Saintandy666 Posted 5 April, 2010 Share Posted 5 April, 2010 Let's hope Oldham are on good form, except when they play us, as they are a common team in all of the teams fixtures, bar Colchester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewell Posted 5 April, 2010 Share Posted 5 April, 2010 What will be very interesting is to see how close we are when Huddersfield host Colchester in the penultimate match. If we can get it down to 2-3 points before this game and then win away at Gillingham then I would really fancy our chances going into the last match. It is important to be ahead of Colchester going into the last match as I think they will beat Orient at home. Huddersfield's trip to Exeter will be pretty tricky though and I can see the home team taking at least a point! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewell Posted 5 April, 2010 Share Posted 5 April, 2010 cannot see Huddersfield dropping enough points HUDDERSFIELD: Oldham (H), Brentford (A), Walsall (H), Millwall (H), Stockport (A), Colchester (H), Exeter (A). Oldham and Walsall are the only games I think they are more than likely to win. Brentford Away is very tricky as we found out. Millwall is going to be tough for them as well. I can see Stockport and Exeter giving them problems at home. I do think they will win the Colchester match which I fear could seal it for them! One thing is for sure we have to win them all (maybe 1 draw) and there will be some surprises along the way. Charlton and Bristol Rovers are going to be very tricky games for us.

Rod Le Shearer Posted 5 April, 2010 Share Posted 5 April, 2010 Saints v Southend could be pivotal for both clubs. I sense a Deja vu here.. the last time we needed a win in the last match,to get to the play-offs, was in the CCC..versus an allready relegated Southend. Lets hope history repeats itself !

Total Points: 73 That does put it into perspective, 3-wins & 3-draws for Huddersfield from 7 games would probably do it for them. They would need to slip up somewhere else to keep us in with a shout. As much as I'd like us to, I just not sure we can win all 7 games. It would be a gutter to miss out by a point, all we can do is keep winning & hope the pressure effects them.

S-Clarke Posted 5 April, 2010 Share Posted 5 April, 2010 it's not going to happen IMO. as much as the southend game is being built up as a ''massive game'' for both clubs, in the end it will probably count for zilch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samoakley Posted 5 April, 2010 Share Posted 5 April, 2010 HUDDERSFIELD: Oldham (H), Brentford (A), Walsall (H), Millwall (H), Stockport (A), Colchester (H), Exeter (A). Worse case i can see for HTFC is WDWLWDD. Best Case WWWLDWW. But we do have the hope they played awfull agaist us and that there squad is small if they get 2 or 3 players out like rhodes and there ****ed.

dune Posted 5 April, 2010 Share Posted 5 April, 2010 SOUTHAMPTON: Charlton (H), Bristol Rovers (A), Yeovil (A), Oldham (H), Carlisle (H), Gillingham (A), Southend (H). We should beat Charlton as we've got the beating of them, likewise we've got the beating of Bristol Rovers, the other homes are against poor L1 teams so if we're focussed we'll beat them. It's Yeovil and Gillingham that look decidedly tricky to me. Both of these teams fans will view us a Derby (a bit like the Plymouth yokels) and as such will hype this fixture up and it'll be like a cup final for them. They are both also good home teams used to playing at their compact little grounds with their dodgy pitches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red&white56 Posted 5 April, 2010 Share Posted 5 April, 2010 HUDDERSFIELD: Oldham (H), Brentford (A), Walsall (H), Millwall (H), Stockport (A), Colchester (H), Exeter (A). Huddersfield's home record is good - can't see them slipping up except against Milwall - 9 pts. Stockport are down and out - 3 pts. A loss and a draw from Exeter and Walsall - 1 pt. That give them 78 pts........... We need to win all remaining games to get to 78 pts.......... BUT our GD will get us 6th place!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_Saint Posted 5 April, 2010 Share Posted 5 April, 2010 What I predicted is probably the most obvious scenario. But we all football doesn't work like that. There will be some unexpected results. I'm just hoping that all of them results happen to the three above us. Brentford have been on good form since January and might be able to sneak a win. Exeter and Wallsall are going to be tough games too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IN MY DAY Posted 5 April, 2010 Share Posted 5 April, 2010 These predictions never work out, because thats what great about football, if my predictions had worked out we'd still be in the Premiership and the championship. The unknown is form, unfortunately the 2 in 2 from Charlton takes them out the game. All we can do is keep winning and pile on the pressure and what will be will be. A month ago i thought if we got to the play-off we'd win them Now!! Both Millwall and Swindon are looking strong and Leeds know all about big games this season. It wont stop me thinking they cant do it until they cant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat from Poole Posted 5 April, 2010 Share Posted 5 April, 2010 I just cant see saints winning all remaining games AND huddersfield dropping 8 points or so.. sorry...as much as I loved to get the playoffs, it just aint going to happen boooooooooooooo It's amazing what nerves can do when you're near the finishing line though. To be honest, I'm getting less worked up about us getting in the play-offs, even if we somehow were to get in them it is a complete and utter lottery as to who wins them. Teams who get to the play-offs but don't win them often find the start of the following season really tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sammysaint Posted 5 April, 2010 Share Posted 5 April, 2010 Agreed Me 2 i think if they win 2moro we can forget it, but if they dont we have a great chance, as i am assuming there win 2moro and only see them losing 1 and drawing 2, but should they even draw that would give us the chance to over take them.

Arizona Posted 5 April, 2010 Share Posted 5 April, 2010 Cannot see Saints getting 8 points more than Uddersfield in 7 games. Not when we've only scored 2 more in the previous 39. I think we'll end up 8th, 5 points off 6th spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedArmy Posted 5 April, 2010 Share Posted 5 April, 2010 Colchester can forget about the playoffs, they'd be bottom of the form table if it weren't for Stockport being utterly useless. It's between Huddersfield and Brizzle. Our form is better than both of them, if we can beat Bristol away we might have a very slim chance, our run in looks favourable after that.

Huddersfield have to get 11 points to guarantee we can't catch them, in reality, we won't win the next 6... if we do then it will be our longest winning streak in the 125 year history of our football club ( just incase you were thinking about having a flutter ) So... let's say at best, we draw 1 game... in reality Hudds only need 9 points.

St Landrew Posted 6 April, 2010 Share Posted 6 April, 2010 Updated following the Huddersfield v Oldham result - a result we could have done without of course - but c'est la vie and all that... Yep. Said the other day that Huddersfield V Oldham might be pivotal. In truth, it is no more important than any other game, but it sends out a signal. They are 11 points away from Saints, with 6 [for them] and 7 games to play. It's do-able, but probably not. I just hope the players have more faith than us lot.
