Re: [ Tue 25th Apr ] v Witton Albion, KO 7:45pm NPL1S POSF AWAY
No one will give us a chance and we go into this as massive underdogs - just like against Royston last year and remember what happened there? Probably the best performance of the season!
Anything can happen now! The weight of expectation (for a change) shifts to the opposition. Witton are in my opinion the best team I have seen this year! Runners up, clear of us by 25 points, beaten us twice this year and second best supported side in the league who will really get behind them! The odds are stacked against us.
The first three things don't matter now! It's a one off !! We start level !!
Our lads can go out and play with no fear - they have a big performance in them and do have the ability to win this game.
It's a long way for a Tuesday - but I hope we travel in numbers and get behind them. It could be one of those "I was there" evenings!
I just want to see a performance - if we go down fighting and having given it our best shot so be it. But please let's not go out with a whimper! If the players read this I say "believe"!! Don't leave an ounce on that pitch and come off it no matter what the result with no regrets !!
I can't wait !! My car of 5 leaves Rushden at 4pm!!! I hope to see a few other scarfs flying the red, white and blue up the M6 !!!

According to the Witton Forum there will be segregation in place 
Lets just use this to create an even better atmosphere if we're all behind one goal for the whole game.

I see they did free entry on Saturday and still only pulled in 345 (making a season's average of 298) so I'd expect a similar crowd on Tuesday - unless local interest is really pricked or ground hoppers choose it to attend.
If segregation is in place (and I've seen nothing to suggest it officially yet) then that's daft - but I guess they might be thinking feelings will be running high and these kind of games are the type that attract the more moronic hanger on!! We'll see I guess - one more sleep eh?
A whole season's work and effort resting on one game - a lot of pressure for both sides eh? Who will handle it the best?
I love the playoffs - great way to go up - but as we found last year, a cruel way to stay down!
