9 points guarantees promotion, since even if Hudds win all 3 they would remain 11 points behind us with 3 games to play. Southampton would also have to take at least 7 points out of 9 to retain a mathematical chance of pipping us to the championship on goal difference.

Either 6 or 7 points is likely to guarantee promotion. Hudds would have to win all 3 of their games (with SCC also taking 5+ points) to retain a mathematical chance of overtaking us. And given their fixtures, Hudds are likely to drop points.

It would be lovely to get promotion done and dusted before we play Stains. The pressure will all be on them......

On current form there's no reason why we should'nt be looking at getting 7 points but I'd be happy with 5 points.

I would honestly hope for nine. No reason why we shouldn't.

SW are iffy at best at the moment. Home game, we should win.
D&R have shown some form, but at home? We should win.
Walsall? Potential upset, but pools panel would say (a) win.

9 points guarantees promotion

8 actually (although 7 would probably do because of GD).

I'd be happy with 6 (win both homes games, have a slipup at Warsaw) but I can see 9 and PROMOTION

Completely agree. 9 points and a promotion party at Walsall

Am I right in saying that if we win all three, and Saints drop at least 3 points then we've won the league?
