Draw at Burton - impact on Saturday's game
« on: April 20, 2009, 06:19:41 PM »

Up to the point we drew at Burton they had taken an average of 2.2 points per game. Since then they've only managed 1.35 points per game and so are in a position where Cambridge can catch them if they lose at Torquay who need the points to ensure they make the play-offs.

So Cambridge will be looking to win by a good margin wheras, if Burton had taken 3 point against us, they'd be up already and Cambridge would be guaranteed in the play-offs and possibly thinking about resting key players.

I'm glad we're not going into the game needing a point or three but I guess it could mean that they'll be all guns blazing and there'll be opportunities at the other end. We could do the double over them!

We do seem to have a habit of upsetting in form team's runs yet we always seem to give struggling teams the boost they need just when they've gone 16 games without a win....I'm thinking of FGR and Lewes.

We're an odd team.

Hence the Lewes/Burton connection: ending one cr@p and one great run respectively!
