Back to our 3-1 scoreline. Chambers, Grigg and Baxendale.

Taundz to hit the post in the last minute, in frustration at not getting a game, and breaks knuckles in the process.

Cor goo as I am with customers at the Swansea v ArsenalFC game. Will be taking more interest in the phone than watching the game I reckon.

As an aside, I have the match ball sponsorship package at £1000 - cracking value for a prem club.

Walsall will win 2-0 again with Mantom and Brandy getting the goals. 4264 with 212 visitors from Sussex.

A hard fought 2-1 home win.

It's always the matches we expect to win that cause the most pain. I think Crawley may still be eyeing their chances at a late play off push. Beat us and win their games in hand and they're right up there with us.

That being said I think we'll get:

2 - 1

Brandy, Patterson.

Att 4418 (231)

Other matches to look out for:

Brentford vs Preston (D)
Coventry vs. Hartlepool (D)
Doncaster vs. Portsmouth (H)
MK Dons vs. Tranmere (H)
Leyton Orient vs. Carlisle (H)

Tuesday: Yeovil vs. Swindon (D)

Up The Saddlers.

We can tell you are worried by the way you keep coming back. Only 4 points behind you now, despite all of your overspending (cheating) how could that be possible?

Yes.... Odds are that if you keep predicting Walsall to lose then I suppose eventually we might. Scatter gun technique. I would have thought your own wobble would have provided you Swindon fans enough to talk about amongst yourselves.... You must really be looking over your shoulder!!!

Anyway Up The Saddlers. We're exceeding expectations this season, Paolo Di Canio dislikes Swindon so much that even when you were looking dead certs for promotion he got the hell out of there!!!

Another hardfought 3-1 win to the Saddlers [Brandy, Mantom and Westcarr] in front of 4,475, including 150 Creepies.

Tomorrow's game is another one of these schools partnership matches where the sign specialist stand is likely to have between 1000-1500 youngsters, so this should have an impact on the crowd. As for the game, a comfortable 2-0 victory for the super saddlers! Grigg and Brandy to score.

Lets just win this, by hook or by crook. Keep this thing alive as long as we can. Come on you Saddlers. Sorry I can't be present, but you will be in my thoughts as always !

Think you're right mate. Keeping this alive is what it is all about. Whether we make it or not in the end, the extra income from the season reaching an exciting climax could well give Smith the funds to secure another few contracts.

If we can average an extra 2,000 fans over four games at a conservative average of £15 a throw that's an extra £120,000 right there. That's an extra £500 per week on two two-year contracts which could just swing a couple of players. Even better if you could spread it thinner and keep another 3 or 4 players. So keeping it alive is big on all levels

In which case the attendance will be 5,475 rather than the 4,475 I originally predicted :wink: .

As well as we have been playing we have yet to give anyone a right dicking and my gut feeling is that today could be the day. I fancy us to stick in 5 or 6.

Elsewhere....could be some kind of record at Bury, where a Colchester player (Porter) is sent off after 3 minutes for foul and abusive language. :shock:

AND..... MK Dons 1 Tranmere Rovers 0 (9 min) :D

Their keeper appears to be wearing the same colour shirt as the rest of the team.
