Mansfield can go above Rovers if they win both their games I believe?

But let’s not forget Oxford, the night this team gell’d and this season turned on a pin head. I wonder what Joey says or does to motivate the team for these big games? I'd suggest trying the opposite... You were right! In Joey we trust. UTG |

The league table looks so good right now!
I am so relieved that we have secured our playoffs position. Physically shaking right now...
All to play for next Saturday. The lads can play with no fear knowing that 7th position is secure.
What a season!

Mansfield can go above Rovers if they win both their games I believe? And Port vale too. But they are effectively out of the automatic chase now. We are two clear of them. Add the three points from the scunny win it’s five points. Both vale and Mansfield need 6 points from 6. They will be lucky to get 4 from 6. NORTHAMPTON AT BARROW PORT VALE NEED 3 AT HOME TO NEWPORT AND 3 AT TITLE WINNING EXETER MANSFIELD NEED THREE POINTS AT SALFORD AND 3 POINTS HOME TO FOREST GREEN |

I think every team in the top 10 need to win their final game, albeit for Champion, promo or play-off positions

I'm exhausted.
Have to admit I was cussing and cursing for 85 minutes, we just couldn't seem to put two passes together but then...
I need to watch the game again, without all the stress.

The only day that could have gone wrong and stopped us going up automatically was today, and the results went our way. Joey Barton has taken Gas up Automatically. Only going to finish 7 points or less from the title.
Whoever’s got a ticket for next week, one hell of a party. 🥳
To be honest, after the home defeat to Swindon I was sure it wasn’t going to work, so I called for Joey to be sacked. The lesson is, once it gels and get momentum, anything is possible, like Bolton last season.
We were much better with a back 4, and would have been even better with a good number nine. Collins and Nicholson and other players would have been better playing off a 9 too.
But we needed to bounce back, and we are back up in league 2, where we belong, as that’s the level for Bristol Rovers now in 21st century era, Champoinship would be tough for a club of our stature and wealth these days. Ut at least this time let’s just stay in league 2 and not end up down here with the Suttons Dales and Harrogate again.

See also Newport away (getting into the top seven), Carlisle away (getting into the top three) and Forest Green home (putting pressure on the top three). I don't think I'm being premature in now adding Rochdale to the list. Rochdale are 18th, have players out injured and have an emergency goalkeeper. Just so poor and disappointing. This team bottles it again and again when it matters, which hardly bodes well for the playoffs - presuming we make it. Oh dear - this hasn't aged well.  What an afternoon, this team doesn't give up, they are battlers - not bottlers! |

The permutations are way too complicated right now, and are making my head hurt.
All we know for certain is that positions 3-7 will be up for grabs for us next Saturday. What an occasion it will be!
I can't wait!!!!!
