Sky say 14:1 against us going down which I think is generous. Could take it and pray to lose!
If Morecambe win which is quite possible , Barnet beat a relaxed Morecambe (likely) in the next 2 we need 2 points. 2 draws or a win. A bit scarey UTM

Just catching up on this, so sorry if I repeating someone.

But if Morecambe lose tonight, then Barnet beat them on Saturday, which we all don't want to happen, then Morecambe  have to get a result away at Coventry, even if we lose both games

The other teams can do as they will.

We beat County at the weekend we are safe.

Let's keep our fate in our own hands and not look to others.

Stop worrying about other games, we can do nothing about then.
One thing is definite,  we will be at least two points clear when we go to the last game, it will be in our hands.
Lets behave like what we are, the best fans in the football league and get right behind the lads

Here's what he said to me

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

I'm taking nothing for granted, despite us being 5 points clear with 2 games left. We have had such low points in recent years, that it wouldn't surprise me if we dropped into the last two, for the first time in 46 games, in the very last game of the season and got relegated by FGR. All the other disappointments would pale into insignificance if it were to happen, but being a GTFC fan for the last terrible 15 years has made me feel anything is possible. We cannot seem to shake off Barnet completely.

To have any chance of staying up Barnet had to win their last three games. Very few decent sides win three on the bounce, let alone a team in the bottom two.

Ok, so Allen has done an amazing job of motivating them in recent weeks, but the truth is that they are basically a poor side. Teams like Barnet seldom have the consistency to win week in week out. One slip up and they are done for.  

Hats off to them if they pull it off, but history suggests they will most likely drop points in the next two games. How ironic if it were Chesterfield that sent them down!

Obviously tonight can change things, but.... thinking ahead to our game on Saturday.

It is an absolute MUST-NOT-LOSE game. Not a must-win. If we don't manage to win against what clearly is a decent side (despite them looking poor against Chesterfield on TV, they're up there for a reason), then it's vital we can hold on for a point.

Getting a draw as opposed to losing could be the difference between survival/relegation.
Getting a draw leaves us only needing to draw at FGR on the last day.
If we lose to Notts County, only a win at FGR guarantees safety.

Obviously hope we win on Saturday but just need to make sure we get at least a draw.

I agree with that. Of course we could lose on Saturday and still be safe if Barnet don't win on Saturday, but as you say if all else fails I would obviously prefer to be in need of a draw at FGR rather than a win.

Like most of us I can't wait for it to be all over.
