Sunderland's fixtures have come out very skewed: no games between March 16 and April 3 then 9 games in 32 days, where they'll be playing catch-up on Barnsley and Luton from three games behind.

3 of Scunny's last 5 are at home, against the B's - Burton, Blackpool, Bratford. Away to Charlton and then Plymouth on the last day, which will not be great if we (or they) need something.
At the top, Sunderland just need a point from their 2 in hand to overhaul Barnsley, which even they should manage.

Rovers appear to have decided that they do fancy a play-off place after all. Mind we still have to go to Sunderland on Good Friday, and could do without dropping points in the other games as we host Coventry on the final day.

Quiet little game going on at Sunderland currently. Coventry have just gone ahead for the fourth time in the match, this time making it 5-4. Let's see if they can hang on to that advantage in the way they didn't the previous three times.
Goal order, btw
12' 0-1
15' 1-1
18' 1-2
25' 1-3
41' 2-3
45+4' 3-3
55' 3-4
69' 4-4
78' 4-5

They're not quite relegated, very much on the brink though, they need to win all 4 and hope everything else goes their way, which will be tough as Rochdale, Southend and Walsall are playing each other so will of course pick up points.
They will probably be down when they visit Glanford Park on the penultimate day, when they will of course turn into Barca and drag us down with them. The Iron today showed their stomach for the fight by rolling over at home to Burton, 0-3.

That pitch looks like I laid it. Must be due to the dry spell.
I followed ten incandescent Germans in through the late gate when I visited Accrington. I think that, like me, their car or taxi had got stuck in the post-Burnley v Spurs traffic as they tried to do two games in a day.

With two games to go, Scunthorpe have nestled into one of the highly coveted League 1 relegation spots. They lost impressively at Charlton, 4-0, with Southend overtaking them by beating Burton.
So we need to beat relegated Bradford on Saturday, and then will need something from the trip to Plymouth, who are themselves very much in the relegation hunt, rolling over emphatically for Barnsley today.
Luckily Wimbledon's game in hand is away to Luton, who luckily still need the points, but they'll be reasonably hopeful of getting something from Wycombe (h) and Bradford again (a) to leapfrog over Plymouth or Scunthorpe, or indeed Southend or Accrington, who will be looking to lose their remaining games to steal a relegation spot.

I worry Wimbledon have missed their window of opportunity. They came back from ten points adrift of safety and a goal difference at least ten worse than anyone else in early February to be level on points with 20th place a couple of weeks ago and with a GD better than a few teams around them.
However, three draws in a row and only one win in five have seen them slip back slightly. Wycombe have found a couple of wins in the last three games after an appalling run so aren't an easy opponent next week and teams like Rochdale have leapfrogged The Dons and made themselves safe with a bit of recent form.
Luton tomorrow is a hiding to nothing (I'm making a rare away game, for some reason) and lawd knows what Bradford will be like on the last day now they're relegated. I'm not hopeful.
