Anybody got details who is playing ?
I don’t do twitter or face thingy. I rely on a match thread for pre-match info.

Same team but Clifton for Dembele.

Town starting XI: McKeown, Clarke (c), Collins, Rose, Hooper, Clifton, Cardwell, Summerfield, Fox, Woolford, Hall-Johnson.

Subs: Davies, McSheffrey, Suliman, Dembele, Matt, Killip, Jackson. #UTM

As long as Chesterfield and Barnet don't gain any ground on us today I'll be happy ....... UTM

Macclesfield crowned National League champions.

Chances are Wrexham will miss out on promotion again this season.

If we stay up bring back Shaun Pearson.

Looks like we are setting up to keep it tight.

Why the hell am I so optimistic?! I’m bordering on pre-world cup “of course england are going to win it” optimism for us today even though I know deep down they’re going to let me down, just like they do every weekend.

But for the next 24 minutes, I’m going to sit here utterly convinced that by 5pm, we’ll be safe.

Spoke to a couple of Wrexham fans recently. They're not quite as keen on SP as they have been. Comments included, gives away too many needless free kicks, starting to make a few mistakes unlike earlier in the season and spends too much time arguing with referees..

Looks like we're setting up not to score many goals initially - but this could be the day.

Since I'm long past the time when I believed or hoped England would ever win anything so it is that I'm filled with nothing but pessimism that we we will be staring into the abyss come full time. :(
...... OK,  maybe I have a little bit of HOPE! UTM!!!  :)

Burns just said Swindon have made six changes, incuding a rookie 18 year old at centre half

Hopefully we can take the game to them before they get in to their stride

Start well and force an early goal like we did at Wycombe and this could be our afternoon

Come on Town!

Lets face it our most attacking team doesnt have a chance in hell of ever scoring so I doubt we'll get a hatfull today

Sounds like it's the Grimsby boys making all the noise already

Weird thing football. I had two Wrexham ST holders stay at mine last weekend. ( one of them clueless and had £10 on a 2-2 draw) and they still love him.  But they did say the whole team has lost it since Keates fuckked off.

Barnet winning   :-/

Snapped the Ariel on my dab radio setting it up. Gutted.

Barnet winning

if  Barnet win we must get something at Swindon. A draw wil do

Dropped my radio, now defunct.

We sound good or Swindon are poor at the moment.

Quoted from TheGoalKipper

if  Barnet win we must get something at Swindon. A draw wil do

I think we need to match or better  their result or we are in serious trouble. We know that anyway but it would start getting critical.

All Town first 20 minutes but they've just started to get in to the game a bit more now

Got to keep on the front foot and not let them in...

UTM

Problem today is - Newport have nothing to play for (being mid - table) - just players seeing out their contracts. So Barnet likely victors.

Town have to hang on to not conceding today and even then - it's going to be tough!

Swindon score but disallowed for a handball

Phew!!!!

Village Green lead against Chesterfield

Think we're going to have to pull our socks up and try and go for the win to increase our points tally or else it'll be even more pressure for the last two games

I think I'd rather Chesterfield win that one, gives us more options

It's a tricky one - If FGR win they pretty much can't get relegated so will be easier to play for us on the final day of the season. But likewise it'll make Barnet's life easier as well.

Swindon hit the bar

Come on Town..... got to keep it tight and fight for everything

Swindon hit bar..gulp!

1-1 FGRvsChesterfield

Chesterfied equaliser

Now let's hang on till half time   8)

perfect time to score

And spare a thought for Accrington Stanley who, already have gained promotion are 2 goals up at Wycombe(placed 3rd) ) away.

I think back to Town's victory at Stanley and think - what went wrong? And what went right for them?

