Would Solihull take a point now?

Post by Orient Punxx »

Would look at Orient as uncatchable given our final fixture.

A point could guarantee 3rd place for them today - either way destined for the playoffs.

They will be influenced by what’s happening at Halifax/Wrexham but ultimately will want to get through the game in one piece.

Note they were hardly over celebrating the goals in the Bromley game - the Championship has gone for them and it is all about the playoffs.

Hmmm...
Not an easy question to answer. On balance, I don't think that they would take a point now. Finishing as high as possible does bestow certain advantages in the play-offs so, my guess is that they'll go for the win. If they do win, they will have beaten the league leaders and that would surely give them a massive boost in confidence.

No. They have good home form and will fancy their chances. It’s unlikely they do it but stranger things have happened. They will be going flat out for the win imo

Of course they'll be going flat out for the win . All players want to win and that's how it should be .

No. For Solihull their only chance of automatic promotion is to win. Even if they lost they are still likely to be top 3.

A point pretty much ends their chances of coming top, so no
