Have you seen their home form Vicar ?

http://www.braintreetownfc.org.uk/results.html

Beaten Dover, Bristol Rovers (4th), Kiddy(9th)
Drawn with Barnet, Halifax and today Woking(5th)
Before that lost to Southport (ironic !)
Not sure what to read into their recent FACup 5-3 win v Weymouth...  

I see your point of course, champions should win at Braintree.
And at a guess, think we will too.
Just there's no guarantees in any game of football, let alone in this league.

If we are serious, we win at Braintree, it isn't AC Milan, it's Braintree. Simple as that.

Fair enough then Vicar, each to their own.

Aye, you're a good lad but I stand by it. No more retreat, we push on and we flipping well win at BrainbastardTree!

It's about time I agree !  
No doubt momentum is important.

For me a draw wouldn't be disaster but doubt anyone (including Hurst) would take a point if they were offered it now.

Personally I think we will have too much for Braintree however we need to ENSURE we actually turn up and want to win after all we owe them one and our record their is somewhat crap.

And we are Grimsby Town . A well established Conference Team .............................................. Braintree away is a tricky game for anyone in this league

If we win Tuesday we will be sitting 2nd in the league - hopefully this is a great incentive for the players to go there and beat them.

Quoted from Jarmo.Is.God

i think it was obvious why we was calling for his head at the time, but he has proved what he and this team can do, so i don't think we was wrong to call for his head, but it shows Fenty got it right in standing by .

anyway, no negativity, well done Paul, well deserved

So you were wrong but actually you were right?

After a few bad results hysterically bleating for the manager to be sacked is not the right thing to do.

Completely agree with the Vicar on both the stats and winning at Braintree. If we are to be contenders we must win an incredible percentage of our remaining games - if Barnet keep racking up the points* at the present rate they'll finish on around 102 points. To equal that we'd need another 72 points from 28 games or an average of 2.6 points a game. * we can't afford to assume that they won't or that we will take 4 or 6 points off them

Braintree were rubbish when we played them in April and judging by results they aren't any better now. Fail to win and, not only will Woking be on the same points and have 2 games in hand, we won't be demonstrating the sort of quality needed by champions.
