Jay Williams being one booking away from a 3 match ban is a genuinely scary prospect.
Whatever anyone’s opinion of his abilities are, and I rate him very highly, we definitely cannot afford to be without him at this critically important point in the season.
We are all well aware of the standard of refs in our league so it only needs one daft or plainly unfair booking going against him and we’re done for.
Thank goodness we’ve got Harry Ransom to step in potentially but really we need every single fit and available player at this stage of the season for sure.

Unfortunately you don't get this number of bookings without cause
To be honest, I think that is season over now. We were lucky a lot of our rivals lost but I think Doncaster are favourites for that 7th spot now, or they could even finish 6th.
Our one hope is Scott giving the team an absolute rollicking for that performance today, somehow sort out that defence (at least Williams, Ransom and Mukena know how to) and somehow best Barrow on Tuesday, and hope they lose their game in hand. Need Ransom and Gladwin on the pitch. Even on crutches they can't play any worse than the defence today!
At least Grimsby look like they will be save by the time we play them.

Season over?!? We’re not 8 points outside the playoffs in 11th place and having to accept we won’t make them!! We’re in the playoffs still. Doncaster will have to win 11 games in a row to reach the playoffs, when does that ever happen? And they have 3 tricky matches remaining.
Tues 23 April Col U v Doncaster Rovers could be key. I just hope Im not watching out for this result because we need Col U to prevent a DR win.
Barrow also have hard fixtures. After us they have Doncaster away (draw best for us?) and Bradford (again on Tues 23) and Mansfield at home. Walsall have Swindon and Bradford at home, and then Wimbledon away.
I will be looking out for the Colchester Grimsby result on Tuesday. A draw will mean Grimsby will be safe from relegation whereas a Colchester Win will mean Sutton will have to win their last two games to stay up.
I just looked at the form guide. We have lost 3 out of the last 6, but our form is still better than Barrow, Crewe, Gillingham, Walsall, and Wimbledon. As Scott has said before he needs to work on the team's confidence this week. If they play and start well they can beat anyone starting with Barrow on Tuesday.

We will beat Grimsby GUARANTEED. They will have nothing to play for by that time. However we still need 1 more win from Barrow or Sutton. Those will be the Tricky 2 games. 71 Points will be enough for play offs!

That is what I would hope, but I would rather not leave it to the last game. We know how the team can play if they are under pressure to win.
