Whilst we probably need another win from our 4 remaining games to be sure, given an 11 point cushion it is quite possible that our rivals will do the job for us............
Both Bedford and Bristol need to win next week for promotion play off positions. The following week Jersey will have little chance at Newcastle whilst Nottingham should prove too strong for Donny.
That leaves the decisive Jersey v Donny game on 13th April where a home win would settle the thing.
Donny – currently 11 behind 23/03/2013 Bedford Blues v Doncaster Knights 29/03/2013 Doncaster Knights v Nottingham 13/04/2013 Jersey v Doncaster Knights 20/04/2013 Doncaster Knights v Plymouth Albion
Jersey – currently 5 behind 23/03/2013 Jersey v BRISTOL 29/03/2013 Newcastle Falcons v Jersey 13/04/2013 Jersey v DONCASTER KNIGHTS 20/04/2013 Cornish Pirates v Jersey
*Jersey also have a trip to Pontypridd in the B&I Cup on 5/4/13
Given that we beat Bristol, Jersey may well do the same. If we get a point or 4 from Leeds and beat Scottish I think we'd be safe whatever Donny or Jersey do, and I fancy us to beat Roth away too. We'll be going to that match, 5 in the family, we go every year, and given that the MSA coach is full we should have some good support there and I've seen some good performances up there, this year I think we can take the points. so maybe 2 or 3 wins from our last 4 games will surely see us safe and maybe even over take Albion? I think we're playing well enough to do it. cmon you Mose.

Doncaster need two wins with five points and a bonus point in a third game to equal our points. I can't see them beating Bedford and Nottingham so it down to their last two games to win and take maximum points,so the pressure is on them I think
