Notts can definitely beat Bristol Rovers, but it's hard to see Salford and Cambridge both slipping up with so much at stake. If we don't get automatic promotion, it's important that we focus on getting the win. Momentum and confidence going into the playoffs is vital!

I wonder what PONners make of these probabilities…

Crewe win - 15%

Crawley win or draw - 50%

Notts win - 60%

That works out at exactly 3% chance of automatic promotion. Or 33 balls in the bag and 1 of them has our name on it. How do you feel about that?

I think 60% is quite generous for us, our final-day opponents have won their last eight games! I'd been hoping that, with nothing to play for, Bristol Rovers would already be on the beach by now. Instead it's had the opposite effect. I think we're much more likely to lose than Cambridge or Salford are.

I can see Salford slipping up away to a Crawley side struggling for survival. I doubt Cambridge will though, and just a point would effectively take them out of our reach.

We've got a chance, but in the same way that someone who buys a lottery ticket has a chance. Stranger things have happened in football, but they usually don't.

It's all academic anyway, we're already up - the league still has a to give us the 12pts for the conversions scored by Bennetts and Jodi from our last 4 free kicks
