So by all accounts 6 wins should be just about enough to save us. I think we should target certain games and go all out in those. Other games we should forget our attacking instincts and play for a draw.

A Havant & Waterlooville - Play 100% totally defensive. Aim for a point.
A Billericay Town - Play 50/50 and take the point if drawing with 20 left
H Leiston - Play 100% totally defensive. Aim for a lucky point.
H Billericay Town - Go gung ho and play for the win or else
A Leatherhead - absolute 6 pointer must win at all costs versus relegation rivals, throw the kitchen sink job.
H Needham Market - Play 100% totally defensive. Aim for a point.
A AFC Sudbury - Go Gung ho...etc
H Tonbridge Angels - 100% defensive
A Folkestone Invicta - gung ho...
H Metropolitan Police - 9 pointer must win or start planning for life in lower division
A Harrow Borough - 12 pointer must win or start planning for life in lower division
H Staines Town - Started planning yet? :-)

i think we're probably gonna need to win all of our last 4 games to stay up. If that happens it will be a God like miracle. Any one got any better plans? :-)

Based on our away form against top sides we'll probably have more chance of 3 points at H&W than some of our "easier" games.

As proven v Bognor, we can compete with and score against the top sides. Leiston and Needham at home we could definitely win. The must win games are Leatherhead, Sudbury, Harrow.

There's always a mid table team that looks safe that switches off and drops into the mire late on as well, could be Folkestone or Met Police or even Lowestoft.

It's ironic the results we've got against the top sides. Maybe our formation has benefited versus these types on the road. Has the loss of Niko and Karl undermined this going into these crunch games? Conjecture. No escaping the fact we have limitations. Width and creativity are my personal red flags through-out the season. Both attacking and defensively. I believe one hundred per cent we are capable of staying up. I want a star to emerge and take the game by the scruff of the neck. I look at the lad Ball in midfield. He's impressed. His movement around the edge of the box. We need a playmaker to prize open these tight defences. We need to improve all-round. Our retention, our delivery has been poor, our set-pieces telegraphed. For me, the past six months is water under the bridge - our season starts now. Is it possible to relish a relegation scrap? Yes it is.
I think if everybody is honest we have, regardless of all factors, let ourselves down a bit. Time to put things right.
