every team can say that about at least 1 big result. We can say it about Stockport away and the Knoyle non red card that could have got us 3 more points - but as the saying goes things do tend to even up over a season.... so stop moaning and win a couple of games....
I think our defenders caught something of Grimsby on Friday, 2 sloppy goals given away in the 1st 10 mins and despite having most of the ball after that we didn't create enough. Whitfield scored after 89 mins and we had half chances after - but just were not gonna score again. Swindon and...
has anything meaningful (or anything at all) happened in the Grimsby match yet - other than Grimsby not giving away a goal yet with suicidal defending?
Path C - you lose or draw and Barrow beat Morecambe. You're 3 or 4 points ahead of Barrow, but have played a game more (Barrow's game in hand is Bradford at Home). You also have a trips to MK a week on Saturday and to Barrow on the last day. You lose them both and end up finishing 5th....
Ignoring our match and looking at the other teams around the top 7 here are my expectations tomorrow.
Stockport, whilst there's an outside chance of a draw they should win by at least a couple of goals.
Mansfield, it's the time of the season where they see the finishing line and shit themselves...
some teams just always seam to do well against certain teams and horrific against others. With us it's Friday's opponents Grimsby we can never beat, even when they got relegated last time they still did the double over us.
All our next 4 opponents are in the bottom 9 based on form in the last 5 games including both the bottom 2. A chance on paper at least to put some pressure on the top 3.
IF either Wrexham and Stockport are a point ahead of Mansfield and Barrow - or the other way round, there will be full on West Germany v Austria World Cup style conspiracy theories if the 2 teams at the top draw 0-0 knowing the draw would put them both up
