Re: I believe we will need to win all 3
Two wins and a draw should do it. Salford have two away games and are at home to Fylde so can't see them scoring enough goals to beat us on goal difference.
Also us having Braintree at home last game and them away at Hartlepool last game is a slight advantage if it will ultimately come down to GD.

This is the thing with pressure. We can slip up once. Salford have no margin for error.

Re: I believe we will need to win all 3
We have a 2 point lead and a +3 better goal difference . 2 wins and a draw may just be enough..I agree though to remove all doubt just JUST win them all.

Re: I believe we will need to win all 3
I’d take two home wins and a draw up at Solihull right now, happily.
Solihull needing a win works in our favour (as long as they don’t go 1-0 up!)

Re: I believe we will need to win all 3
The team are certainly not mugs and will know what is required of them. The know that if they win the League it will be a great thing to put on their CV. Plus a Wembley trip. Only thing is big occasion nerves. They will obviously do their best. Please encourage them. Ta!

Re: I believe we will need to win all 3
I don't think we will win all 3.
The character in the squad is immense, but we haven't beaten a team by more than 1 goal for ages and the results against Bromley and Halifax were particularly poor. I think we will do Harrogate and Braintree at home, but moors away is going to be tough.
Not being negative but I think there's a real question about how good we actually are right now, especially given all these injuries.
Just hope $alford don't win all their remaining games, though I have a nasty feeling they will.
Then again, if it does go to the playoffs, I fancy this orient team to smash them (for once!).

Re: I believe we will need to win all 3
Spot on, if we fail to get promoted it can only be the players, managers and owners that will take the blame.
Failure to get promoted is unacceptable!!!!

Re: I believe we will need to win all 3
I thought we were unlucky against Bromley.Just need Salford to hit a bit of bad luck will work for us.
Yesterday went alright but I can understand the players frustration with the ref.

Re: I believe we will need to win all 3
I don’t think Salford will win all three. Hartlepool are decent on their day and will be motivated by wanting to turn over promotion contenders, as an ex-league club. Also Fylde will be going hell for leather for a top three place. If they do win all three I don’t see them scoring enough to overtake our gd, so seven points would be enough.

Re: I believe we will need to win all 3
We have won 10 drawn 2 lost 1 out of 13 games. Not bad form.
Salford have Boreham and Hartlepool away, Fylde home - 3 tough matches.
We only need to worry about Solihull if they beat us, but they need to win all 3 matches and we only 1.

OK sure, Fylde 2 0 aside we haven't won by more than one goal since Maidstone back in January, inluding lower teams in the trophy.
We have won most of those so it's not that important, but I'm just a little concerned re: our actual quality right now, I think we've been pretty lucky to get the win (or draw) in a lot of relatively average performances. I really hope we can continue winning for the last 3, just a tad concerned we aren't easily beating anyone right now.
