Who would you rather play? All the games involving Town and the other two sides have all been close, We did the double over Eastleigh but we could have drawn or even won the game at FGR which we ended up losing. Eastleigh have not been in the play-offs before, not sure whether that helps or not. Neither side has the fan pressure that we have but they both have rich owners who will be wanting a return on their "investment".  I guess most people's prefences will be what fits in with their travel arragenments?

FGR.......... Only because I think we would do the inflatable thing again........just to see how many of us they could get in a head lock.

Seriously though not bothered we just need to focus on ourselves and not worry about the opposition.

Brizzle fans are terrified of playing FGR as they have beaten them twice this year.........Who knows Barnet could well be in the mix if things don't go as expected on Saturday.

Or Macclesfield. Unlikely but still possible if Maccesfield win, FGR draw and Eastleigh lose.

My preference would be Eastleigh or Macc and avoid FGR. I would take Eastleigh with them having the 2nd worst defensive record in the top 14.  Our problem isn't conceding goals it is trying to break teams down and I fancy us to do this against Eastleigh.

Eastleigh is a hell of a journey for a midweek game and will significantly reduce numbers. I think it will be them but whoever it is I will find a way to be there

I will be gnawing my fingernails on holiday all through the play offs, hoping for the best - just hope the internet stays on all through the two matches in the hotel !!

This is the question. I don't think Eastleigh or FGR will fancy playing us. I'm fairly confident of that.

Lots to take into account:

Eastleigh are the second highest scorers in the division, but have conceded a massive 21 goals more than us. They have won their last 4 games but have lost 3 in their last 10. They don't have a good record against us this season, but they do sell meat pies.

FGR, on the other hand, have lost only 8 games this season - that's 2 games fewer than Barnet (and us). Both clubs are the middle of nowhere however; have no soul or football league pedigree or fanbase, and don't deserve to be promoted.  

I'd rather we played Macclesfield. They are nowt spesh, and we'll take more away.
