The permutations IF we are to make it into the playoffs - RedPassion.co.uk

If I'm reading the table right, we must win at home to Fylde but then require three games to go our way:

Maidenhead to win or hold Bromley to a draw

AND

Woking to win or hold Dover to a draw.

AND

Boreham Wood to lose enough to Guiseley to make up a 5 goal difference (MOD EDIT ADDED IN)

Woking have survival to play for, but Maidenhead have nothing but plans for the beach now so will be unlikely.

If Woking do lose, at least that's the back of a bogey team, even if it is 20 minutes away from me.

You also need Boreham Wood to lose. Not only that, we would need to gain 5 GD points on Boreham Wood. Even the “Happy Clappers” know the season is over.

FML didn't even look at GD. Thanks.

There’s no chance we’ll even have a shot on target against them let alone win and have all that go for us as well.

Attendance 2,500.

Attendance will be at least 3,000 remember they count non-attending season ticket holders too.

And Fylde will want to win to not only ensure a play off place, but also to finish 4th or 5th to be at home in the first play off game, so even a 1 goal win for us would be a surprise

The most points we can get is 72pts
5 Teams have already got more than this. The 6th Team Fylde have 72pts
and Boreham Wood have 72pts. Our goal difference is so inferior to Fylde that we would require a 9-0 result on Saturday to overtake them

Boreham Wood GD is 15 and ours is currently GD10. Therefore mathematically a 3-0 win for us and a 3-0 win for Guisley away to Boreham Wood would be sufficient

Then you have to hope that Bromley and Dover don't win

It is going to be an odd atmosphere as I expect a fair bit of grief to the self confessed bottlers, and anger at missing out on an 'easy' league - however there will be the usual applause regardless mixed in!
