Be some turn around if Halifax v Oldham goes ahead tomorrow, it’s as bad there as here weather wise
I'm not sure how Halifax are going to complete their home games TBH.
The rugby fixture played there this week in driving rain and large puddles appeared to remove what was left of the top surface. Due to play at the shay tomorrow, Saturday and Tuesday. They've ended up with the headache many thought we'd have back in February. Be interesting how it pans out for them.

We're just looking at Solihull and Halifax now really in my opinion.

Interestingly, Solihull and Halifax are both stronger away than they are at home - so perhaps not all is lost by slipping back to 6th - but 5th has got to be the goal.

Slipping back to 7th and heading up to Gateshead would be a disaster.
The only solice I can muster for ending up with Gateshead away is that they have five games to play by a week on Saturday whilst we have just the two. I'd rather avoid them but they could be exhausted. We did win there this season too but I wouldn't be too bullish about repeating the dose.We all know Alty. Convincing win at Ebbsfleet then Oxford grab a last minute winner at the JDS. Lots of twists and turns to come I'm sure.🤞🤞

I see Gateshead beating Aldershot as critical to us simply because it rubber stamps our participation in the play offs. Our last two matches determine our position in the play off pecking order.

Surely we've got to want to push for a home game? - whether we like it or not, other results elsewhere will play a part in that - starting tomorrow at Solihull.
I fully concur MA. We aim for two wins to end our campaign. Any help by our competitors slipping up greatly appreciated. COYR. We can get another sell out after the Oxford game. I want another wrist band! 😁

I particularly enjoyed the 1, 2 repeated sound checks. Bring back the threats if you walk in front of the press box. Really miss that one.

Manager sacked ... but will stay till the end of the season (!)
This could only happen in real life football or very poorly written fiction. 😂😂😂

I reckon after yesterday's results, one more point will see us secure a playoff slot or six more would make it top five. Nine points could even see us squeak third.
Top five is realistic as is 3 wins. Top three relying on Bromley experiencing more misadventures.

I do think it's going to be updated each time I open it. 😂

Would the heat lamps accelerate growth or would the cost be prohibitive?

Be very difficult to look either in the eye and say you're not out best player. More so with Ethan as he's too tall.
Good tie breaker as mentioned is whose going to be with us longer.

No. It wasn't me! My son in law dropped me at the away end as parking was poor. I managed to toddle to the bar under the away seating without much trouble and was even more intoxicated by our second half performance!
Site still wonky but I've managed to get this message done!
Onwards to Monday... and the play offs! 😉
In that case SR I avoided going back to hold a very confusing conversation with a extremely bemused gent with a white goatee and walking cane.😁

Great win and a huge well done to those fans who travelled to Aggborough. Roll on Monday. We're scoring goals for fun atm and Oldham look like they're on freefall - what could possibly go wrong!!!  :o
I could start an extensive list.😱

The site's gone wonky and old school on me so I won't be able to post further.
Setting off for Aggborough now. Come on you Supers 👍 🇦🇹
Two questions.
Well, if the answers no to the first one you won't see either.

(1) Have you managed to dewonk the site?
(2) As I drove past the chippy to park up at the station I saw a distinguished
     looking gent sat outside at the table and chairs matching your description.

     If it was you is there a prize I can claim? 😁

I'll be stood on the south stand terrace to witness our first win in ten visits spread over twenty years.
I'm using the law of averages and the fact we are the better team with the greater will to prevail.
