In the end 49 per cent of readers said they believed Stags were heading for the play-offs, though a healthy 35 per cent still had faith they could break back into those top three places.

There were three per cent who still believed results could dramatically swing upwards and this could be a title-winning season, but 13 per cent could see the season fading away and Stags end up missing out altogether.

After the four 1-1 draws in a row it is certainly on a knife-edge which way it will go.
