I wouldn't.
They have an extra point and better GD, so it IS in their own hands. However, they have to play Carlisle away and Wycombe at home, plus their form is a little wobbly of late.
I would rather gamble on our position as the chasers with better form and an easier (on paper) final two games.

Well, fwiw, we got three points from Carlisle away and Wycombe home, and they got six points from York away, Daggers home. So if we swapped, they'd go up instead of us.

So I assume you voted no then Yep. But really, that's bullshit. I just feel better with our fixtures than Oxford's. Had Oxford lost 8-0 at York, I still wouldn't swap. |

I would probably take Oxford's position as it's in their own hands but not sure I'd fancy their trip to Carlisle and good knows what the rivalary is like with WW. I would fancy their postion if they finished in the Play offs as that would seem more of a failure than if we finish in them .

Really good poll as it really made me think about their fixtures- certainly wouldn't want them. Puts a lot of pressure on them, especially a local derby last game...
But who knows what carlisle & ww team will turn up??

I voted yes.
I think having your destiny in your own hands is worth a lot. they could potentially draw or lose a game and still go up, whereas we have no option but win both.

I would swap as i don't think our game away at York is any easier than Carlisle away, from some posts i have read it seems all we have to is turn up at York to get the three points, they have had some very good results at home recently so i would swap better to have your destiny in your own hands.

Problem is both Carlisle and Wycombe could stick in a load of kids

Our home form is class and i believe we could beat anyone at home in this league atm, so having Wycombe instead of Dagenham wouldn't be an issue for me. But I'm worried enough as it is about York on Saturday and i really wouldn't want to have to travel to Carlisle for a must win game.
So I've gone for no, purely because i don't think Oxford will get 6 points from the two games. In fact, i think they will draw both.
Us and Accy to go up automatically, both winning our last two!

I think there's a lot of pressure when you're in charge of your own destiny. Add to that the pressure that comes from having been there or thereabouts all season, then right at the death a form team is breathing down your neck. I'll say fair play to Oxford if they don't crack. |

It looks like if we did swap places we'd easily get a ticket for the last game, just come across this post on their forum on the Wycombe game thread:
So TOTAL ESTIMATED HOME SALES are currently 7436 out of the 10,306 available tickets, with 2870 seats still available.
If they can't sell out for such an important game they may as well stay in Div 2 for another season?

Good question!
I'd take their league position obviously, but I wouldn't want their fixtures! York and daggers aren't a guaranteed 6pts for us, but I don't see Oxford (or Stanley) picking up 6pts.
DC will have our teams' heads in the right place for both games and we'll be OK. I hope!

No chance, we would finish 4th and be in the playoffs as Oxford would finish 3rd. UTG

Guess what.. sold out already so near 12,000 crowd. Anyway good luck Saturday. Come on u York beat the bully boy 'Gas'. |
