This is the poorest the league has been since we came down IMO, with very average teams and we still look no better than the last 2 seasons.

Quoted from ginnywings
Expecting Hurst to "go for it" aint gonna happen. He's already talking about the play offs, just as he did this time last year and the year before. .


He effectively talked about play off's before we kicked a ball this season, telling all that there were 3 or 4 better teams in the division.

Or '3 or 4 ahead of us at present'

And it has been so all season to the present point. We thought ourselves into that position to an extent. We'll see. As I've said many times before, IMO we have to be promoted this season, or we will face some real difficulties.

If all 11 players selected kept playing consistently, then they wouldn't be playing for Town. it's a fact of life down here.

What Hurst needs is the fortune teller's luck to know which of them are in form and on that run of consistency.

Look at Saturday - Hannah could have had 2 in 10 minutes , but couldn't take his chances - they also make 2 rare schoolboy defensive blunders, both of which result in goals for opponents = 2-1 defeat in what seemed a full on end to end game on the radio.

My stepson and family, who went, all agreed that we gave it a good go but came up short in the end !

Stop kidding yourselves, we are not as consistent as Barnet but can match the others who are like us good one match and average to poor the next, we will make the playoffs but have no hope of pegging back Barnet who have shown that they are the best of a  mediocre bunch and we with our resources and players should have done better against the midtable to lower teams

I must say I have not seen a really stand out opposition team in any game at Blundell Park this season. In previous years there has been one or two each season. This is why it is a bit frustrating at times because we know we can beat anybody, but for whatever reason we have failed to do so on too many occasions. We have had plenty of opportunities to climb to the top of the pile but I fear it is too late now.

Saw a league table the other day after virtually everyone had played 16 games. We were very much mid-table. We have taken many more points that most since then but we still look a little bit short of top spot.

It is very unlikely, but I dont think any fan expects the team to give up on winning it, and on that basis I havent given up either. Highly unlikely i know but there is still a chance (as there is that we fall away altogether).

What happens if you take Akinde out of the equation, does anyone think Barnet would be capable of automatic promotion then?
