This evening we have three intriguing fixtures
Exeter v Crewe
Plymouth v GRIMsby
Swindon v Scunthorpe
Swindon 34 66
Crewe 35 65
Exeter 35 64
Cheltenham 35 63
Plymouth 35 62
Northampton 36 58
Port Vale 36 56
COL U 36 55
Bradford 36 54
Let us be clear we are looking to secure 20 more points to guarantee a top seven finish.
Whilst the situation still remains in our own hands and feet nevertheless we remain rightly interested in other team's results and will do until the last games of the season.
A draw for Exeter and Crewe and defeats for Plymouth and Swindon would be the best case scenario this evening but realistically any points dropped by our competitors between now and the end of April should be warmly welcomed.
We need to win up to 7 of our last 10 games starting at Brunton Park on Saturday.

Two up until end of season, with strikers proactive in getting back onside . Only capable if play with intensity, purpose and passion . Points make prizes, destiny is in our own hands if we are good enough and brave enough . |
Absolutely agree
10 cup finals
Two strikers essential

Nine games to go. That is a fifth of the season. A lot can happen. I thought it might be interesting to take a look back at the table after nine games and compare....

12 Plymouth 9 3 3 3 3 12
13 Colchester 9 3 3 3 3 12
It is almost as were are at the top, But the wheels evidently came off for Forest Green, Newport, Crawley, Cambridge , Bradford and Grimsby. Whilst Plymouth and Colchester have since been in the ascendency. Newport’s demise spectacular.
Quite clearly, most teams have gone through phases of joy and despair this season . I don’t recall a Division so competitive as Division Two 2019-20. I was surprised to hear how long it had been since the U’s collected back to back away victories (as occurred yesterday). Division Two is from over yet, and we remain well placed. |  | | |

Ok not in the promotion race but Carlisle saw off the Exiles 2-0 last night at Brunton Park
Omari Patrick (who I was impressed with on Saturday before fading in the second half) impressed for the Cumbrians and scored early doors.
Newport also saw red which never helps a losing cause.
One thing is certain we have to play on the cabbage pitch soon and Newport now have nothing but pride to play for.

It was "old boy" Ryan Inniss who was sent off so we will not face him at Newport 21/3
Good news! |  | | |

Good news indeed
Newport have slumped and we must ensure that we win at Rodney Parade.
