[The Terminator]

1-0 Aldershot with George Elokobi scoring from a corner.............

We'll probably have to rest one or two as this is our 4th game in 10 days..............

 

[Urban]

Halifax are somehow 3/1 to beat us. Will lump on.

 

[Chief Rocka]

I reckon Fylde will give us a good poke up the arse here, be over the moon with a point.

 

[CFC91]

We seem to enjoy playing away from home so expecting something here

 

[chipmunx]

we seam to do reasonably well against Chester reserves - and they don't seam to score enough - so we could well get a 1-1 draw in Wales - Rooney to score against his former team

 

[springerbfc]

A draw is probably the most likely outcome from our game but Halifax should rightly be extremely confident given the way they turned us over last Tuesday and their recent form.

This is the first of three consecutive home games for us. If we are still in danger after these three games, I think we are either going to see Mad Dog return, or be relegated. Or both.

 

[doveranddover]

Boreham Wood at Crabble - normally one we do badly in
might save myself for Halifax at home Saturday-make sure we're not outnumbered by the away fans!

 

[fifaking]

Barrow and Maidstone both at home this week.

6 points are a must to stay in the title race, or to at least ensure we remain well placed for 2nd/3rd play off spots.

Edit: just read Brad Walker is out for a few weeks, that's a huge blow for us

 

[Gatekeeper]

Sutton United v Braintree should be a home banker....

 

[BeeArmy]

Will be around 600 at the Dive on Tuesday

 

[Razzmachaz]

Hoping for a massive favour from a brother. You've picked up some decent results of late, so I remain hopeful

 

[springerbfc]

Yes, certainly likely to be an extremely low crowd. Will we get more than the 787 vs Farnborough in 2001?

Desperate times.

It's cute that you think we'll score.

 

[BarraMatt]

I didn't think Wrexham offered much up top in the reverse fixture and from the bits and pieces I saw of their game on Saturday.

I think we've got a decent chance of coming away with at least a point here. 1-1.

 

[chief]

Our only attacking outlets from midfield are Young and Wright, who will be forced to sit back with Walker out, unless we put one of our defenders into the midfield and none of our defenders are particularly good ball players. There's absolutely no way we're scoring unless we hoof it directly upwards and the wind takes it into the Barrow net. 0-0 written all over it.

 

[Master D]

Barrow always treat it as their Cup Final against us. They also think they’ve got some sort of ‘rivalry’ with us too.

We have to win seeing as Orient cannot possibly fail to win their walkover against Aldershot.

 

[Master D]

Sutton United v Braintree should be a home banker....

Not at this stage of the season with Sutton in danger of making the playoffs.

Yeah I think their fans are possibly the weirdest in the league that I've come across. Them or Dover.

Living in those places would probably drive me insane though.

 

[JaredSUFC]

‘Celebrating’ 25 years of supporting Sutton tomorrow by travelling across to watch us at home to the team bottom of the league fresh off a 4-0 home loss. 1-0 Braintree

 

[karlready]

1-0 Aldershot with George Elokobi scoring from a corner.............

We'll probably have to rest one or two as this is our 4th game in 10 days..............

I wish.....it's not gonna happen, however. One or two individuals excepted, we have assembled a team of losers. The Aldershot way was always to raise their game against decent sides, but not this shower, probably the most hang- dog shots team I have seen. I'd love to be wrong, but it's gotta be 3 or 4 to Orient ,maybe 1 to the shots( George Elokobi corner...)

Rest 6 or 7, you will still win. It just wont be by as much as with your strongest team

 

[Luke Imp]

How's Mensah done for you lot?

 

[Shotsfan1993]

How's Mensah done for you lot?

Scored 2 in 2, then got injured and despite not seeming at 100% in his last 2 games is still a threat. One of the players giving everything for us

 

[Farleigh]

So who is getting rained off? Obviously not Bromley.

 

[JaredSUFC]

Or Sutton

Kennedy in place of Walker. He's pretty good on the ball. Keep Wright and Young further forward for this game.

 

[Farleigh]

Eastleigh pitch inspection at 4pm.

[Luke Imp]

When Eastleigh were required to 'cut their cloth', I didn't think it'd go all the way down to their pitch covers, too.

 

[doveranddover]

absolutely sheeting down & gales in east kent.
if its rained like that in eastleigh their game won't be on
due to clear soon so the BW fans can get in their car & travel down
