Cheers Les.
Well - if Town score a goal for every catheter insertion I had last week - it will be 6-0.
Come on Paul - let’s have 6

Team can only deal with the game in front of them until it's impossible to stay up, same for fans really. Hope to build on the things we've seen, more solid in defence and people willing to take a shot at goal instead of trying to walk it into the net. Sometimes the lads just have to take the chances that come their way instead of be too cautious.

I think most of us just want to see the  sometimes ultra caution put away and just give it a real positive go  for the next few games, if it isn't enough, any sensible GTFC fan would accept it and feel a whole lot more positive for next season.
Come on PH and the lads, miracles can happen!

Caveat - I am a PH fanboy.

I do admit he is pragmatic, cautious and reactive.

But it’s impossible to attack for 90 mins and I feel we have more chance of 1.5-1.7 ppm if we grind out the dour 1-0 shades of grey that ‘could’ enable our survival.

Keep us shape. Keep us tight. Keep us League Two.

Nil-nil to 70 mins, condense the match, set-piece, repeat.

I do think we need to at least avoid defeat tomorrow though. It’s not must win, but it’s close.

1-0 Hewitt ‘82 mins, with the shïttïest goal you could ever hope to see to win the ‘Buckley Derby’.

Trust all is well with you down in Devon - I think
I feel that Town will be massively motivated to win tomorrow 🤞


Can you imagine 5000  fans  in BP though? I genuinely think if the fans could be there we would be flying tomorrow.

I have to disagree with you about tomorrow. We are 9 points behind Walsall and need to close the gap to stand a chance of staying up, so to me it is a must win game.

As it is in the league your 1.5 - 1.7 ppm would give us 46/48 points so depending on the results of others it might be enough, which really does make it a must win.

With Exeter, Cheltenham, Bolton, Cambridge, and Salford coming up are all going to be tough games; Bradford, Morecombe, Oldham, and Port Vale are not going to be easy but we should get decent results from those 4.

Staying up is doable and a win tomorrow would take the strain of needing wins in the last 2/3 games.

If we had fans in all season we wouldn't be in this mess. Holloway would have been out sooner and any player not pulling his weight would have known about it.

I don't know how many points at home we would have had if fans were allowed in, but I recall when George Kerr was manager he reckoned home fans were worth at least one goal.

I know what you’re saying, but if you try that then do go a goal behind, can we switch it quickly enough to go for goals?


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.

That might have been the case with 10,000 in there, mostly stood up, but half that sat down isn’t the same.

I agree but with even 4,000 it would have made a difference, especially in getting rid of Holloway.
