It’s not just a question of whether they are under contract it’s about what the club and player are offered by EFL teams. I would be amazed if lost anyone we want to keep to another national league team after the season we’ve had. Mooney’s experience will teach them the grass isn’t always greener. Lundstram didn’t seem to fair much better at Oldham.

But if a league one team came in for them ……

The loss of Marriott told in the end. Recruiting quality that can fight for those places where we don’t have cover and potentially take those places will be crucial. As well as keeping the clear first XI

But we are a playoff club now. No-one to fear in the league next year. If we can keep the team together they’ve shown anything is possible. And they are a young team. The glass may not be overflowing but it’s way more than half full!

If this situation arose again next season the team in our position could have thrown the last game of the season to finish 5th rather than 4th and get the bye. Imagine if the team we were playing needed a point to avoid the drop. I assume that’s why they didn’t announce this until yesterday. They must have known for some time.

Farcical way to run a league.

We do seem to find an incredible number of different bureaucratic ways of not going up from this league!

Chances are will need to beat both Bromley and Barnet, one at their place and one at Wembley. Home advantage possibly bigger for Bromley so go to Barnet and take Bromley in the final?

 It shouting at Dorking is not encouraged. There was a sign at the front of the seating area asking us to be considerate of their neighbours and “keep noise to a minimum”😂

The most tedious game I’ve seen for a long time. Every time we got the ball they tackled with their arms first, so many pull backs on and off the ball. As a result we couldn’t build any sort of an attack.  It’s the first time I’ve seen the ref call the guy over for a chat point to lots of parts of the pitch and then not book the guy either then or for any of the next three fouls he commits. He was a disgrace and the only surprise was it took so long for one of ours to bite. (Although Kossy did have a couple of little niggly kicks at him)

5 1/2 hours in the car to watch us win some free kicks.  Very frustrated at that referee performance. A few bookings early doors (including osbourne to be fair) would have stamped out some on the cynical fouls and allowed a game of football to breakout.

Avoiding defeat tonight means no team can do the double over us in the league this season. When was the last time we managed that? (At this level)

I’d seen James Jones shoulder injury meant he was out for the season. I think was in a Flynny audio interview somewhere and I think in the interview the physios did with AltyTV a while back. There wasn’t an announcement as such but certainly not the first time it’s been mentioned publicly
