Now Chesterfield have got themselves in pole position for 7th they've started dropping points too

Could be a six horse race for the last play-off spot now...

Chesterfield 42 62 9
-----------------------------------
Shrewsbury 42 61 15
Bradford 42 60 9
Dag & Red 41 59 18
Lincoln City 42 57 4
Morecambe 41 56 0

Our next two games are Lincoln and Dagenham, so we'll definitely be out of it this time next week.

I hope so. We're two points outside the play-offs and I can't muster any sort of enthusiasm whatsoever. I'm almost at the point that I hope we don't somehow get to Wembley as it's a lot of money to spend to be humiliated.

Me too, I was hoping Chesterfield would win yesterday.

As it is they haven't won in 4, we haven't won in 7 and Shrewsbury have 1 win in 10 I think, teams like Lincoln were so far behind just a few weeks ago, now they have genuine hope the way the form of the teams above them is going.

It's just an awful standard.

Oh, and if this is true (the fact it is in the NOTW hopefully means it isn't) then thank f#*k I'm planning on being away for the majority of next season.

We laboured to a 1-0 win over Bournemouth yesterday, not helped by Darren Powell getting himself sent off for having a fight with one of his team-mates - utterly moronic from such a senior player. Our goal was rather fortuitious but deserved in the first half, Billy Clarke (on loan from Ipswich) was excellent but we made it very hard for ourselves second half.

That defeat for Bournemouth combined with Chester and Grimsby winning means its very tight in the race to avoid that second drop spot.

I wouldn't want to be the other guy, Powell's about 8 foot tall isn't he??!! Then again, so is half your team!
