[The Terminator]

Barrow v Ebbsfleet

[The Terminator]

Key fixtures everywhere despite some being off due to the trophy.

If Wrexham can win then I can't really see us catching them - particularly if we beat Brackley and end up in the Semi finals of the Trophy, because we will then have to play Saturday-Tuesday all the way through March and April.

I think that will be too much for us, we have a big enough squad but we don't really have the quality in our consistency levels to win all our games in hand over such a short space of time - common problem at this level, players are non league for a reason. We had to win last weekend and I have to say, we did bottle it one or two of our players aren't coping with the pressure. Wrexhams to lose this weekend.

Wrexham won’t win the league.
They will be reffed/weathered/fixtured out of it
They never win their game in hand
They never win after being top on 22nd February

Without looking at the fixtures left I think L/Orient will win the league

 

[Chief Rocka]

Pools v Bromley in the battle for the coveted 13th spot in the league, Hignett has got us playing some decent football these past few weeks, we're pretty much average at home, we have no problem scoring but also no problem conceding, Bromley don't look like great travellers, fancy us to win this.

 

[doveranddover]

Be happy with a draw for Dover Saturday. Maidenhead in form and Braintree at home next week 4 pts from 6 will be good

We just won our game in hand and the ref missed a foul during our first goal. Unreal scenes are unfurling.

 

[Master D]

The final attempt of the National League’s brazen fixturing-out campaign against us then.

 

[fifaking]

Going to be tough not to get a bit giddy if we win this one..

Our last four fixtures are games we really would have been expecting to win, Boreham Wood away on Tuesday being the toughest of them (who are in freefall). Much bigger test tomorrow!

 

[Soup Ladle]

Heed will be a tough game though. They are are having an incredible season all considered. We need to be raiding them for 2 or 3 players next year.

As for us, it's massively important to finish 13th. I expect the lads to be bang up for it.

 

[Tin Roofs & Stone Steps]

We’ve lost 1 in the last 8 league games. We are much more resolute in defence and have a striker that has scored 11 in 12 games. Currently floating in obscurity purely down to our awful start.
I fancy us to score a couple and hopefully our defence does it’s job again, they’ve been brilliant in recent weeks.
Expect a tough game after a long trip but don’t think 3 points is an unrealistic hope.

 

[John Still]

Do we ever beat Sutton? Doubt we will tomorrow if I’m honest. Roll on end of April.

 

[JaredSUFC]

Do we ever beat Sutton? Doubt we will tomorrow if I’m honest. Roll on end of April.

Currently racking my brain trying to remember the last time we lost to you. Maybe 1997?

Tomorrow has 0-0 written all over it. Can’t wait

 

[John Still]

Sounds about right when we we’re relegated to the Istmian last time, barely played each other since then until we came back down here.

Taylor loves to set up defensively, not scored in out last two games.

 

[Red-Hybrid]

I would be perfectly happy with a draw tomorrow. Gateshead will be a tough challenge, especially if we don't get any players back. Seven points from the three away games will be fantastic.

Though I will be delighted if we win and Eastleigh basically end Salford's title challenge.

 

[Gandalf the Grey]

There's a chance for Salford to fall out of the playoff positions if scores go the right way.

 

[Master D]

The National League will arrange for them to be reffed up, don’t you worry about that.

 

[GTFCfish]

All Eastleigh aren’t we?

 

[doveranddover]

Wondering why I made the effort of going to Maidenhead. We have been awful so far

 

[Raymondo316]

WTF has happened to Salford they have proper imploded in the last 10 games.

 

[Chief Rocka]

What an awful set of officials we’ve got today, weak as piss, think he joined in the Bromley celebrations at one point, our lad gets booked after one tackle, Omar Trumpet is on his 5th and not seen a card yet.

Been second best mind, Bromley have a good mix of decent play and shithousery.

 

[Fyldefan]

I think Alexander will be sacked by the end of this weekend

 

[Master D]

Yessss, that is a huge goal for our confidence and belief now.

Stockton equaliser at the death. 7 points from 9 after the WEEK FROM HELL.

Admin, can we move this post to the tinpot thread please?

 

[Master D]

Someone's still touchy over that cheese incident..

You're a bit odd aren't you?

 

[Chief Rocka]

I don’t think I’ll ever see a more terrible display of reffing so long as we exist in this dump league, putrid, he should be arrested.

Bromley played well and deserved the win, scored a beauty of a second goal, did their fair share of rolling around ‘injured’ in the second half but these smaller clubs do tend to do that when leading away at bigger teams, always happens, good luck to them, late playoff push perhaps.

 

[spireite]

Well, there's still plenty of work to do for Sheridan that's for sure. That was shit today

 

[doveranddover]

We were really bad today,lucky to get none, as people used to say

Bromley are the worst team by far for rolling around faking injuries

 

[Raymondo316]

Signs of a revival from Aldershot or was it just that you were playing Braintree??

Bromley were a pack of twats,aided by a little twat in black.
That said,they were also fitter,faster,stronger & should have won by more.
Completely embarrassed our set of no mark plodders.
