Leaders Wigan are away at Wycombe. Their result today is irrelevant to us. If they win they can open up a 14 point lead over us.

Of more concern is the matches invoving Crewe and Oldham. Crewe have a trip to Chesterfield. A win for the Railwaymen will see them steaming 5 points ahead of City, OK we will have a game in hand but I'd rather have the points. We must hope Chesterfield do us a favour by at least drawing with Crewe.

Oldham are at home to Notts County. We had a chance last night to open up a 3 three point gap on Oldham therefore putting them under pressure as we would still have a game in hand. Now they can overtake us today if they win, and the pressure is back on us. Again we will have games in hand but we are not in winning form. Points in the bag mean so much.

Bristol City, without a win this year, are away at Northampton and QPR, in form, are at home to Mansfield.
