Who gives a toss? 07:02 - Apr 25 with 1881 views | TheOldOakTree | Obviously we are going to win on Saturday, but just considering something...... If we lose 0-2 and Sutton win 3-1, I think I’m correct in saying that we would both have 44 points and we would both have a goal difference of -23. Both games between us ended 1-1 and we will have both scored 58 goals. How do they then decide who stays up? Presumably the toss of a coin? If so, when and by whom? At least we’ve got a 50% chance of winning a toss-up! PS there are other scores that give the same scenario, e.g. 0-1 and 3-0, or 1-2 and 4-1 etc. |  | | |  |

Thankfully a punch up at South Mimms services is no longer acceptable, but what about something else? We would be favourites at a pub quiz. The Surrey wannabies would be full of Tim-nice-but-Dim's. Or if it's a pub, lets just drink them under the table! If we keep clear of their poncy artisan gin and fevertree, and stick to pints of Stella or Best, I recon we'd be 40/1 on to stay up (or possibly throw up)! Last fans standing, takes all.

LOL - incidentally, the ‘limited seats left alerts’ are starting to appear for Saturday. E5, E6, S2, W4 and W6 now close to selling out. |  |

With all the butt cheeks nipped so tightly together in the home end, it should be possible to fit three people to every two seats. |  | |  |

You're probably not wrong, but just as an update, W5 not available, W4 now sold out, E5, 6 and 7, S1 and 2 and W6 on the alert list, and E3 opened up in anticipation of demand. Doubt it'll be a complete sell-out, but it's looking like another good crowd for Saturday. |  |
