No pre-match from Hurst so Hanson might be fit, or not. Williams was ill and no news about Hab so I wonder what the team will be?

I think it may be the Saturday line up with a fit Hab's replacing Stokes, with Stokes and Hanson on the bench with Saturday's other 4 subs and Eastwood.

Whatever the team we need the win desperately, a draw is not good enough. That said I don't think many of us had Town down for a win after Oldham scored first with them being the league's top scorers. The team must be in a positive mood following the victory and full of optimism.  

Exeter haven't scored in a few games so the pressure will be on them, the home team to maintain some sort of promotion push. Hopefully, this will leave gaps at the back for us to score.

Definite Town win and staying up.

Who the hell is Stokes unless it’s Ben Stokes signed on Q/T but hang on we’re not playing cricket

As long as you don’t go over tonight and interrupt their card games. We don’t want to wake up to stories about Clifton’s bridge suspension.


Can we put this man in charge of GTFC PR next season, please?

I don't know if there was ever a plan to stop in Bristol but I do know that the coach broke down on the way yesterday, incurring a 2 hour delay.

Is there no end to the clusterf*ck that this football club has become?

The only way that a defeat would NOT relegate us tonight was if Barrow were to lose 20-0 at FGR. However a draw for us and a defeat for Barrow would prolong the agony (or keep the hope) whichever way you want to look at it, for another game.

Come on now...

FGR on an unbeaten run (alright 3 games...), Barrow on a losing streak.

Exeter struggling to keep in touch with the play offs as a result of a run that does not scream 'promotion' and not scoring goals. Town off the back of a belting win and would have been one loss in 5 if we didn't employ d*ckheads as players.

You know what that means.......a Barrow win and we get hammered by a free scoring Exeter. Enjoy.

Not necessarily. Barrow could save that 20-0 defeat for the last day of the season if they wanted to, however regardless I remain of the opinion its nine points or down since I can't see Barrow failing to take a point from one of Southend at home or Exeter away. We need to win.

On the plus side, that does take some ambiguity out of the occasion - no worrying whether we stick or twist, it's twist all the way.

There's a joke in there somewhere but I can't think of one
