennymore, will you revise up your prediction Colgofray?

Lots of top 7 teams playing each other before the end of the season. Means that the points haul for playoffs could be lower than usual...
