Midtable for us, unless our first choice wingers return or quality reinforcements are drafted in.

We have three games in hand. If we won them all we'd be within two points of the playoffs. We have more games left at home than we do away, so it's definitely realistic to think we could replicate last season. However, we absolutely MUST work on our defending of set pieces.

York to go up.

Park Ave to escape.

Kettering and Blyth to go down.

Mid table for us. That should act as a kick for next season cos we should have competed from August.

We would all like to envisage a play off place but so would everyone else in the league!
At the moment its a faint hope at best!
Granted Cessay's injury was unfortunate and we do miss JJ however the pre season recruitment decisions have not been the best to say the least! (TM the exception BTW). SBL

moderate optimism on my part due partly to the number of games we have in hand, but mainly looking at this version of the league table...

http://www.altrinchamfc.co.uk/leaguetable.htm

We have played all 5 of the top 5, almost exclusively away from home, but only 2 of the bottom 5. So going forward the average points per game should improve, plus we have more games than the others.

BUT...not all good news. Looking at the more middle ranking teams, we have played quite a few more home than away and our away form is piss poor. Sort out the travelling form and we could even hit the plays off...but thats way easier said than done

We've only won two games against the top 12 teams so need to hit some form if we're going to make the playoffs.

As we've proved in the past we can beat anyone on our day. Nobody will fancy us in the playoffs but we've got our work cut out to make them.

I'm staying optimistic - we are good enough to beat anyone in this league and I believe that, once Phil has strengthened the squad in the new year, we will start chalking up regular wins, the players collective and individual confidence will improve, and we will get into the play offs comfortably

We will finish in a play-off position and inevitably face another visit to Chester.

That wouldn't worry me (well, not on the pitch), but going to Brackley just might !
