As soon as we lose/draw a game and Bristol/barnet win, then we've basically ended our chances to an extent haven't we? Although i think we are capable of going on a run, I think there is also a 'good' chance that we will not get 3 points tonight. The players need to have the mentality of the fans and just go out their and do it.

That would give us 81 points and enough for a play off spot IMO. Anything more would just alter where we finished from 5th to 2nd as i can't see us winning the league now. It's a big jump in form to get to 38/40 points from 16 games. I live in hope as ever. Totally agree. Anyway, we'll see in good time. There will be a very different mood on here if the results tonight and Saturday are not what we're all hoping for. No doubt we'll go from boundless over optimism to unrestrained doom - neither of which extremes I go along with. I think we're all sort of expecting Town not to have a case of 'the emperor's new clothes' and we take a real step away from some of our shortcomings. I've got an open mind and am hopeful, but I worry about tactics and selections, and getting the best out of the players we've got. Let's see... "You should do what you love while you can"

Only time will tell. It is certainly possible, and I've always said that if it's mathematically possible, then there is always hope and as fans, we should always hope for the best. I'm hoping for the best! Onwards and upwards you Mariners!   [IMG]http://i58.tinypic.com/mvnser.png[/IMG]

He had nothing to do with signing a genuine left footed corner taking defender, thus releasing our best player to play on the right, and he certainly didn't sign or play our goal scorer tonight, did he?

We sounded great tonight and hope that'll only get better as the new signings gel with the existing squad. Must be some real positivity and optimism in the dressing room at the minute!

I even sensed some positivity from Hurst in his interview and that gave me more confidence that we are gaining momentum. This is key going into the business end of the season, Barnet seem to be wilting, Brizze rovers peaked but I feel they will run out of steam. 'Can we do it' , we will if we carry on like this renewed Town side are playing. Supporting the Mighty Mariners for over 30 years, home town club is were the heart and soul is and it's great to be a part of it.

The last 3 victories - and the manner of those 3 wins - makes me think it is possible, unlikely but possible. UTFM
