Keeping them polished my friend to a fine clear vision, yes I've just looked through them and we've been promoted back to L2.

Bug ger that red wine!


Red wine cures all ills, well it softens the blow at least...

Some fans see success next season as being in the play-offs.  The play-offs are different in NL.

There are 6 teams in the play-offs, behind the automatic promotion spot.  I hope that we are in the top 7!

I think it goes something like this :-

4th plays 7th at home

5th plays 6th at home

Then 3rd plays winner of 4th v 7th at home

And 2nd plays winner of 5th & 6th at home

And the winners of those games play in the final.

All games are one-off, there are no two legs which would mean if we were to finish in the top 7 (not top) we would have to do better than we have in the past as in our 4 play-off seasons we have only won the first leg once.

Nothing compares to that embarrassing night at Braintree when we lost 5-0.

Even Barralad shouted at Fenty who was sat close to us.

That I cannot believe! Mild-mannered Barra? 😆


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

I don't think our expectations have anything to do with 8 former EFL clubs in NL, or, we've only just come down. Surely will depend on the budget PH is given, no?

We have to go 'buy' nearly a whole team so likely lose a bit of togetherness/confidence at start of season. If we have a top 6 budget then missing the play-offs will be a failure but if say we have 9th/10th biggest budget and we don't finish in top 2 don't come bringing that to PH. He's a decent manager, decent team builder, honest/hardworking, plus, has good contacts. If we give him the resources to succeed I'll be gutted if he doesn't.

Play offs is definitely the minimum requirement as he got some significant advantages going into this season. Longer preseason to prepare, parachute payment combined with the financial mess the NL clubs are stuck in based on this season's funding shortfall.

He's an experienced manager I expect him to be able to build a team that can compete at the right end of the division.

National League last league is 29th May, the first play-offs 5th June, semi-final play-off 12th June and the final 19th June.
Season 2021/22 starts 21st August 2021.

Our last game 8th May, so plenty of time to get ahead of the game with signings, planning and pre-season matches.
