Post subject:  The last six run in.
I've just been looking at our run in to the season's end and it really dosen't look good for us. Wakefield h, Doncaster a, Dewsbury h, Toulouse a, Bradford h, and Whitehaven a. I reckon we'll only win one of those games, Dewsbury at home. If we have to go to 'haven on the last day of the season and both teams need the win i really don't think this set of players have the will to win such a match. Last week's debacle at Swinton looks a really disastrous result now. How has it come down to this? We need to pull a 'surprise' two points out of somewhere but where could that be?

Swinton and Donny have even tougher run ins. 2 wins will be good enough I reckon. Dewsbury at home, and by the time Haven come around they'll probably be fielding loads of amateurs just to complete their fixtures.

Whitehaven only have a squad of 15 tomorrow and I can't see this improving much before the end of the season. The way Fax have played over the last month very difficult to work out how they'll do in these 6 games - I can't believe though that we won't beat Dewsbury and Whitehaven which should as a minimum get us to 3rd bottom. Not wanting to be too negative but if we end up in a play off where would it take place?

Apart from our unpredictable form injuries are same as and could play a crucial role for all the clubs in the run in just hope we don’t have any more especially to our key players.

At The Shay against Keighley more than likely.

Well, it sure is squeaky bum time over the next few weeks. The respective run ins for the relegation candidates are as follows, and I've predicted the likely outcomes (irrespective of whether a team "could" win, I'm just going with current quality/form):

Fax
Doncaster (A) - L
Dewsbury (H) - W
Toulouse (A) - L
Bradford (H) - L
Haven (A) - W

Barrow
Fev (A) - L
Toulouse (H) - L
Haven (H) - W
Wakey (A) - L
Widnes (H) - L

Swinton
Wakey (H) - L
Fev (H) - L
Dewsbury (A) - W
Donny (H) - W
Bradford (A) - L

Haven
York (H) - L
Wakey (A) - L
Barrow (A) - L
Batley (A) - L
Fax (H) - L

Donny

Fax (H) - W
Batley (A) - L
Widnes (H) - L
Swinton (A) - L
Wakey (A) - L

Punching in all those predictions will give the following final table:

Donny - 21
Fax - 20
Barrow - 19
Swinton - 18
Haven - 16
Dewsbury - 2

Substitute a Fax win at Donny shows what a massive game that is and it "should" see us OK.

Just a thought back on the other issue of relegation.

Swinton’s win against Fev was a real boost for them and to be fair all credit to them as I think against the top sides they’ve done better than anyone including turning us over twice.

Batley are now down in the mix and by coincidence like us play their last 3 games against Bradford, Whitehaven and Toulouse in order away, home and away.

Well, we can't finish in the bottom 2 cos Barrow play Whitehaven. Swinton need to win their last 3 to leap frog us and we lose our last 3. If Batley lose at home to Haven they've a good chance of finishing 3rd from bottom cos of their tough trips to Toulouse and Bradford. We wouldn't have had this much excitement if we were safe in (say) 4th!
