Yes 77 points would be a very high total to not get into the play offs if that was to happen.A few weeks ago the discussion was how many points do we need to get into the play-offs. Most felt our current total (74) would not be enough, but 75 might. 77 would easily get us there. So here we are going into the final day of the season ...

It has to be a win for the Us and if we come up short we at least achieved a target, albeit one not openly talked about, and can say we've had a satisfactory season based on where we were last time around My worry is we will prove the statisticians right, get an unlucky draw, end up on 75 points and finish 7th or 8th. I hope this fate falls to Lincoln or Barnsley.
Come on you yellows!
If we draw we then need just one of either Barnsley or Lincoln to lose.... and Blackpool not to win!We need a win and must hope that either Lincoln or Barnsley lose or draw.
If we draw, it will only be enough if Barnsley lose as we have a better GD, or if Lincoln lose.
I think?

If Blackpool win then we would need both of Barnsley and Lincoln to lose.
Not at all complicated
Anyone know when Goodwin's back (or at least meant to be lol)?
Yeah, the trouble is we cross everything and the goalie catches it!!!Impossible to predict. After Peterborough, I convinced myself we'd turned a corner. After the last two games, it look like the corner we took has lead into a cul-de-sac. Exeter are in a decent run of form - better than us whether you look at the last 4, 6, 8, 10 or 12 games (https://www.soccerstats.com/formtable.asp?league=england3). Given that, in a regular game you might grudgingly accept an away draw, but ...
We obviously have more reason to be fired up, but then I am not convinced some of the team are good when put under pressure. All we can do is cross everything and keep chanting 'I believe' under our breaths, while trying to resist looking at the other scores every 30 seconds!
I would take a look around your back garden there is more chance of finding gold than Godwin starting match this season .He told me he'd be fit for the play offs, I asked him before the Stevenage game

Going to be a very tough game. They seem very well drilled, together and by the sounds of it have a very good focused, strong manager!
That might play into our hands though. We are a better side if teams come at us a bit instead of sitting back. Exeter could play with just enough freedom to allow us to get our wingers in on the counter attack.They have nothing to lose and no fear.