Massive 45: minutes ahead 🤔

Can't bear this - off to cut the grass

Quoted from FishOutOfWater

Your wish is granted master. ;)

All them years of wondering why we never get the rub of the green from referees and now weve been saved by them

You're kidding me?  ;D

They have a tactically inclined manager in Coleman who has an eye for a player

We had Russel Slade

As it stands Barnet would have to win their last 2 games to have a chance of stopping us staying up   :)

Could do with Crewe beating Morcambe aswell to really mix it up a bit UTM

now we want Barnet to draw or lose
and chesterfield to wim just in case

Full time pls

Good half that. Best player has been the ref so far.
Hopefully we don’t sit back and try to defend it from the off.

Big half time team talk from Jolley aswell to keep the players motivated etc

Come on Podge get a goal for JF   8)

Hang on in there Town!

Are we under the cosh?

Yeah a bit at the moment but we’ve had our share of pressure. They look much better than us overall though.

Quoted from promotion plaice

Come on Podge get a goal for JF   8)

Well Nouble and Hayes are on now - although Amond has not been taken off - perhaps they can by-pass him for an equaliser?

Not hard is it we are excrement! But just defend for your lives boys please

Quoted from cmackenzie4

Just need Newport to equalise now

Barnet 2-0

Do we risk putting on Suliman and taking off hopper??

Newport not had a single shot on target yet 2-0 Barnet now

Barnet go 2  up :-/

Quoted from craigy

Do we risk putting on Suliman and taking off hopper??

If we sit back hoping to soak up pressure they'll probably score. We really need a good counterattack plan to get another goal and kill the game off.

barnet 2 up/ WE MUST WIN

We could do with Crewe scoring now to put the pressure on Morecambe

Barnet 2-0 up now

It's all in our hands so come on lads....  

Not long to go now and Suliman comes on for Hooper

Got to see this one out.....

Yes cause Morecambe play Barnet next week

Exactly mate, we win today and the pressure is on Barnet.

Can't stand the stress I'm sure my clock stopped.

Crewe!

Morecambe losing. It's getting better

Morecambe losing

Don’t let a Barnett win take the shine off what (up to now) is a great result for us.
If we (as expected) had got nothing today it would be far worse.

I bet Barnett fans are more gutted than we are.

Port Vale & Yeovil only a point above us as it stands more teams being dragged in to the mix UTM

In to the 90th minute

Come on Grimsby!!!

and Crewe score even better

Morecambe sucked in !

Crewe score so Morecambe dragged in to it now

Four minutes to keep them out!!

UTM

C,Mon Town!!

chesterfield all bit down Barnet have to win both games all in our hands people they have to turn 5 point in 2 games I think we are safe imo

Barnet will win the last two games against Morecambe and Chesterfield. Looks like Morecambe may be relegated with Chesterfield who are already down.

Quoted from zorro_is_a_Mariner

chesterfield all bit down Barnet have to win both games all in our hands people they have to turn 5 point in 2 games I think we are safe imo

Far from safe because Barnet's two remaining games are against Morecambe and Chesterfield.

morecme lose

Corner for Town

Great result. Really solid performance, deserved to be more comfortable. Shame Barnet won, but it made it hugely important for us to win.

Thank F**K for that

YEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I think I've aged 20 years listening that second half  ;D ;D

Fantastic result for town.
Now wheres my calculator

Its all in our hands now. Come what may

Well done to Michael Jolley and his team. Who wishes Phil Brown had got the Grimsby job now? Swindon have been rubbish since he took over.

UTM

Brilliant! That will give us the confidence going into the next 2 games, one more win and we are staying up!

Get in. All hail the obligatory Mitch Rose penalty.

Brilliant brilliant result. Well done all the players the staff and the supporters.

I am now a Cambridge fan Tuesday night!!

It’s Cambridge midweek , then Barnet ! Hopefully they will both be below us still when they play each other

Someone correct me coffee I am wrong but that's chesterfield out of the picture now isn't it .

Wow, how different does the table look now!

3 points between 18th and 22nd

Still a massive ask for Barnet to win two with the pressure on and Morecome scrapping for their lives too.

Well done town, massive 3 points

Quoted from sapper mariner

Someone correct me coffee I am wrong but that's chesterfield out of the picture now isn't it .

