    So, if we finish second, we could potentially be knocked out in the semi or in the final by the 7th placed club?

    Plenty of twists & turns still to come?
    Or / And
    Do all the squad start practising penalties?

    I would have thought that there will be the top team with automatic and the next four teams in the play offs.

    Kyle Finn for them who’s on absolute fire has netted 11 goals from CM and has a lot of interest in him. Who’s to say they won’t cash in and not get a good fitting replacement ?

    Football’s a funny old game, as said about there’s a lot of twists and turns yet to come.

    “As ever, the Promotion Final will be played at the home of the finalist who finished higher in the regular season”

    Interesting.

    If we finish 2nd the semi final and final (if we made it) would both be at GP

    We’ll probably be drawn against Boston United.
    That’d probably end up as another draw… then it’s the Russian Roulette of penalties.

    Can we get our season back on track and overhaul Tamworth?

    Rene, you seem to have good knowledge of quaint stats. Do you run the iron stats account on twitter by any chance?

    A ‘super-computer’ predicts end of season placings:

    2 Scunthorpe United
    3 Brackley Town
    4 Chorley
    5 Scarborough Athletic
    6 Alfreton Town
    7 Boston United

    1/4 Finals
    Chorley v Boston
    Scarborough v Alfreton

    Semi-Finals
    Scunthorpe v ?
    Brackley v ?

    Final
    ? V ?

    Playoff Winners
    ?

    I won’t tempt fate.
