The key to the rest of the season is whether Kenny and Bimmo can pick the lads up and keep on with the mentatlity that every game is a one off.

Ecky,

I understand what you're saying here but I have to disagree somewhat.

We are (still) the lowest scoring team in the league.
The real key to the rest of the season lies in addressing that deficiency successfully.
Unless that aspect of our game improves, we will not escape finishing in one of the relegation spots.

Attacking options comprising a currently out-of-form Reeves; the yet-to-score-a-single-league-goal and futile Beesley and that white elephant (in every sense) Twiss will not keep us up in my opinion.
 

Yeah, can't argue with that.

I just feel that if Reeves gets one he could go on a run and if we can't get anyone in then we'll have to hope that Clee starts going for goal a bit more and Baynes piledrivers go in.

There is a lot of factors to consider.

The reason I did the exercise was more for me to be honest to see if I genuinely thought we could get anything and who we had left and when.

I think we'll know the answer to if have any kind of chance by the end of the Southport match and hopefully not sooner.

I still think we'll be battling 'til the final day, only difference is that this time Alty will perform on the final day and get the win that is required against a poor Eastbourne side.

After the first 10 or so games I would have been delighted at still having a chance now and I still see it being 'very Alty' to get results when we shouldn't and not when we should in the run in.. Its what we've been brought up to expect with the super Robins from Moss Lane.

So 3 points as oppose to 2 -

[chesteralty]

It's incredible that we still have any sort of chance after that start we had.
That last game could be huge, ironic that it was Eastbourne we beat to get into this league.....

[markecky]

We're still on track.

It might take 48 points now  but I believe we can beat Southport now instead of a draw so that will give us us 49.

[Ballers]

It'll only give us 48 won't it if you've factored in a point for a draw? 2 points extra for the win rather than 3 though.

[bumble]

Newport A – Draw - 1 pt - Battling 0-0....a herculean effort with little flair or fun but a point in Wales against a Newport side on the slide.
FGR – H – Draw - 1 pt -  Its a  must win must win must win all the way on the forum but its a 1-1 draw after we lead for a long time.
Tamworth H – Win - 3 pts - A 1-0 win against a terrible Tamworth side...Reeves pen late on
Darlington A – Loss -  Routine 3-0 defeat against a useful Darlington side (i'll be there by the way)...not a lot of positives

= 5 points

real total = 9 points

[Timperley The Best]

How many points will it take now? 47, 48 ,maybe even 49 or 50 ?

[RocketDan]

Tamworth    51
Cambridge Utd 50
Barrow         50
Hayes & Yeading    49
Altrincham  49
-----------------------------------
Southport  44
Forest Green 42
Histon    34
Eastbourne Boro    31

I think we will be going into the last game needing a win to stay up.

There's no way Southport will only get 4 more points, they'll get 3 at home to Eastbourne on Saturday for starters

Where they getting the rest from

[Ballers]

Yes, 7 more points actually. As long as 3 of them aren't at Moss Lane on Tuesday we should be right.

I'm actually not looking at Soutport on the basis they get results at home, more towards Hayes and FGR.

48 points will probably be good enough on goal difference, with ours though we'll have to get up to 49.
