Mathematical confirmation of promotion deserves a quiet acknowledgment but a full blown celebration would be premature and inappropriate.
We have 4 very tough games ahead against teams who currently have a chance of either play offs, or automatic promotion in Tranmere’s case.
Our biggest threat is complacency, which I believe has cost us numerous points in recent home games. Our team is much, much better playing in a pressure situation. A ‘job done’ attitude could lead to poor results in the next few games, which might not stop us getting the title but would definitely tarnish the season, which we want to remember as a great one.
We must avoid doing what Doncaster did two years ago when they lost every match after securing promotion.
I’m sure we all want a genuine celebration after Colchester, not just to go through the motions.
The best way to secure that will be to treat every match to the end of the season as a cup final and to prove we are worthy champions.
