I am concerned that Oldham are going to put a run of form together like Stockport did 2 years ago. I hope I am wrong.

You usually are, why would this be any different

But then again I could be correct.A very impressive win at Barnet in mid week.

Oldham’s run would have to be better than Stockport’s. They had 9 more points than Oldham at this stage of games played.
Their run would have to be as good as ours so far.

Your posting style is very similar to the ghost that is stagman Luke. 🤔

You’ve gotta be some sort of troll , no town fan would be this downbeat or stupid about a side sitting very pretty at the top of the league. You’ve been the same all season. I know Walton can’t help himself and hes a known wum but you are genuinely bizarre.

Now that’s a shout and a half. I also thought his writing style was familiar 🤔
How anyone can criticise Cook for winning 2-0 away at Woking is a hilariously bad take. Not only did we win, we managed to rest multiple players to keep them fresh for the games ahead - a sign of wonderful management.
Also, the irony of calling people out for not adding to a ‘debate’ whilst also calling everyone ‘sheep’ who don’t agree - they do need some better education in Nottinghamshire.

They can do. They might finish 2nd if they do.

Their run to reach 100 points, which they’ll need, will have to be considerably better than our run so far.

We’ve gone at 2.5 PPG but they’ll need 2.8 PPG so pushing a perfect record til next May.

What about all the Barnet headers that should have resulted in at least 3 goals.

[Westbars Spireite]

Stockport's record over their final 25 league games of that season was W20, D1, L4. If Oldham were to replicate that over their remaining 25 games they will finish with 91 points. I would be very surprised if that would bring them close to our final tally.

Wor I'd like to know is how often the team with the fewest losses has failed to take the title. I suspect hardly ever.

It was a good win but Barnet contributed just as much to Oldham winning the game as Oldham did. Oldham weren’t that good.

Pretty pleased with Southports 10pt deduction and Oldhams false start because hopefully it’s taken two rivals out of too close a chase. But looking at Oldham, if we win our game in hand, and assuming we both draw a similar amount of games between now and the end of the season, we would be 23 points ahead meaning the would have to win a mind boggling 8 games more than us from here on in. That’s a hell of an ask mate.

If we have a drop off form like that we’ll have more to worry about than just Oldham

Well let’s hope so!

Fully expect Oldham and Southend to make some decent signings after Christmas, wouldn’t be surprised to see young Mr Dallas end up at either club too, but it’s about what we do. Win the home games, stay competitive away from home, and I can’t see anyone toppling us.

We need our this be our season, because Oldham or Southend will win the league next campaign IMO.

It could be too late by then, neither of them will make the play-offs, too inconsistent.

Add Forest and Notts County too for the Notts triple v a Derbyshire double.
