We were terrific today. Only one team in it and 4-0 reflects the balance of play.

Every outfield player was excellent! If we can keep key players fit for the remainder of the season, the play-offs beckon…

My dad summed it up pretty well; 4-0 flattered Eastleigh. If we could finish, we'd be lethal.

That was a VERY convincing win! Could have been even more emphatic actually.
I've really got to fight the urge and not to get carried away (I'm sure others feel the same!) but if this best (outfield) side can keep fit ... who knows where we can finish!
Come on you Supers indeed! 😉

We justified the flattering remarks Chesterfield gave us. I expect Parky will keep the players feet on the ground. Not sure I can. It's getting more and more difficult not to get carried away. We looked like a league side today. Other results went out way and over 2K home fans was another encouraging plus.

Whisper it quietly, but we're 9 behind Barnet with 2 games in hand, and we're 12 behind Bromley with 3 in hand.

Still very tight below us though, let's hope we don't lose focus...

Feet firmly on the ground but I’d start looking at Wembley hotels for the playoff final date… We are getting better with each game and can’t see where our next loss will come from! BELIEVE!

Finishing third is not beyond us. Home semi, then Wembley and Bob's your uncle! 😉

There. I've said it!

We were very good today.

Literally blew them away, they couldn’t deal with our tempo and waves of attacks.

Top team performance.

Linney deserved the MOTM. He has been immense in the last two games and seems back to full match fitness. Different animal with him up top.

Need to be keeping Newby, so consistent.

All eleven hit good marks today. The sharpest I have seen them so far. The lads are very fit now, and using Eddie Jones to play left back but also in midfield was a very good plan. We smothered Eastleigh who I expected to give us a tough test today, but the Alty lads made them look very ordinary.

Well done lads.

PS. I’m not sure that letting kids play on the pitch at half time is good for the pitch.. Just a thought.

It is certainly not beyond us, but we'd need pretty much everyone to remain fit and that seems unlikely. I wonder if the arrangement with Man U still stands?

Very impressive today and totally deserved win, as mentioned above we smothered Eastleigh from possession and then passed them off the pitch. An excellent team performance from all, including Matt Gould who hasn't played much but made a couple of decent saves and did exactly what was need when called upon. All outfield players superb and Regan Linney deserved mom, great credit to Parky, Sorvs and the lads for an overall superb performance. 8)

What arrangement is that?
