I have seen quite a lot of people tipping us to win it based on our second half of the season and the cup runs - I get the logic , but not sure that I like it . I prefer the total underdog tag , saying that I'm so much more relaxed this time than the last play-off run .

That’ll change. It hasn’t started yet. I’ve got a feeling Sunday will be one of those games you can’t wait to end and never feels as though it will.

Yep, it’s going to be nervy for sure. As much as the drama and pandemonium of our last play-off campaign is fantastic to look back on, I genuinely felt like I was dying at Wrexham - I would be eternally grateful if we could be 3-0 up and playing against 9-men inside 30 minutes of every game.

Won’t happen, of course. I have a weird gut feeling that, what with penalties being such a big talking point throughout this season, we’re going to have to face a penalty shootout somewhere along the way. I certainly wouldn’t want to make a hat trick of Town penalty defeats at Wembley.

No need to worry Poojah we'll be at least seven goals to the good by the time we kick off at Salford.  You heard it here first.  Signed DJT!

I was dying the next day after the Notts County one i know that ,ended up going to the local sports bar and getting absolutely battered with it going right through to extra - time.  I think they probably put 2 + 2  together at work the next day when I was off with an 'extreme tummy ache ' .

At least if we do make it , it won't  be at that athletics track again .

Day after County my work colleague from Nottingham was concerned that he would get a knock at the door and a football banning order for buying tickets in the home end for Grimsby Cole snorting hooligans...

Going through the play offs is as painful as using a Christmas tree wrapped in barbed wire as a pull through when you are constipated, but the euphoria of winning and getting promoted is a feeling that can't be matched.


Supporting the Mighty Mariners for over 30 years, home town club is were the heart and soul is and it's great to be a part of it.
