Daft question, mathematically a draw is best. Obviously you want 2 of your opponents to get 2 points between them rather than 3 points between them.


No, Colchester have played 2 more games than Barrow. And add the fact that Barrow have won 5 of their last 7 matches & Colchester have won 1 out of their last 23 league matches.

If we stay up realistically it will be the 2 Essex clubs we finish above.

This is one very bitter pill to swallow.

In saying that, I refuse to wave the white flag until it is mathematically impossible.

Colchester and Barrow play each other next, who do we want to win?

Seems like a Barrow win is the best result as Colchester are in freefall and look like the team to catch (not to mention Southend)


A very good point away at the form team Bolton today, plus a new team coach as well as ex Exeter manager Paul Tisdale being brought in.

We have a very small chance of catching Colchester, Barrow are a point ahead of them with two more games in hand and on a good run of form, so deffo Barrow win please

Colchester are at home on Monday so they will all be driving to the match rather than travelling on their new team coach.

Oh and that's Paul Tisdale who after a good 1st season at MK Dons has done absolutely nothing and been sacked twice.

I think we have a very good chance of catching Colchester IF we can turn these draws into wins.

Cheltenham is a winnable game. Their form is hugely inconsistent. Their last 7 matches...

You should be on the stage that was so funny.

A bit like Paul Hurst then.

Funny how things turn out. We drew with Colchester and beat Barrow. As it transpires, we would have been better off drawing with Barrow and beating Colchester. Same  amount of points but its Colchester we are now targeting. Barrow are too consistent for us to catch them now. It's fine margins. Barrow have won 5 of last 7, we have won 1 and drawn 6. The difference being that they have a regular scorer in Quigley. They are no better than us apart from that crucial area and shows the value of a goalscorer.

I think Colchester would be a bigger threat than Barrow in the National League next season, so I would prefer Barrow to get relegated with us.
