Quoted from GyMariner
The bottom line is, we can't afford to drop any more points. 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.


I actually think there is a bit of leeway, but not much. Barnet have been consistently getting an average of just over two points per game all season and are currently on course to get around 93 points. To beat that, after tonight, would mean we need to get 38 out of the 45 points still available. That's a tall order but the pressure will only grow on Barnet. Having been at the top all season, it's theirs to lose to an extent. Let's see how they handle the pressure on Saturday.

With every win the maths generally moves in our favour. I still think if we don't win the league having the second play-off game at BP will be to our advantage, for which we need to finish second or third. It certainly has been in the past!

Ask me again after Saturday! It's the poor sides we struggle against, especially at home

Well it doesn't when the teams above us also win. In terms of winning the league we'd be better off drawing and the others losing than all of us winning!

I don't know about anyone else but I've not felt this kind of buzz at this point of the season for quite a while. It may be just the aftermath of winning tonight but I kinda have the feeling we actually might do it this season.

Maybe not as champions but a deffo strong play off place.  It seems to me that the camp is well up for everything that is thrown at us and the recent signings have made that even greater.  We have a great squad at the moment just hope no injuries etc get in the way, we could really do with Barnet and the other 'bigger boys' slipping up now and we just keep our heads and pick up those precious points UTM!!

Not only that, but I'm sure Barnet will be tested with bids for Akinde before the end of the transfer window.

The first half tonight was excellent in every aspect apart from killing the game off. If (and its a bit of an unrealistic if) we played like that for the rest of the season then no one in this league would compete with us

Good point, I just hope we keep our 'Akinde's' too
