    Certainly the games you want to be involved in. Looks tight on paper (league table, form , odds) the good news for both set for fans is the form has been so impressive recently both clubs that a defeat for either shouldn't result in a meltdown or panic. Will be interesting to see who misses...

    Ours was pretty sensational and dramatic tbf and of course a game less fun, frolics and great escapes but Grimsby's surely is the most dramatic and impressive NL playoff campaign.

    I'd love to know the difference in Platt's weekly wage between Bradford and Notts. Maybe the same difference as for Baldwin moving the other way.

    If not the pitch why would Platt won't to go to Notts rather than stay at Bradford? Oh and thanks by the way. I would imagine Notts fans were interested cos they probably didn't expect the Valley Parade pitch to be shocking last season oh and there was a postponement an hour or so before kick...

    That's football, that's football fans. Less than two months ago there were plenty who wanted our head coach gone. Fans are often premature and end up being disappointed with the outcome.

    I had no idea about the raised goal mouths. Do you think the poor state of your pitch is a big contributing factor to your poor home form? Or an easy excuse? Pitches ain't cheap, we've got the money so probably went above what was required at this level cos our old pitch held up very well in...

    A horrendous dull style of football and horrendous pitch is not the combination for building a fanbase and increasing your transfer/squad budget. Need to change that or your are treading water no matter how good the youth supply is to the first team squad.

    The poor state of the BP pitch is not what Notts fans want to hear. Didn't stop us knocking it about effectively at Gills on another cabbage patch of a pitch but sure doesn't help the possession based sides in the league.

    That is what I was going to say. Any. neutral watching our games against Bromley, Carlisle or Morecambe would wonder how we are doing so well recently and so high in the table. They would be left confused unsure who was the side near the top. Yet we deserved to win all due to the opposition...

    That blatant foul was a classic orange card for me , so a yellow not a red Bedeau has been fantastic this season, didn't know anything about him but do now.

    Look forward to seeing both of them in the team of the year at the end of this season.

    But at least you picked up and paid for Nemane and Crowley for us. So not a total failure.

    We've been stingy defensively all season and a while back you demanded clean sheets and Part Time Stu has delivered and more. If we can finally break our hoodoo against top sides we will get Top 3 however if it continues it will be the playoffs. Jones going off today is a worry. Jatta missing...

    Probably the same lot who were saying Walsall would win the league in early January. Loads of games left, loads of points to be won and lost. We need to carry on this great form before a really rough run of games in March. I think the Top 3 will come from the current Top 6 but god knows who.

    Nearly a five figure crowd when Morecambe are the opponents in League Two in February is simply fantastic. I blame the weird bros, takes far longer to get out the car park by the Stadium nowadays.

    Looks like the Super Computer might have found another gem based on last two performances by Mr Short Term Contract#radar Agree with 1862 don't read too much or get too carried away from further afield. All we've been doing is beating who we should. Will be a different story against the likes...

    We play a lot of sideways football.
