I can think of several matches we ought to have won. Imagine how the table would've looked then...
Southport home, Macclesfield away, Southport away, Forest Green away, Luton Home.
13 more points and we would have been up close to Luton.
A mixture of bad luck and blunders lost us these points.
The point is.. We are not that far away from being a very good team!


You can look at it the other way were we could of easily drawn or lost, ie Woking away last min winner Wrexham the other week at home, it has evened it self out a bit as the season has gone on. Am happy with a playoff place just hope we can do a lot better in them this time. I think the league is poor this year going by other years this is the easiest.


Gtfc all the way

A 1-0 win gives us 3 pts,

The same as a 9 0 win.

I reckon ten points should be enough to see us in the play offs

Who would have believed it last week if anyone said we would reach 3rd place this week. UTMM


I was one who had doubts that we would get enough results to see us in the play off's.  Hopefully we can be a lot more clinical in front of goal but I am certainly alot more happy tonight than I have been over the last couple of months

PH has got to go - he'll be poached like Slade was if this carries on


Ask any man what nationality he would prefer to be, and ninety nine out of a hundred will tell you that they would prefer to be Englishmen.

Just a quick point - didn't York have a similar wobble in their promotion season? Maybe it's because we've got half of their team we're trying do exactly replicate their season?!

3rd in the league. How good would we be if the strikers turned up?  


Are they resting for the playoffs? Letting the rest of the team carry them, lull our opponents into a false sense of security only for them to spark over the final three games including at Wembley? Now that'd be a carlsberg sponsorship moment.

Now need Halifax to draw with Braintree on Thursday although I predict Halifax will beat a tiring Braintree side. How do those Essex part timers keep winning!!


They can't have been too tired last night to win 4-0 at Southport. I think they are a real threat, and they seem to be doing what Kiddi and Mansfield did last year. I just hope we don't need a result at their place on the last day of the season.

That said, 66 points with 8 matches to go is a great position to be in. You would think that 12 more points would be enough, so four wins and four defeats will do, but I fancy us to do better than that.

Just checked and last year we were on 66 points after 39 games, so we are slightly ahead of last seasons points.

Sixth place finished on 70 points last year. It looks like it will be higher than that this time round.

Yeah, but 5th spot, the one that matters, was 80 points last year, so 79 would have still not been enough for the play offs.

I think 78 or possibly even as low as 76 will get 5th spot this season.
