its a shame

dont get me wrong i want to be in the ldv final as much as you but its a shame its very soon. basically we are in a brilliant position and when we play the final pottentially we could drop down to 4th and if we loose friday and lincoln win their next 2 games then we will be 6th. of course we will have a game in hand AWAY to MACCLESFIELD, the pressure would be really on, knowing we need to get a result and if we were to loose that then we could be in trouble. its just a shame that we are not playing a league game that weekend. however if we win against bristol rovers and others around us loose on saturday and the next saturday then we will still be in the same position we are now if not top with a game in hand away at macclefield, with the pressure on bit knowing a win could virtually guarantee as automatic promotion

I love all this cynicism and despair. The league is ours! (Cup as well!)

Perhaps we should pull out of the LDV final and concede it to Wrexham so we can concentrate on the league?

How dare we be made to play games in hand!

The only crying shame is your punctuation.

If we fail to win automatic promotion I'll be disappointed. If we fail through the play-offs I'll be disappointed. If we lose the LDV I'll be disappointed. Then I'd look back at a season for which my main ambition was to see us in a top-half finish without having to look over our shoulders the whole time and find that we'd outperformed all expectations.

12th I said, and as long as we finish above Orient i'd be happy.

hence i'm ecstatic!

Even if we have to got o playoffs, I'll still be confident. Only Spinner really is showing any signs of fatigue and I'm sure Edwards would be raring to go if he gets in the team.

Plus, we'll have our cup final experience by then!
