Remaining fixtures + current league position + current form position (6 games):
H Dulwich 20 18 A East Thurrock 20 18 A Hornchurch 5 13 H East Thurrock 20 18 A Bury 12 24 A Billericay 15 11 A Enfield 21 7 H Bognor 4 5 A Met Police 13 9 H Grays 16 6
Four homes, six aways - not the run-in anyone would dream of.
I reckon we need at least 5 wins or 4 + a couple of draws to get into the play-offs.
On paper, our two East Thurrock games, the away game at Bury and the final game should be wins, add 2 draws from our other home games, or a couple of draws away, and that might be enough. Of course, the ideal games to win would be Dulwich, Hornchurch and Bognor, as these are effectively '6 pointers' (although Bognor could well be too far ahead of us for it to matter by then).
As Trigger says, the next three games could be vital - two '6 pointers' against teams not doing as well as you would expect (although Hornchurch had a good result tonight), plus an 'easy' away. If we get 6 points (or even 4) out of those and then beat Thurrock at home, we could be back on course. After that it's an 'easy' away and a couple of possible draws, or even wins. And that would set us up nicely for the home game with Bognor, and the final run-in.
So, despite everything, we're still in with a good chance.
But not if we play like we have for the last three games. Carry on like that and we can kiss the play-offs goodbye.

thought we were unlucky not to get anything from the Lowestoft game. Can't comment on the last two matches as I wasn't there

We lost 2-1 at Lowestoft and Jack was sent off near the end.
