A few people have referred to the 'point we need to confirm safety' but at least in terms of Barnet catching us a point makes no difference does it?



It does if its a single point to Barnet you are talking about - thats all thats needed to keep us safe, a draw with Morecambe is favourite and that'll do it

I really hope FGR get a point on Tuesday. Then they are safe. The less they have to play for the better, because a win at their place is still a get out of jail card for us whatever happens next Saturday. Hope it doesn't come to that.

After yesterday's win, Barnet fans must be thinking that we are more than capable of getting a result at FGR. So for them I imagine its catching Morecambe that is their best hope of staying up.

Should Morecambe win on Tuesday, Barnet might well feel that they are down already.

Both Yeovil and fgr can confirm safety with a draw. Worth a flutter as that's very likely to be the result.

I think this is the time to remember the Serenity prayer.

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.

We have no effect on games played elsewhere so don't worry about them.
What we can do is create the right atmosphere, get right behind the club, team and management, support them positively and don't get on their backs if things start to go awry.
Together we can get out of this mess.

When I was a little boy
I asked my daddy what would i be
would I be United, would i be Leeds
Here's what he said to me

Oh Grimsby Grimsby
Whatever will be will be
You'll follow then faithfully
Oh Grimsby Grimsby


Tell me Mam me Mam
I dont want no tea no tea
I'm watching the Grimsby
Tell me Mam me mam

Do you really think that if FGR are safe and we need to win they will just role over and hand it to us?

Their Chairman will want to send us down if they can - the team will be fully committed to doing that...

Notts are a bit erratic, they had a good result on Saturday but Chesterfield turned them over comfortably 4 weeks ago. We need to get the job done on Saturday.

No. I didn't say that.

I just think that it will be slightly easier for us if FGR are not fighting for their survival too.

Really? What makes you think that? Just because we beat them in a play off final two years ago?

He's a businessman. I am, sure that if he had a preference, which I doubt he does, he would probably choose Barnet or Morecambe to drop as they bring smaller revenue with them on match days.

Surely the opposite could happen, they would be under no pressure and may well play much better than they have been.

You need to stop clutching at straws and hope that it doesn't come down to that day.
