After today's win the "ten game" form predictions have us finishing 16th, with Canvey below us in 17th; mind you, these predictions don't take into account the quality of the opposition in our (or anyone else's) remaining games.
The position at the bottom hasn't changed in a while and doesn't seem very likely to: Kingstonian, Margate, Concord and Haringey to go down, with Cheshunt the only other team who have anything to worry about, although they are probably OK.
At the top end, things are a lot tighter. Hornchurch will win the league and Chatham are pretty much certs for the play-offs; behind them it's too close to call between Horsham, Dulwich, Enfield, Bognor and Wingate and Finchley for the other three places, with Carshalton, Hastings and surprisingly Potters Bar the main outsiders. (Potters Bar's form is very good and they have a few games in hand - in reality they will be pushed to maintain that form over the games they have left).
Billericay's form is so bad that, unless it picks up, they might not even finish in the top half of the table - as it is, they have slipped out of the top 5 in the actual league table.
