[The Terminator]

Dress rehearsal for the FA Trophy Final................Maybe more.

We had to fight with ten men for 70mins on Saturday, so a few might be feeling the affects of it.

Matt Harrold is banned for 3 games, Jay Simpson should be good to step in for him. We won't have a recognised striker on the bench.

Fylde draw alot away from home, a draw here for us will not be a disaster.

If Solihull cannot beat an out of form Boreham Wood then I will eat my own pants.

 

[The Terminator]

Havant and Aldershot have basically got to win.

 

[Fyldefan]

Huge game for both of us. Away from home we've been pretty poor this season and I think we have to finish 2nd or 3rd to have a realistic chance of going up in the playoffs. If we were to win, well, I dont even want to think about it. I think it'll be a draw though

 

[springerbfc]

Huge game at Orient.

A win for Orient and that should be the title for them. A win for Fylde brings them right into the title mix. A draw keeps Solihull, Wrexham and Salford in touch.

As for us, we're 4 unbeaten, and 4 unbeaten at home. Perhaps we've turned the corner? I guess we'll find out, as this is a game we should be looking to win.

 

[East Bank Shot]

The last I heard, Barnet were absolute dead certs for relegation despite having 17 games in hand.
We simply have to win.

I'm saying nothing!

Hope Aldershot can make the end of season interesting, two teams in the relegation zone chasing down the three or four floundering just above, nothing quite like relegation tension when your not the one involved.

Barnet are already mathematically relegated, you'll never get a better chance of 3 points.

 

[springerbfc]

Woah, didn't you read the forum rules? Pi$$ taking is only permitted against fans of all clubs other than Barnet. I'm telling. And I'm never coming back. Ever.

Must win for Barnet. It’s curtains otherwise.

 

[chipmunx]

whilst I really want Boreham Wood to go down i'll now be hoping they scrape a 0-0 draw somehow...

 

[karlready]

Shots have to go for it, shit or bust. Difficult to call this one; decent team performance at Borehamwood on Saturday ,but the opposition were pathetic. They should be up for this, but they have been underperforming all season. No excuses now.


every shots player

Huge game at Orient.

A win for Orient and that should be the title for them. A win for Fylde brings them right into the title mix. A draw keeps Solihull, Wrexham and Salford in touch.

Orient have about a million games in hand, we are not in touch. Clinging onto 3rd should be our target now.

You’re literally one point behind us and we have the toughest run-in of any side in the top 7. Sure, we’re favourites at the moment, but if we slip up on Tuesday the pressure on us is going to be immense. In all likelihood we’ll need to win 6 of our last 9 games, which is eminently plausible, but by no means a given (derbies and plastic pitches galore).

That being said, I’m more concerned about the other three sides in the mix rather than Wrexham. I’d take a point tomorrow if it was offered, just to keep Fylde fully at arm’s length.

 

[Master D]

We have to finish top 3 to have a remote chance in the playoffs. That is accepted by our entire fanbase I'd say.

We could shithouse a 1-0 at home if our defence is on top form but anything away from home we would lose without scoring. Wembley anything could happen but fuck me we are seriously not good enough to get there, so don't even know why I'm mentioning the place.

I'll be glad when we lose 2-0 away to Fylde in the SF and we can get on with our lives in peace.

I dont know how but its happened again. The same as last season. I dont know if the defense work their backsides off all season and by March they realise the strikers cant hit a barn yard door with a banjo and give up. Goalless draws turn into losses and then the home form even crumbles a bit.

We seriously need something from the Ebbsfleet game to stop a bit of rot from setting in. If we can 0-0 away and 1-0 at home that will do.

 

[Joe.]

I quite like the look of our run in, although tonight will be far from easy. Hopefully we can get the win to enter the play offs, albeit having played a game more.

 

[doveranddover]

1-0 Dover - puts us 2 places up the table - blow all the final whistles now
bloody hell 2-0 don't think we've won there this century

 

[Master D]

Great to see Orient doing the Brotherly thing and continuing to help us even after clinching the title.

 

[springerbfc]

Sounds like a classic at THL

 

[slaphead]

It is shite. Two shite sides with zero end product, going to be 0-0 or a shite set piece will win it. Shite.

 

[rudebwoyben]

That was a weak first half from us. We’re making the Shots look like England yesterday. Relegation is now back on!

 

[E10rifle]

Haha. Fylde are - ha ha wait for it - they’re - hahaha - trying to play football with us. Hahaha! Idiots.
