It's not looking good is it. A minimum of a draw at Chester and even that may not be enough. Chester have won their last 5 games and only conceded twice in that time.
Can't see us getting anything there, unlikely that Margin be will beat Hereford but stranger things have happened.
I knew at the time that the Bedford game was the one we couldn't afford to lose.

Thanks to goal difference, if Hereford were to lose on Tuesday or Saturday, we are safe.

If they don't lose either of their last two, a point on Saturday would see us safe, as Alfreton and Curzon play each other, and only one of them could overtake us. We would remain above Hereford on goal difference.

Hope this helps bring some clarity.  :thanks:

If Hereford win both their games, Curzon beat Alfreton and Bedford draw. Then a point at Chester won't be enough. Hopefully Marine will beat Hereford tomorrow

Not if Hereford draw tonight and then beat Peterborough Sports by 8 goals.
Chester will beat us on Saturday, I've seen nothing from recent games to think we will come away with anything. Really got to hope that Hereford lose tonight.

Yes, if Hereford had drawn tonight, a point would have seen us safe. Reason being, Hereford would now be on 49pts and could only get 52, the same us. Our goal difference is superior by a large margin and 8 goal defeats in two consecutive matches, at this level are highly unlikely. I

However, as the Marine keeper managed to throw away a point at the death, WHEN Hereford beat Peterborough Sports on Saturday, even if it's by 7 (they've scored than us), if we get a point and Alfreton beat Curzon, I believe we survive.

Only other miracle occurrence would be Peterborough Sports beating Hereford. I think I'll keep my fingers crossed for plan A.

Hereford won tonight if we don't get a draw at Chester we are down.
