Gut feeling Town relegated or stay up?

No not sure option.

Yes we have game/s in hand over the bottom 2 but Sutton seem to be on a roll now and Colchester are grinding out points. Us and FGR look to be struggling.

I voted stay up but I think it will be close.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Stay Up. Sutton will run out of games, I cant see them getting 2 wins and we only need 1 possibly 2 imo

Should never ever be in this position though

Going down . I’ve seen it too many times to not know the signs . The players rallied a bit when they got their own way but reverted to type today . I’ll say it again , Artells biggest error was not insisting on his own trusted back room

I’ve voted for staying up.

But the reality has dawned that we will follow the likes of Workington, Merthyr and Bradford Park Avenue into non league obscurity.

The money is in the south of England and rich cities like Manchester.

No money. No league team. Simples.

I think we will go down because for weeks we haven't shown the necessary fight. In a situation like this, you need a team of battlers, of players prepared to run through the proverbial brick wall, and we just don't have them.*

Everything has just been too casual, assumptions made by fans that ppg calculations are on our side, but all that advantage is being slowly ebbed away and the last 2 games have been horrific from a performance point of view, so we cannot even cling to the notion that results will turn because we are playing quite well.

I think that late penalty at Sutton was the turning point, it seemed it was in the stars when you get a ridiculous decision like that go against you.

I hope to God I am wrong, as it would take despair to a new low following the Mariners and we would take a long time to recover.

7/1 to down. Bookies think FG have gone and Sutton highly likely.

Right now it's in our hands. We have winnable home games against Bradford and Swindon that could take us to 45 points. a couple more from our other five fixtures sets a very tough target for Sutton from their remaining 5 fixtures.  I cant see FGR getting near that total.

I think we will stay up, just.

But if we lose on Monday It might be a different story.

Think it’s underestimated quite how much of a run it’s still going to take for Sutton & for us to absolutely capitulate.

If we produce similar performances against Bradford & Newport then I might change that view, but I’ve a feeling we’ll still be fine, just not the 3-4 games to spare I thought last week.
