The Magic Number

is 97; no matter what other sides do, if we reach 97 points we are promoted.

Of course with sides below us playing each other and losing the occasional point the Magic Number could be much less (for instance; if soton, brizzle & hudds fail to win & we beat swindon, we could be 1 win from the play-offs).

We are closer than most of us can imagine.
