It is true that Salop are almost there, but they will want to make sure of that by getting at least six more points on the board between now and the end of the season.

Six takes them to the magic 50-point number which is said to secure survival - even though maybe in this current campaign you might not need that many.

But after almost two weeks away from football, Town are back in action this Good Friday as they welcome Oxford to the Croud Meadow.

When the pair met earlier in the campaign at the Kassam Stadium the home side ran out comfortable 3-0 winners.
