Well there's nothing to lose now and many of our players should have an eye on next season for a new contract wether it’s here or another club .
I’d like to see us really have a go now especially at home , I’m hoping we’re gonna get games where we have more than a couple of shots on target at Blundell park and give us something to shout about .
There’s absolutely no pressure on us now so what do we have to lose ?

We’ve got a swathe of players on two year deals, and a handful who may want to impress.

The playoffs are out of reach but you’d imagine Hurst will still want to finish on a high.

Fundamentally though, our season is done.

Hurst did say after the Brighton game that he wants to win as many as we can and finish high up the league.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the possibility of fatigue affecting us. I don't think we have a spare Tuesday between now and the end of the season which means small gaps between games and the associated changes as the club seek to protect players. I cannot see Hurst being able to avoid changes. Are our squad players good or consistent enough to be able to seamlessly maintain momentum? I guess only time will tell.


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

Fatigue?
2 games a week, just drop the work load in training.

To have a sniff of the play offs we'd have to beat Mansfield twice, win at Bradford and then win six of the other nine. Stranger things have happened, probably. Three league wins on the bounce would be pretty mad to start with so let's give that a bash first. Expect Hunt, Morris and Green to be our midfield 3, Lloyd and Taylor. That team can get a result

Playoffs are worth aiming for.  Very difficult but achievable.  

Is it any more difficult that what we did against the odds in the playoffs last season?

Is it anymore difficult that our cup run against the odds?

Are the playoffs more difficult that both the above successes combined?

I think we have a small chance if the energy and desire is there.  With games in hand to play we may just run out of gas after a long season, a lot of games and a shortened close season.

I've watched every game this season and for me personally this would be my choice starting XI.
Crocombe.
Emmanuel efete Waterfall maher glennon
Holohan Hunt/Green
Clifton mcatee
Lloyd

I can't decide whether I'd prefer a baller like Hunt or a big unit like Green. I guess it'd come down to how the opponents set up etc
