National League play-offs

[chipmunx]

Fully deserved second goal

the Barnet player knew absolutely nothing about it either....

 

[Urban]

I'm sorry Barnet but you've used up all your luck for the next ten years.

We don’t often have it! Sorry guys.

 

[MrGloverLover]

handball again for the 2nd goal.

 

[rudebwoyben]

Farcical performance. We are due some play off luck in fairness. Sorry Yeovil.

That is true, Blackpool 92 and Colchester 98 still rankle.

 

[rudebwoyben]

I’d hate/love to see the match stats for this.

I’d hate/love to see the match stats for this.

Here they are:

Yeovil 0 Barnet 2

The ONLY stats that count.

It’s happening, the spawniest promotion ever.

Harrogate are the only team you need to worry about.

Most of the shots on our goal were from our own players!

 

[MrGloverLover]

What a ridiculous result. Absolutely absurd.

 

[Brox]

Why have BT decided that the correct 3 letter abbreviation for Barnet is BAT?

 

[B2TF]

What a ridiculous result. Absolutely absurd.

Why? Barnet defended magnificently. Worthy winners.

 

[rudebwoyben]

What a ridiculous result. Absolutely absurd.

Commiserations Yeovil, I’m pretty sure if this match was played another 10 times like this you’d win them all. What can I say, that 2nd half was totally ridiculous.

 

[Ban Fat Stan]

Brilliant away performance. Fully deserved. Yeovil all fart and no poo.

 

[MrGloverLover]

I'm putting money on the Bees

I'm hurting but genuine best of luck to Barnet. Not that you need any more...

Fourth game on TV this season and fourth defeat. For all the near misses Loach didnt make a good save for 95 minutes and the closest we came was Barnet defenders hitting woodwork when attempting clearances. Best of luck to Barnet against Notts County but like MrGloverLover says I'd be amazed if you have any more luck left!

 

[#Beebot]

Huge amount of fortune there for us but our forward line is our biggest strength and if our defence can hold out, we're really dangerous on the counter.

An even tougher task next week against a team with more cutting edge than Yeovil, but we CAN do it again.

Thought he made a good save from the shot which your players said was over the line (but clearly wasn't).

We’re weird in that sense - we look like we should be susceptible at the back but actually had the best defence in the league, and don’t score as many as we should with the attacking players we’ve got.

Having a competitive game should help you too, although we’ve got ridiculous attacking strength in depth really and five subs to work with. I wouldn’t be surprised if Ardley goes with a surprising team selection for the first hour.

 

[springerbfc]

We can’t play as badly next week, those 90 minutes in the bank will certainly help us and with McCallum we have a real goal threat. We should go to Notts full of confidence.

It would be typical Barnet to get to Wembley for the first time in my lifetime when I’m not allowed to go!

You played about 9 games. Bound to have the best defence in the league.

Refusing to play games has worked out for Barnet. We should have tried it

 

[TheEndIsNigh]

Didn’t see the game, but thought Barnet would win.

They're so obviously going up, I might put a cheeky tenner on it. Thereby jinxing em.

 

[Like a Glove]

Well that 2nd half was a joke, created enough chances to win a few games.

Move onto next season, most of the core of the squad are under contract and we should be up there challenging again. What happens now though? Do we put everyone back on furlough?

I support Notts, so I’m definitely not having you moan about postpones games.

Ha ha apologies.

Yeovil played well, be first or second next season I think. Think Harrogate will go up this time. I also thought us and Wrexham would be top 3 though so shows what I know

 

[Aeneas]

I thought it was more of a bad miss than a good save but I'll concede the point. Simply put, we didn't deserve to win as we were so profligate in front of goal. With 4 months off it was never likely we were going to have much of a cutting edge and we've looked pretty short of ideas since James Tilley was recalled to Brighton and Lawson D'ath got injured in the first week of January if I'm being brutally honest.

 

[Bee sting]

Respect to Yeovil... Totally outplayed us but we did what we had to do.

 

[Optipez]

Only watched the second half but thought Barnet looked sharp breaking and Yeovil looked ponderous and huffed and puffed without really looking menacing. Having said that Yeovil had their chances to equalise and Barnets second was handball.
Not feeling at all confident of beating Barnet next Saturday.

These games are so weird and they’ve gone so long without playing that it’s a bit of a lottery what happens. Hope we win it of course, but even now it’s close I can’t say that it feels like a play-off campaign should.
