Let’s play devils advocate. The teams we can still get above in the league (let’s assume we win our final 3 games), their remaining fixtures, my guess at the outcomes and therefore their final points tally.

Swindon
Win v Basingstoke
Win v Sholing
Draw v Winchester
Total points - 50

Hayes
Lose v Gosport
Lose v Salisbury
Win v Plymouth
Lose v Bracknell
Total points - 45

Hanwell
Draw v Sholing
Draw v Dorchester
Win v Plymouth
Lose v Hungerford
Lose v Salisbury
Total points - 47

Sholing
Draw v Hanwell
Lose v Walton
Win v Hendon
Lose v Swindon
Draw v Tiverton
Total points - 47

Tiverton
Lose v Chesham
Draw v Dorchester
Draw v Winchester
Lose v Harrow
Draw v Sholing
Total points - 43

Plymouth
Lose v Salisbury
Win v Didcot
Lose v POole
Lose v Hanwell
Lose v Walton
Lose v Hayes
Lose v Totton
Lose v Beaconsfield
Total points - 45

That would have the table looking like this;

15 - Swindon (50)
16 - Hanwell (47)
17 - Sholing (47)
18 - Hayes (45)
—————————
19 - Plymouth (45)
20 - Harrow (45)
21 - Tiverton (43)
22 - Didcot

So in this scenario, to stay up, we would need Hayes to lose out or just take a draw v Plymouth. That would drop them to 43. We would move up to 19th. We would then need Sholing or Hanwell to drop a win. Maybe our friends at Hendon can beat them or Plymouth have a better run of form than my prediction and also beat Hanwell.

I did say it was a fantasy land but whilst there’s a possibility there’s hope. If we are to survive on merit, I think it will be at the expense of Tiverton, Hayes and Sholing. I strongly doubt that though, however, I can see us getting another 4 points and putting us on a decent points per game ratio for any reprieves that might happen.
