    actually i want Plymouth to score to stop all this complacent arrogance

    We need the goal difference to be in our favour, so the more Scunny score and Plymouth don't the easier for us

    I think Scunthorpe have got some really decent players, Toney, Yates, Holmes, Morris

    Shopping list?
    Definitely, would imagine Toney and Yates are out of reach cause both loanees and probably on big wedge, I would be happy for us to go in for Holmes and Morris though

    Excellent. Plymouth would have been a fairy tale after their start and I think I quite like them as a club but I’ve disliked that prat Adams since he moved our stupid little comes at half time.

    Seven goal swing needed for Plymouth against us now...

    6 really as in order to get the swing they would need to win 3-0 and if we lost 3-0 they would get it via goals scored.

    Not beyond the realms actually - Gills roll over for a 3-0 defeat with Plymouth going for it. And an up for it Rochdale do us by 3 goals.

    It’s certainly not over - but we hold the cards and should go there for the win

    No. As long as they have genuine knocks and need to recover.

    Wouldnt want to take the chance...

    Gillingham have nothing to play for and I do actually see us losing 1-0 to Rochdale, they'll come out at us to get an early goal to settle their nerves

    Once (If) achieved they'll sit back

    Ah cheers, forgot about that element

    Still SKY have said that Plymouth only have 19 away goals this season...

    Should've done his lap of honour when he had the chance :smiley:

    To finish fifth Scunthorpe will have to lose at home to Bradford on Saturday. Unlikely

    We were heavily linked with Holmes last summer but I think that was in the period where we didn't have a manager or a Football Director.

    A good League One player but one who blows hot and cold. I don't think he's better than anything we have at the moment bar Kaikai. But obviously we lose players as they return to their parent clubs so it's not a bad shout if we're still in this division.

    Love it - Scunny go 1 up and everyone gets positive and thinks we are as good as there, they go 2 up and suddenly everyone's thinking up ways we can screw it up! Only us lol

    Not if they play a weakened side to protect players for the playoffs

    Dunno... they'll see the Play-Off teams as done and will now start to think about who they'd prefer to face.

    Different counties yet Rotherham might have the feel of a derby for them (which they might not want) so will deliberately lose - Without checking results they may also have had a better season against Shrewsbury

    Amazing is the whole season comes down to relying on another team's result and winning the final game.

    Personally I don’t care to be honest mate. If we turn up and play well we can beat any of the other 3. If we show up and play like we did against Wimbledon or Scunthorpe we won’t

    I think back to 20 years ago, Ipswich had beaten us three times that season and Sunderland were class. I’m not anywhere near as nervous were we to get in

    I think there’s a real buzz under Bowyer and I back us to win against any of them
