And tbh I think we have a lot to thank Darius's better half for that. We were okish defending but you dont win games if you dont score goals. That 0-6-4 formation just doesnt work ;)</p> <p>Cant see how 4th from top works - the maximum points we can make are 56 so that would put us 7th, though it negates the scores from the other sides as well. This is going to be a very close run in. Personally, I think we will know one way or another by the two easter games. </p> http://www.eufcforum.com/forum/topic/i-never-thought-that-i-would-say-this#post-411839 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 22:04:26 +0000 Hempstead Gaz 411839@http://www.eufcforum.com/forum/ <p>That's where it matters.<br /> If you don't score for about 8 games, the season will always be an uphill struggle, and so it has proved. </p> http://www.eufcforum.com/forum/topic/i-never-thought-that-i-would-say-this#post-411838 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 21:50:03 +0000 Hirsty 411838@http://www.eufcforum.com/forum/ <p>Not truly dreadful Gaz......a few games we did the right things until we got to the opposition's 18 yard box......but then you knew that didn't you Fabio ?! </p> http://www.eufcforum.com/forum/topic/i-never-thought-that-i-would-say-this#post-411837 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 21:47:39 +0000 Hirsty 411837@http://www.eufcforum.com/forum/ <p>Look at Sir David's link ( so to speak !!)...it says highest possible finish 4th !!!......although I would settle for 4th from bottom.....but we don't want to give you that ?!

One might also argue that Barrow could find it tough with the extra games and the Trophy SF to play.
