After our worst stretch of the season, we're two points from the top of the table with fourteen matches to go.

It's all there for the taking.

I said before the season started (when many were predicting 12th or below ) that we would finish 3rd and I haven’t changed my mind.
If correct get ready for 2 home play off games and a final.

We will know if this is possible after next 2 away games. Lets hope the team have some positivity away from home.

Looking at the remaining fixtures there a two or three tricky ones, but realistically the others are all winnable, and should be if we have serious aspirations to win the title.

We don't have to play Salford, Solihull, or Fylde again. We have Sutton and Harrogate at home and Gateshead and Orient away (of the current top 8).

No reason we shouldn't be looking at several wins. Key will be the away form.

Orient on the 9th could be a title decider. Gateshead is a potential banana skin. If they can sort out the away form, like you say, it could be ours to lose!

Have we got any more all weather pitches to play on?

Kind off irrelevant as away form is poor on any kind of surface.

True but it’s worse on all weather pitches.

It would be interesting to see what our stats are on artificial pitches.

Because I'm slightly bored today, I had a look:

Overall away record is W5, D5, L5. 20 points.

On artificial surfaces (Bromley, Harrogate, Maidstone and Sutton), we've got W0, D2, L2. 0.5 points per game.

On grass surfaces, we've got W5, D3, L3. 1.63 points per game.

I don't think we have any games left to play on artificial surfaces, although someone might correct me there.

We've still played enough away games on grass without winning over the last 4 months for our away form to be a major concern though. I really hope we start winning on the road again soon because this league really is there for the taking. 88-90 points is likely to be enough for the title, which is pretty low really for a 46 game season.

I'm also not convinced that it's a weak league this season as some have suggested. I think it's just a case of there's a lot of evenly matched teams at the top hence no-one's running away with it. I've seen enough results to suggest the lowest teams aren't the pushovers they may have once been, Braintree's win over Salford at the weekend being a prime example.
