Quoted from Belfast Town

We are Town. No matter what. Let's face it, we're signed up for life.

Yes, this is a set back, and we're probably not now going up as champions. But there is still the play-offs. Just because we didn't succeed in getting promotion this way in the last few seasons, there is no reason to believe we can do it this year.

Omar has tweeted: You expect more and so do we. We'll deliver #DontPanic 😄⚫️⚪️

Believe.

And, you know what, if we don't, we'll still be supporting them next season in this god awful league.

Your completely right, of course............ But the danger is that we may lose momentum as we can't win the league and have a bit of a cushion ahead of the team in 6th.  4 points out of 9 would suggest a slump.

We all realise that winning the league is now beyond us,

That gives us a few advantages,

When we play FGR and Cheltenham those two teams will be nervous because they do not want to lose points to us enabling the other one to overtake them at the top,

Then depending how many points we have once we get to the last few games,
We can rest certain players so they will be fresh for the play offs,

So its not all doom and gloom at the moment,

That will only come if we do not win the bloody play offs.

Quoted from AlfredTheGreat
9 wins in 11 league matches before yesterday, then a 0-0 draw. If that is "thin" I don't know what your thick is. Now who is "spoilt"?


Yep, and we mullered Cheltenham and FGR along the way and now sit proudly at the top of the table..........You're deluded my son.  We beat a few pub teams, we haven't played well since December.

Thank you for that contribution Mrs Hurst.

Shame the season started in August not December.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

We have had this same 'advantage" going into the play offs the last three seasons , It never helped us before so why would it help us now ?
