Fleetwood losing 1-0 to York, Rochdale and Scunthrope is drawing but Oxford and Chesterfield are winning 1-0. We need every help we can get!
 
Fleetwood lost 2-1 to York.
Rochdale lost 1-0 to Daggers - only their 3rd away win this season.
Burton drew 1-1 with Exeter.
Scunthorpe drew with Hartlepool.

Chesterfield and Oxford win though.

Think that is a good day for us, didn't expect many results to go our way. Chesterfield now extend their lead to 3 points although from 7th to 3rd there are only 2 points and could have been only 1 if Wimbledon managed to get a last minute equaliser.
 
Rochdale & Fleetwood lost, Scunny and Burton draw and both Chesterfield and Oxford won, it's better than I hoped for, we have to get back to winning way fast as top 3 is there for the taking!
 
Phew! Those results turned out pretty well for us. Fleetwood losing at home is great. Top 2 still within easy reach for us despite the last two draws.....

Yes but it's the classic glass half-filled/ half-empty syndrom. With the results today, the draw last night hasn't done us too much harm but of course, if we had won we'd really be moving into the driving seat as far as automatics go. in that case we'd only be behind Oxford on goal difference and just two points adrift of Scunny, with a game in hand.
I liked the comments from Rochdale manager following their 0-1 home defeat against Daggers.......I think they have universal application and certainly shouldn't be lost on some of our 'supporters' in the South stand.

"These supporters aren't on a blind date. They know what they are seeing, they know what we are trying to achieve and how we are trying to achieve it.
"Just because we go 1-0 down, we aren't going to go to back-to-front football. There has to be patience and understanding.

"They [the players] have to be encouraged when things aren't going our way. If they're not. They [the dissenting fans] are going to destroy everything that we are trying to build."
 
That was his first red card since the one he picked up on his Roots Hall comeback nearly a year ago.

He got sent off recently, a second yellow after having an argument with the opposition manager after the final whistle. I didn't think that refs could had out cards for incidents not in game play.
