Match Day National League Fixtures10-11/03/2018

[Boz]

Saturday 10th March:
Bromley v Guiseley
Dagenham v Tranmere
Eastleigh v Dover
Fylde v Aldershot
Gateshead v Maidenhead
Hartlepool v Boreham Wood
Leyton Orient v Ebbsfleet
Macclesfield v Barrow
Maidstone v Torquay
Sutton v Solihull
Woking v Halifax

Sunday 11th March:
Wrexham v Chester

Rovers travel to Dagenham needing a win against an opponent who've got rid off some of their better players due to financial woes, but still capable of being an awkward opponent. Norburn is banned,but apart from the long-term absentees,the manager should otherwise have a full squad to chose from.

Stand-out fixture at the top end of the table is the Shots trip to Fylde, where I'm hoping for a home win. Aside from Dover,with a tricky trip to Eastleigh,expect the other promotion contenders to win, though there might be something unexpected in the Welsh derby, as derbies are often unpredictable,throwing out the form-book.

The games at Maidstone and Woking will have a bearing on who drops out of the league. Going for a draw at Maidstone,but unsure what will happen at Woking.

 

[Tranmerewhite]

Absolute banana skin game for us. They have nothing to lose whereas we need to win to keep our tiny title hopes alive and solidify a playoff position.

Making my first ever visit to Dagenham on Saturday.

Anyone got any tips on the quickest route to get there from central London by train/tube? Thanks.

Lucky you. What a treat you have in store.

You’re heading for Dagenham East tube. Quickest route will be Central Line to Mile End, then District Line which will be on the adjacent platform.

You're lucky you're there in March, gives you all season to save up for the £21 admission.

We welcome back Daryl "Quiche" McMahon back to Brisbane Road for the first time since 2007. To think he is the same age as me, was part of our 2006 promotion winning squad and is now a manager - Can't get my head round it at all.

We will 100% lose this. Our on pitch performances have been fine in the main, we was very unlucky to lose at Dover last week, but we've been far too casual against Gateshead twice in ten days though.

It is also Donut day as well

 

[Bluandwite]

Can’t wait for us to do our new trick again on Sunday of looking better and raising hopes all to be dashed by conceding one of the daftest goals you’ll ever witness.

That sounds awfully like watching Maidstone.

 

[Chief Rocka]

I can't wait to watch us getting a jolly good buggering by Boreham Wood in front of 10 away fans.

It's what non league is all about

Thanks for that, I am now thinking Fenchurch st to Barking, then tube to Daggers east.

 

[Silver Stone]

We're 17 (18? I don't even know anymore) games without a win, but we always beat Torquay. Irresistible force vs the immovable object on Saturday then.

Mornington Crescent.

 

[John Still]

Tranmere should really wipe the floor with us. Although we have picked up a little we've only really managed to beat two really crap sides in Chester and Torquay. Stop Fejiri and you'll win. How many you brining? Need all the money we can and at £21 a pop it's a decent little earner.

Love how people get annoyed at the price of our away end there is no better facility in this league and when it's £2-3 extra for some shocking terraces and zero facilities. Yes it's expensive for this league but not so when you compare to price/facilities of most away ends. Ours fans will not be sharing that end for this game.

Looking forward to it. I think we'll lose, but happy to be proved wrong.

Hopefully take a respectable number. Only 20 minutes down the road.

 

[The_Boss]

I'd say the away end at Prenton Park better. Cheaper to start with and then the likes of Beavertown and Fruli in the fridge instead of £4.50 for warm Carling or Worthington's I think it was at your place this season.

 

[Mark kavanagh]

Mornington Crescent.

haha love it mate

 

[Reremnart]

I would be amazed if they had that many. They really are the most Mickie Mouse club in this League supporter wise. We play them down there next week and I expect our fans to out number them at their own ground again. The big question is if they got to Wembley in the Play Off Final would they take a coach load instead of their normal minibus ? If they do manage to get into the FL I can`t wait to see how they get on with the FFP rules.

 

[The_Boss]

Didn't realise Barrow's away form was as strong as it is, 6 wins and a draw from last 8 away games. Coupled with our inability to break down sides at home I'm not overly confident again!

When do Sutton play anyone remotely decent?

 

[John Still]

It's £4 and never warm, drink in the same bar every home game. I would too say Tranmere is probably the best from all the ones I have visited.

 

[Ronaldo to Wrexham]

Nailed on draw. Both teams need to win and a draw will help no one ...but we specialise in draws.. not fussy against who we draw against either.

I had a pint of each cos the first one was so shit.

And we lost so that automatically makes it 100 times worse.

 

[Shotsfan1993]

Fylde have hit Macclesfield for 6 and Tranmere for 5 since the start of the year - this is definitely a game that worries me.

Normally i'd say take a point now, but we've drawn too many already so think we need a win.

 

[GuiseleySteve]

We've just played Sutton and we're about as remote from decent as you can get

They brought 166 to us in early Jan and we're their closest game of the season, most of them were Watford fans on a jolly boys day out.

 

[Seventyseven]

*cough* not true.... we actually beat you once back in 1989

 

[Joe.]

Please beat them again.

 

[GTFCfish]

It's what non league is all about

I think you are seriously overestimating Boreham Woods away support.

 

[Silver Stone]

*cough* not true.... we actually beat you once back in 1989

Close enough I suspect you'll both be happy this time tomorrow.

 

[B2TF]

We really do have more in common than we sometimes acknowledge. You're our doppelgangers.

 

[doveranddover]

Eastleigh v Dover P-P
At least it’s not too far away
Spennymoor off too- yes really
