...what do we want to see?
D&R v Wycombe - Home win obviously, keeps Wycombe away from us, and more pressure on Yeovil.
Hartlepool v Stevenage - Home win, no real impact on us, but would put Yeovil back in the mire. Is Ellis still at Hartlepool?
Oxford v Mansfield - Tough one. A Draw because it means a point is lost from the total available and neither one gains too much over us, or a Home win because it keeps Mansfield below us, or an Away win because it keeps Oxford and the third Automatic spot closer? A Draw or Away win for me for the reasons given. |

Agreed with those. Draw would be best in the last game I think, very tight in and around the play-offs at the moment.

Hmmmm, tough call indeed!
I think I would like to see a Mansfield win as I personally think that we are good enough to be in the top 3 and as such I don't want to see any of the current top 3 pull away.

Oxford V Mansfield: Would prefer to see a Mansfield Win. I think that we should still aim for the automatic promotion places and that means that we have to catch up with Oxford and/or Plymouth (I think Northampton might now be out of reach). Granted, it would put Mansfield above us by three points but we would have two games in hand on them.
By the end of this month, the large part of the "games in hand" equation will have resolved:
Oxford have 5 more games in February - Mansfield (H), Morecombe (A), Northampton (H), Accrington (H), and Wimbledon (A). That is a hell of a difficult run of fixtures.
Accrington also have 5 more games - although, apart from games with Oxford and Carlisle, their schedule seems easier on paper.
By the end of the month most of the top teams will have played 32 games (us included). Accrington and Carlisle will still have a game in hand but Mansfield will still have played 2 games more.
We need to keep strong for our three February games; Portsmouth (A), Morecombe (H) and Wycombe (A) but, with so many of the other teams playing each other, AND if we can come through that period well, we could be in a great position at the end of it.
It is in our hands

1-1 now
D&R letting us down - down to 10, and Wycombe score on the stroke of half time, 0-1 Stevenage also go 1 up on 45 minutes |

Hopefully Daggers can do us a favour here! Maybe Cureton will help us out before he joins us in the summer?
