If they draw, each wins their last game and we lose both ours, we COULD still go down if they win/we lose twice by enough to overturn the goal difference - currently ours is 6 better than Wycombe and 7 better than Brizzle

Northampton would have to win both their games as well to overtake us.

Well, following Div3N's example of slavish attention to statistics, a win and a draw with a 16 goal swing on goal difference and them scoring 14 to get ahead on goals scored.....

Bottom line, if Northampton or Wycombe or Brizzle lose on Saturday we're safe ..

But if we lose 1-0 twice, and the Cobblers draw one 0-0 and win the other 14-0 we're not .............Depending on what happens to Wycombe/Brizzle R - who would need to draw 0-0, and then win their last games 7-0 and 6-0, while both Exeter and Morecambe win one out of two as well ......

I'd get better odds on Cashy as the next Manager of Man U

And on a similar theme, if Chester beat Salisbury and Hereford win 15-0 away at Aldershot, the Aldershot get relegated (GD) rather than Chester or Hereford ........

Quite fun, this, isn't it Chris?

Thing is, it takes some poor folk awhile to come to that conclusion, still i was educated.
