2 teams with not my much at stake. Assume Burgess won't be permitted to play and we'll play 3 cb's


                               Byrne

                    Jones.  Ferguson.  Baines

Welsh-Hayes.   Marriott.  Lundstram.   Jones

                                    Oyedele


                         Hulme      Linney


Oldham 1-2 Alty (Linney/lundstram)

A win here would do a lot to secure our highest finish this Century in the NL.
The above team can do it.
There's plenty to play for for us here.
And make no mistake, Oldham will be well up for it after their defeat at ML.

Barring injuries, I don't think you are far off the mark here.

Plenty to play for, with 18 points still up for grabs id hope we will do everything we can to gate crash the playoff places however unlikely

Being 12 points off the playoffs and 14 off relegation, we're about as marooned in midtable as you can get really.

A good chance to treat the rest of the season as a bit of a glorified pre-season, push the boat out a bit and see what happens if we keep on attacking.

The last games are all about getting ready for next season. To get into the group of genuine play-off contenders we need improvement in every area. Only 3 clubs have conceded more goals and that's with a team who keep possession very well.

2 2 draw.

Yes to the team at the head of this thread.

Think it'll be a draw.

Yes. We’ve tightened up a bit in recent weeks but our GA column has to improve significantly next season whilst ideally maintaining our well known attacking threat. Start of next season we ideally won’t have such a high turnover of players which should help. Our usual tortoise like start needs to be improved on.

As for tomorrow I reckon a bit of end of season knockabout and a Desmond sounds right. Show Oldham what they could have won in Linney. I see on the FB group we’ve now sold just over 300 tickets, hoping we fetch about 500 over.

It'd be good to try and make our goal difference column a positive one. A big ask but its a target.

Delighted if we get that.

That's quite a challenging target 🎯
We would need to score two goals per game and keep six clean sheets.
Wouldn't a more reasonable target be a top half finish? (for the first time in donkeys years!)
Another good one would be to win as many games (or more) than we've lost.
Or perhaps set a new points total for the season.

All in all, plenty to play for! 😉
Come on you Robins 👍

I think A positive GD next year would be a good KPI for the season

Delighted in the end to get a draw from that. For about 75 mins we really seemed to struggle to make even the simplest of passes find a team mate, very bad, and pretty much the whole team were as bad as each other. Don't think we had any kind of shot until Max scored.

Subs seemed to change the game and we even scored from a corner. What a crazy game this sport is. Gutted last Saturday but was laughing at that finish today.

First time I ever used the streaming service. Pictures were OK to be fair but sound was very odd - the commentator seemed to be speaking over a CB or police radio and the "co-commentator" seemed to be speaking over a CB or police radio with a pillow over his face.
