It's cold, it's wet, it's windy. So with nothing better to do, I looked at the remaining fixtures for the top five in the league.
Kings Lynn have games in hand, but have to play Chester and Gateshead away
York seem to have the easier run in, but have played more games than the other four
Boston seem to have the toughest run in with Brackley, Chester and Altrincham away but have the most games left at home.
Chester play four out of top five, with three of those games at home.
Brackley play all the other four teams in their run up
I think the dark horse is Gateshead, they play all the top five teams and except for Boston have the best form at the moment.
So if all teams go to present form, it makes very interesting reading. I am not suggesting these will be the final points total. We all know teams will hit a bad run, and anything can come out of the pack to steal a playoff place.
So here goes on present form only
York 87 points
Kings Lynn 84 points
Gateshead 84 points
Chester 84 points
Boston 82 points
Brackley 80 points
We have to get something away at Brackley, Chester and Altrincham and at home to Gateshead to improve our total.
Anyone else fed up and would like to predict?
