Stop being pedantic Didsbury. 82 83 84 85 who gives a ******
I’m happy to celebrate the performances and if every other challenger wants to capitulate that’s their look out.
Here’s another one for you 101 points champions.

I think a look back at Inspector Morse’s pessimism and glowing Mansfield comments are far more worthy of a revisit !!!!

Has as already been said - win the next three and the Reds cannot be denied a promotion place. Exeter are the club below a promotion place who can accrue the most points (87) as the third match is against them we would be on 86 while reducing their maximum total to 84. Just the little task of beating Notts County and Colchester as well first.

They were fairly made at the time of writing. Unfortunately I had not the clairvoyance to see the Evans defection coming. Mansfield are a strong side and gave us a game yesterday with 10 men.

The spirit the lads have shown has been amazing and a joy to watch. Good to see Seamus get his deserved moment in the spotlight. 3 more games and we could be there.

Promotion could easily be in 7 days with just two other results going our way, and likely to be overshadowed by the premier league title being decided.

Not to Stanley fans, it won't.

As well as promotion and being champions, how about a third challenge? Can we get the best goal difference in the division?

I know mate. Nobody can get it spot on. It was just a tongue in cheek comment with his Lordship having a pop because I said 85 was the target.
Who cares ?
Wouldn’t it be great to break the 100 point mark ?

Heard today on RADIO 5 that the top three teams in Europe over the last 15 games are:
1. Paris St. Germain
2. Juventus
3. Accrington Stanley.

Man City? Who are they?

Don’t despair Twenty Eight. Social media is just a place where we alternate between showing how clever we are and attempt to cover up how stupid we are.

I’ve got a Facebook post from back in August /September when I implored everyone I knew to sell their house and put the money on Stanley getting promotion. That will be wheeled out shortly to show how god damn smart I am.

I just hope no-one remembers a similar (but totally wrong) message of confidence from last year!

Anyway, looks like 80-81 points is now looking good enough.

could not care how many points we get as long as its more than the team in 4th. position.

Luke Berry is going to be a massive loss for Luton mate. Weve got to lose three and they’ve got to win three to get above us.
I really fancy Mansfield to get a result tomorrow.
He might not make it but Danny Rose desperate to play.
He could make the difference.
