Southport Away?

Quoted from big al

I live in Merseyside so am really hoping we are crowned at this game. I also believe there is a good chance it will be this game if B & B don't mess up big style beforehand.

So you think we'll get 5 points more than Barnet and 4 more than Bristol in the next 3 games without them messing up big time in that time?! Seriously?!

Like Rodders said, Gateshead first, then Alfreton. One game at a time! We're on a great run and in a good position, I personally believe we can do it. But it is not a formality, there are 450 minutes of football to be played and anything can happen. The way some people are going on it is going to seriously bite them on the bottom potentially.

If we win our next 4 games  barnet would have to drop 5 points and Rovers would have to drop 4 points. So whilst it is certainly possible I would say it is unlikely.
However if we are top going into that game there is always the possibility of clinching the title at Southport, if that's the case can you risk not going?

Chap here at work that I often chat with about our league is a Southport fan.. so really going to try and make the effort to get up to this one! They might be tough as they have something to fight for, and are unbeaten in quite a few games now! Hoping by the time we play them, they're safe and not playing for anything..

Mariner 91 - the reason for 'getting ahead of myself' is reasonably clearly stated up the top there..

Don't think that has to happen. If we win the next three games - which I believe we will then we're on 87 points. If Barnet and Rovers both get 6 points out of the next three (or maybe 5 as they both have done in their last three games) then we would be in a position where we could win it at Southport. Didn't say 'will' win it. Said good chance - that's all I said. Didn't say 'formality' or anything like that. Also didn't say we will win it by the time we get to Southport as you are suggesting I did. Nothing is going to bite me on the ar*e because if we don't win it then I believe we will win the play offs. If we don't win the play offs then I will return next year with hope in my heart that we will do it next time.

Their ground holds 6008 and their average attendance is just over 1000 total. I hope we are in a position to take enough fans to fill it for them, however, I hope we can fill BP first on Saturday. UTM

I can't see anyone confirmed as Champions until the final day of the season.

One set of games at a time.

If we draw Saturday, but Rovers & Barnet both loose then it's a good point, & not the disaster if they both win.

All to play for, as fans just take it one game at a time & not get ahead of ourselves.

Quoted from Rodley Mariner

Ridiculous isn't it? We're not even favourites yet some people are talking like it's a formality. Gateshead first, forget the rest until then.

think rodley is right. after all,we are like a lower league man city; i.e. if there's a chance of fooking up then we'll manage to find it!

I sincerely hope the players have their feet a lot firmer on the ground than some on here jeez.

ONE GAME AT A TIME, Gateshead first up not worth even considering Alfreton let alone Southend, we still have a hell of a lot to do first and even then hope the two teams either side of us slip up.