Yes, they are down.

Quoted from TheGoalKipper

Morecombe have a game home to BARNET

perfect world then, Cambridge do Morecambe midweek and then Morecambe do Barnet next weekend simples.
Of course Town could just go and take care of business and the above is irrelevant.

Call me a pessimist, but there is a nightmare scenario brewing where Town need to beat FGR to survive, in a match where a loss for FGR would send them down.

Chesterfield aren't down. They can still catch Morecambe.

Houdini like characteristics by Town - just looking for a goal from open play to see us out  ;D

Quoted from sapper mariner

Someone correct me coffee I am wrong but that's chesterfield out of the picture now isn't it .

Yes bbc final score seemed to think the late morecambe loss had stopped them going down but that relys on morecambe and barnet both losing all their games which is impossible as they play each other

Spireites not down but need a miracle

Grimsby Telegraph has no report or a mention of the Town result. Has somebody thrown their toys out of the pram?

Morecambe being in the position they’re in really helps us now, what a massive win today’s result was for Town, we’ll done to MJ and the lads.👍

Morecambe back in trouble. Hopefully Cambridge do a number on them on Tuesday. Then they play Barnet, can’t both win!

Then they have Coventry final day.

Good win today. Barnet CANNOT drop any points. I know it's not a big ask for them to win both but.....Hopefully Morecambe will lose on Tuesday to Cambridge.

2 best performances of the season have been against Swindon. Home win was great football, away win gritty and vital.

Brilliant!

Our last three matches results are better than a lot of the teams higher up than us.  That is encouraging news for us and our manager.  It's the shite before  M.Jolley that  has been the problem

Quoted from Tommy

Chesterfield aren't down. They can still catch Morecambe.

Morecambe could well lose their last 3 games but do you really see Chesterfield (-33 GD) winning their last 3 games and over coming a -15 goals against difference between them and Morecambe (-18 GD). Also Barnet would have to lose their last 2 remaining games when they have won 3 drawn 1 and lost 1 in their last 5 games.

If Carlsberg did relegation escapes.

My first game since Morecambe away. Not pretty but if effort and team spirit count for anything we should be safe.
Haven’t seen a loss this season - 2 away wins (PV and today) 2 home draws (Lincoln and Crawley) and the draw at Morecambe. Given the desperate situation I thought today’s performance was the best I’ve seen although clearly lack a clinical finisher.
Looking forward to Notts C.

I think that MJ has proved that maybe you can't polish a turd but you can get a bit of a shine on it !!!

He has sorted out a settled team and a tactical way of playing. Round pegs in round holes. Makes sensible tactical substitutions not just like for like. He is doing as well as he can given the squad he has.

Just a pity that County aren't out of the automatic promotion race. Their play-off spot is secure so they can come at us hell for leather next week. Hope we can nick a couple of early goals and then see it out!

Excellent stuff.

Well done the players and the manager , finish the job next week.

Also Barnet would have to lose their last 2 remaining games when they have won 3 drawn 1 and lost 1 in their last 5 games.

If Carlsberg did relegation escapes.

No, I can't see them winning another game. But was just saying they won't have the "R" next to them in the table just yet as it's still mathematically possible for them to stay up.

We might yet need them to do us a favour though and take points off Barnet on the last day.

Let's hope that Cambridge beat Morecombe on Tuesday. Then Morecombe's home game v Barnet becomes a must win for them. If they beat Cambridge they are safe and probably easy pickings for a highly motivated Barnet side fighting for their lives.

We have two chances now. A win in either secures our place. Two draws would also be enough. I am hoping FGR are mathematically safe when we go there.

But I have a feeling that Barnet may drop points against Morecombe.

Quoted from Balthazar Bullitt

If he hasn’t then I will buy them for him. UTFM

Just watched the highlights on Sky Sports, thought that ref looked familiar.  John Brooks, didn't like him as a ref in the non-league from the games we played at home. Seems to have done good this game lol! (tick)
