Nah, he had bet on that Wrexham would score in both halves. ;)

Good results for us tonight. Mansfield lose and York only get a point.

Makes it very very interesting.

Points on the board or games in hand though, the old chestnut, which one would you prefer?

Remember we have to play Oxford and the scum twice, I can see a return of 8 points from those four games max.

A win on Saturday though and it will give the team a massive boost, if we jump into the playoff zone.

What we need though is EVERYBODY to get behind the team now, get people down the ground!

This could be our year!

Well, you'd want the points on the board, but it's a good motivator to know what you need to do in advance.

Should be an interesting fight. Both Mansfield and Wimbledon have to play each other again,Stevenage, Oxford away and ourselves. In addition, they've both got to visit Cambridge. On the whole, probably quite balanced between the three of us in terms of fixtures.

Its going to be a good fight.

Regardless of whether we make the playoffs in the end, I'm just thankful that we actually have something to aim for this season.


Nothing worse than playing from January on with nothing to play for.

Whether we make it or not, we know that we should be in for some good entertainment, and come the end of the season we should be there or thereabouts.

As mentioned, if we can get a win at the weekend and results can go for us, i think once we get into the play off zone, it will be harder for teams to remove us. I just hope we can make that move. I dont think i remember us getting into the play off zone for ages, and whenever we get a chance we always seem to blow it.

Ha that reminded me of when we played Wrexham the other week, when Mangan had a shot, someone behind shouted "that was worth a gamble" at the top of his voice!! Think Mangan heard it as well!!! :lol:
