For those so confident of us going down or want to hedge their emotions, we're 6/4+ with most bookies to go down.

Seems they believe in us a little more than we do!

At present I would make it a genuine 50/50 call. Most bookies are lucky enough not to have witnessed our games.

I cant see us winning the away game, likewise cant see us beating Doncaster. Tomorrow is the Day of Destiny IMHO. Must win game and hopefully Accrington can do us a favour at Newport, though on that pitch anything could happen.

Thats the bad thing about Newport, doesnt matter who they play at their patch, they have an advtange from the state of the pitch. (ie a fair amount more experience dealing with it rather than other teams)

Presuming Doncaster play passing football, could there be an argument for fucking our pitch up for the last game of the season? Not that we have much height etc to play in the air mind.

Think it just comes down to who is prepared to fight hardest and gets a bit of luck. It could be helpful that Barnet have nothing to play for but only if we play with some passion. Cheltenham could be safe by the time we play them but our away form is abysmal. Doncaster could be pissed for a week before playing us and still start as favourites.

The bookies seem to set odds based exclusively on the league table - all the teams at the bottom are bad so whoever already has the most points is the best bet to stay up. By that reasoning we're a marginally better bet than Newport. Add form into the equation and I'd say they're a marginally better bet than us.
