Quoted from Yoda
Yesterday was a point lost but it was a lot more than that it was hope.
We need 10 wins to stay up in 20 games i cannot see it.

I hope i’m wrong.


We need 1 more win than Barrow and Southend,  two more than Stevenage.

That last minute gaffe was costly in that it denied us a point, but it gave Stevenage an extra 2, which puts them that little bit further out of reach.

As things stand there is a mini league of four clubs at the bottom, then a bit of a gap to Harrogate. Of those 4, only 2 go down. At the moment, ourselves and Southend look the most likely, but all of them bar us have had an upturn in results lately. There is no reason we can't do the same.

There is also a chance that some other team or teams will get dragged in yet.

Well, you are the most pessimistic poster on the fishy. I never see you make a positive post about anything.

I remember people saying we were down under Jolley, but we won 4 of our last 5 games. Anything can happen, especially when you start playing teams with nothing to play for in mid table,

I am not sure what there is to be positive about, second from bottom, lost at home to a team that hadn't won away for over a year.

I did say at the time when Neil Woods was given the job after a disastrous caretaker spell he would take us down, sadly I was proved right.

I said that too about Woods. But I am more confident that Hurst might keep us up. Won't be easy, but I think we have an outside chance.

For me we need a rock solid centre-half which we don't have at the moment. You only have to look at the recent goals we have conceded that that area is a weak point as well as scoring goals.

I can remember being at Aldershot almost 11 years to the day and having the same feeling of inevitability when Proudlock missed a late penalty, I hope I'm wrong but everything seems to be going against us at the moment
We became a non league club and everything about the club has stayed in that mindset.

I agree on Woods. He should never have been given the job and that was one of the worst decisions this club has made. A real turning point in our history. Even he managed to take it to the wire though.

Hurst has more about him you'd think.
