    Wrexham won both games 1-0
    Chesterfield away teams won both. We won 3-2 and lost 1-0.
    Eastleigh did the double over us and we didn’t score. 1-0 and 2-0.
    Halifax we lose 2-1 at home and drew 1-1 away.
    Bromley drew 2-2 at hone with the away tie to go.

    When I look at that I hope we finish 5th and play Wrexham. Or we blob and play away as it seems on the results this season that would suit us better.
    Of course many of those games were pre IB or IB in transition.

    I don’t think we should get carried away with the who our opponents are as they ALL have proven themselves against us and in this league, not forgetting their is literally a couple of points between them all.

    I’m in the camp of play as we have we should have too much. COYP’s

    An
    If we beat Bromley tomorrow we will have got 10 points out of 12 against Wrexham and Bromley, all under IB.

    No need to fear anyone though - I reckon that we will be the team others want to avoid.

    I’m with you. If anything the one team to avoid is Chesterfield. Local derbies generally means form goes out the window.

    Keep playing as we are and there's nothing to worry about.

    If we go up through the playoffs magic but if we don't at least we've got a team to be proud of again!

    I completely agree. We have sort of had to go a few steps backwards and fall out of the playoffs to kick on and go forwards. We have momentum now, energy, intensity and ruthlessness which has combined to make us far better than what we have been at any period this season. It’s all come together at the right time.

    The players should be relishing this and be full of confidence as well. Certainly after playing in front of our fans last Saturday.

    What we must not do is let up even against Bromley on Saturday. Take nothing for granted and go for it.

    I wouldn’t rule out a penalty shoot out in any of the playoff games either. That’s about as nerve wracking as it would get for me. That really is a lottery in the lottery of playoffs.

    We have nothing or nobody to fear or be wary of. Play how we have done in the last six games for the next four games and we will stand a good chance of becoming a football league club again. If we do this and fall short then at least we would all be able to say they gave it a real good go.

    The playoffs are a lottery and quite often the unexpected happens, I just hope the luck is on our side.

    Over the past week, I've found myself beginning to visualise Burchnall giving his post play off final victory speech. I don't know if this is a good thing or not.

    I had a dream the night before we played Weymouth that we beat them 7-0, really! We played on a pitch on the site of the old Home Brewery in Arnold. The pitch was in a natural bowl, with steep banks on all sides. I was pleased because I walked over the fields and got into the ground for free, whilst others were queueing outside. I didn't 'dream' the correct scoreline, but it could easily have been that way.
