Play off chances
« on: January 17, 2010, 07:18:49 AM »

9 points off the play offs with a couple of games in hand.

I'm not worried about the teams below us and am looking up the table for a change......can we make up the difference and sustain a challenge with the teams above?

A top ten finish would be a superb achievement and I'm hoping for that in a not getting carried away type way.

Why not? The higher up the league we finish the bigger crowds we could get, more exposure and maybe more investment. It's all good.

If we could match home results with away results we'd really be in the mix.

Very strange indeed our complete reversal of home/away form.

Hopefully a win on Saturday against Hayes (who we beat away) can kick start Fortress Moss Lane

Top ten would be a monumental achievement.

The FA Trophy should be our aim - I truly believe we can go all the way in this competition.

I agree fully however Tuesday night will be a massive test. They are a good side and play fast attacking football.

They are the best team i've seen at Moss Lane this season, they were extremely solid when they beat us 1-0 a few months back.  I think they will go up this season, we have our work cut out but we are capable of getting a result ala stevenage.

I too really fancy AFCW's chances of winning the play offs......if we can scrape past them then we could go all the way....make a change to going out meekly early doors to some rank no mark outsider at home.

No, that's in the next round after Workington beat Rushden!  ::) ;)

I think if we take ever game as it comes instead of looking at the big picture, then sure why not? we are more than capable beating any team in this league on our day, so who is to say that we don't win every game now till the end of the season. Keep the faith.
