15th in the league and safe already? Don't want to patronise but surely that's a decent season for Barnet in your first season back.

If you say so. I'd be surprised if he started today. Likely to be Waring and Roofe up top, MacDonald and either Maguire or O'Dowda wide. Should come off the bench though.

Whatever his motivation for denying it, whether he actually hadn't said anything or whether he was trying to get away with something; it's still a giant leap to say that because he denied it you're inclined to believe that the lad holds genuinely racist views as opposed to thinking he was a...

How come this is an early kick off??

I doubt he is somehow. Would think it more likely he's made a stupid mistake in the heat of the moment, served his punishment and moved on.

Masterplan's a bit strong, but Allen's gameplan was spot on for us. Massively worked first half. Little concerned it'll be similar tomorrow, but hopefully Dunkley can continue his good form. We missed him that day. Has to be said, for the best part of an hour we did dominate that match. Just...

Hoping and expecting Wycombe to get something here. Probably about 3 red cards in this one as well.

Needed that.

Completely agree with all of this, saved me 5 minutes writing up what i watched. We livened up when Alex MacDonald came on and provided some width and structure. Neither full back gets forward well enough (and Kenny had by far his worst game for us yesterday) so we can't afford to have no...

Thanks, sounds like we're playing you at a decent time then. Still think it'll be tough. Big test for Dunkley against Simpson, Jake Wright missing for us. Looking forward to it.

I hate this fixture. Both sets of fans irritate the life out of me around it. Team goes up, team goes down. Some people run on the pitch and act like twats, some just run on the pitch to celebrate and don't bait the home fans, some stay in the stands. Every team would be the same in the same...

I dunno if people are being too nice, I don't think we'd struggle. You only have to look at the clubs that went up last season to see how thin the gap is. How much more we'd need to compete for promotion again though is another question altogether. I'd want a new keeper even if we'd stayed down.

Not how I'd describe them at all.

Holds the ball up well, puts a shift in and hasn't done horrifically in front of goal this season. Not the most ruthless finisher in the world though. Isn't the quickest or tallest either, and when I say that I mean he is slowwww. Really hope he does well for you anyway. It won't be through...

There was very little football played. Wasn't possible. Makes your Ardley comment before all the more fascinating! I thought it was an even game settled by one piece magic from Bowery; and one bit of incompetence from Rigg. Neither team was 'the better team' so to speak. I remember very little...

Ha, wow. There was certainly no over- passing yesterday. Fair enough, maybe you'll do better than I think then! It's worth adding that we were missing our captain and our two best players yesterday to the list of reasons why I don't think you will, but I certainly hope your home record improves...

I didn't say anything about Wimbledon being dirty did I? I didn't think you were at all actually, especially considering how much Maguire and Hylton were on the wind up yesterday. You were though, very direct. Everything was long into Tom Elliott and you've a team that's built to play a certain...

Think we'll benefit from getting our toughest fixtures out the way early. After Plymouth and Orient the next two Saturdays, we've got a run of 8 games versus teams 12th-24th.

That was huge for us yesterday, especially with Barnet doing us a favour. If I'm honest, I'd be very surprised if Wimbledon made the playoffs; but the way they play football is all wrong for us. That's not a criticism - on that pitch, they've no option but to be direct; but to get three points...

Frustrating that. I think 'ruthlessly efficient' is an excellent description of Northampton. Thistinpotleague sums it up very well. Reminded me a lot of Stevenage Borough under Westley. Very direct, two big strikers winning everything, Holmes the spark. It's a good team that will win the league...
