I think by highlighting their fixtures you are pointing out they could be in for a tasty haul of points. Its a very good run in but I still think they will fall short of 100 points...they have 10 away and only 8 at home but I would admit they should pick up a lot of points from these fixtures.

I think that run of eight over 29 days in March'll slow 'em down some --OoTM back at the bottom of Page 4 expressed the hope that they'll "lose one soon," and based on that upcoming run of opposition, it looks like it may require a month's wait.

In any case, it's not hard to see three draws and a loss coming their way before the wire, yep.

Most timely indeed, and I should have mentioned before that Swansea's upcoming run of fixture fun includes a two-legged tie, to be played before the end of this month, against MK Dongers in the Southern Section final of that lower-divisions cup competition that has something to do with paint.

Swansea are now realistically the only side who can get close....still think they wont get much beyond 90 points though...particularly with the additional Mickey Mouse cup games to play.

i don't see why you should be worried by watford...a home win and an away draw could set you up for promotion in 2009...

Hereford lose to Dag & Redbridge Chase over in this division now. Only Swansea left. They can still get 112. Need to draw four or lose and draw to drop seven points.

Swans have just lost to Milwall so maximum they can now get is 109....

...with 12 to play

March: 11/Tranmere/H 15/N'hampton/A 18/BristolR/A 21/Southend/A 24/BristolR/H 29/H'pool/A

April: 5/Bournemouth/H 8/Carlisle/A 12/Gillingham/A 19/Yeovil/H 26/Orient/H 3May/Brighton/A

A most welcome and unexpected result today. Swans 15-3-0 in the division since losing at home to Hudds on 16th November.

Yep it was a tremendous run but as we have discussed the March pile up of fixtures was going to catch up with them particularly as they are now suffering a few injuries but they have kept this thread chugging along for longer than I thought likely

Greenacre levels for visiting Tranmere on 90', and it ends 1-all at the Lib.

Swans' season max now 107 with 11 to play, and nothing less than perfection would do to match or surpass RFC 2005/6.

I think Northampton have safely put Swansea to bed today.
