York the real threat?
York the real threat?
I'm now fearing York more than Steveange as the main title challengers, particularly looking at their fixtures over the next month...
Starting tonight their fixtures over the next month are:
Barrow h (20th), Ebbsfleet a (18th), Luton h (7th) , Mansfield a (4th), Eastbourne h (19th), Grays a (23rd) , Forest Green a (21st), Salisbury h (17th) - which could easily give them 20 points....whereas we'll do well to get 15 from our set of games:
Luton a (7th), Histon h (14th), R&D a (6th) , AFCW h (5th), Chester a (24th), Cambridge a (15th) , H&Y h (16th)
That then leaves them:
Kiddie a, AFCW h, Tamworth h, Chester a, Altrincham h, Eastbourne a, Grays h, Alty a & stevenage h on the final day
so not a lot to hold them up there either.......!
I just hope we stay close enough in touch and in some semblance of form to real them in with our April run of games....
HAyes a, Salisbury h, Alty a, Cambridge h, Mansfield h, Wrexham h, Eastbourne a

York may well be more of a threat than Stevenage.
However, 5 of their remaining fixtures are exactly the same as ours (well, probably 4 judging by tonight's news from Forest Green!) and in the rest there are a lot of fixtures against clubs at the arse end of the table who will be scrapping for points - Ebbsfleet in particular isn't as easy a fixture as it appears on paper.
And don't forget the two games in hand we have on York are at home.

York could claim to have had their "dip" early in the season, but surely their current run of form (10-1-0, I believe) can't continue for 30 matches? When did ANY team have such a run?
I read most York reports in the NLP and they have been far from convincing in recent games, even according to their own fans. So on the assumption that they stall at some stage, and Stevenage have proved they can lose to anyone, all is not doom and gloom for Oxford.
IF we pick our own game up of course ....

Spot on. We need to sort out own form out first."boris" wrote:It's not York or Stevenage who are the main threats. It's our own bloody team.

Ok then if I must - Baboo says, "York are the form team at the moment"."rambler" wrote:Have to agree with this, but you have got to say that York are the form team at the moment"boris" wrote:It's not York or Stevenage who are the main threats. It's our own bloody team.
