oo i dont know i think we're more than 50/50

Agree that tomorrow is Huge though, it wont be a walkover and first goal is absolutely vital


Yes, based on recent results we need Maidenhead to score first.


Miss Scunthorpe. Not a beauty pageant, just sound advice.

I think it’s a step too far this season. Hurst has done well to get us in contention. Completely outplayed by Solihull and Stockport (@ 11 men!).

Having said all that I’ve bought train tickets to London for June 5th…

I know it's natural to speculate, but in reality, no one really knows what is going to happen.

After tomorrow, we could be in the box seat or nervously looking over our shoulders, depending on results, so I tend to take a wait and see approach.

Our propensity to struggle against sides we should be beating keeps us all guessing. What we have in our favour is two winnable home games coming up and we have a pretty good home record this season. We also have a game in hand over most teams, so Tuesday night could be a season defining match.

If we negotiate the next two games successfully and secure our play off spot, I would say we have a more than fair chance of beating Notts or Chesterfiled, but after that, who knows?

50/50 of making the playoffs at the minute. Huge match Saturday.


Given Dagenham and Redbridge’s remaining fixtures, I’d happily have a bet if I could find a bookie offering Evens.

Why are we so negative?  The only team that we can say have been better than us is Stockport. Playing any of the other teams will be all about how we play on the day, and how they do. There isn't anything between any of the other teams, and I back Hurst to get the results we need, home or away, especially with our support.

Solihull were better too I thought. That would be a tough one.

I completely expect us to make the playoffs, if you look at Dagenham’s next two games it is possible we won’t even need another point. One win and we are nailed on. Once in the play-offs my biggest fear is that our lack of goals will be our Achilles heel. Some of these teams Have got more potent strike forces and in games of few chances this could tell

They were better in patches but I remember us hitting the post and having several chances to make it 2-0 before they equalised.
We can compete with anyone in this league we just need to put our chances away.


Gtfc all the way

We had two really good chances to equalise at Solihull before they broke and made it 2-0. We were crap that night but there wasn't much in the game.
