All nice problems to have for NJ considering where we were at Christmas, everything now is a bonus whether we finish 4th or 5th, I personally don't care who we play and when, if we want to be considered as good enough to go up, we have to beat all comers anyway.
He doesn't leave anything to chance. He's meticulous. I really like that about him. Take this video, for example. He's conning the Burton management by making it look like he's taking it easy by taking a few days off in Spain. Why else would they have shot that video as if it's during a powercut?
At least with Burton now safe we wont have any concerns about having to select our best team.
Burton are not just going to go through the motions as they're now safe. They are professional players who will still want to win so we need to play our strongest team available to continue our good run (Wrexham apart) and go into the playoffs on a high. No problem with leaving out players who may be carrying a slight knock or who NJ thinks need a rest but a win will put us in a better frame of mind going into the next 2 (hopefully 3) games.
If players don’t feature, and it isn’t because of injury, then I take it as a sign that Jones has got over the disappointment everybody feels after Wrexham and will be fully focussed on the play offs.

Taken to further levels by adding a Brit tourist style sunburn

what I meant was, If they could still have gone down and we field a weakened team against them, and they beat us and stay up, we could be up before the league. At least that used to be the case it may not be relevant anymore.

And even if the EFL aren't taking action, there is an unwritten rule that teams try their hardest, especially if the result has an impact elsewhere.

I don’t think he will start anyone who hasn’t played this season, and those who are selected will try their hardest.
