Nick - totally agree. Injuries have not helped, lack of squad depth has showed. For me, it all depends on whether Exeter can get a win or of course 3 draws

If we indeed don’t pick up another point from here then we will almost certainly go down, however in that case we would have picked up only one point from the last 11 matches (one from 33 possible pints) and in that case really we would deserve relegation.

Looking at the fixtures, it’s probably going to go down to last day of season and alot will depend if Huddersfield and Bradford (exeters opponents) have play offs to play for

Last ten matches 8 points from a possible 30

If anyone thinks Stockport will be leggy after playing tomorrow, we should remember that Southampton beat Arsenal last weekend and beat them, and then had to go away to Wrexham midweek, which they won 5-1, and then they turned round a half time deficit today to beat Derby, so we shouldn’t assume anything really…

You could also equally see Exeter as on a run of one win in the last 2 (and they were close to winning today).

Why play Reeves, we all know we are better without him in the team.

Burton out smarted us today. Crap football. Slowing the game down. Taking minutes to take throws. Getting the ball into positions where we struggle to get out. Why we are not on to the ref to speed things up? Ball was barely in play. No leaders and too many poor players coming onto the pitch who didn't look bothered.

At the beginning of the season we would of all taken 3 points clear with 4 to play.

Sincerely believe it is between us and Exeter now. Just got to hope Exeter continue their run of about 1 win in 16. Have to remain positive though.

I really thought we would be safe, but looking a bit iffy now - would be unfair to get relegated on 50+ points !

Ref blew for full time rather than booking their player for throwing the ball away.

Poor performance in the second half

It’s possible that Stockport will take the view that they only need to turn up to win and we will catch them cold and nick a point (or3). Of course it is also possible that we will be so poor that they only need to turn up to win - we shall see soon enough.

Silk - have a look at the fixtures though. We play Stockport Wednesday. This helps…. Exeter. Stockport (and us) only 2 days rest

Five additional minutes. Could be fifty and we wouldn’t have a shot on target. I know we have squad troubles but we look absolutely abject. Can’t kick the ball properly even from dead balls.

*going

With any luck Stockport will go to extra time, get a few injuries and we catch them cold on Wednesday.

So often there is a side which looks safe then goes on a massive dive in form, can’t pull out of it and ends up relegated- we do look uncomfortably as if we could be “that side” this year.

I’m starting to think that it’s good to go to the wire…..

Silk we are being beaten rather easily by Burton. If you look at our fixtures I’d love to know where you think those four points are coming from.

Looking at the expiring contracts and the fact we have to cut our budget if we do not get meaningful investment this summer this will be the type of squad we will have next season albeit with hopefully fit CBs. We may struggle next season if we stay up.

Silk - we won’t get another point I think. It’s all down to whether Exeter get a win

If Burton beat Exeter in a couple of weeks we will only need 4 points to survive. In fact if Exeter lose one of their three matches we need four points. Today is not a killer but we need some defenders back soon.

We’re very poor on the ball this half. This is where JJ needs to be front and centre directing things.
