I suppose we could only answer that if we are promoted at Wembley on June 1st. It was heartbreaking and embarrassing losing on penalties at home in the semi final - ultimately the players have responded (Fylde exception) and hopefully tonight guarantee 4th place and a first play-off game at home. No other distraction's and a chance to rest before the play-offs begin - yes we all would have loved to have been at Wembley on Sunday May 11th but would it have been ideal preparation for a play off game 3 or 4 days later? Fatigue and injuries possible. And then if we had lost to Aldershot getting over that disappointment with very little time. Tonight's opponents Solihull went to both finals last season and lost both. Also Spennymoor having got to the final have now missed out on the play-offs by 1 point. Hopefully we will be looking back in a few weeks time and the FA Trophy loss will be a distant memory.
Available (Im sure he's been linked with us before)? Won promotions in the non league with Salisbury, Bristol Rovers (play offs) and promotions in the league with Bristol Rovers and Port Vale (play offs).
With the home pitch the way it is - and not likely to get any better - and the way we've played against both Oldham and Ebbsfleet do we need to bring a target man in upfront? It's just not Mitchell's game and Waller has played quite a lot of long balls in the last 180 mins which have just given up possession. Obviously its not the way Jim wants to play but we need to find a way to adapt to this pitch or else we wont make the play offs.
Noticed it a lot last season, and again this season.The amount of teams who leave a gaping hole down the centre of the pitch is unbelievable at this level. You get a great view from the Pearl St end. Even before he scored - that pass from Sassi was on countless times. Just hope we can exploit it more going forward.
Are the club going to give us any more explanations as to why we are the only football club with a waterlogged pitch? Halifax, Chorley and Ashton all have games going ahead tonight. What has gone wrong?
Safe to say tonights game is huge I think in the context of this season. Local derby, chance of breaking into 30 points and we've not followed up a win for a very long time (McNulty's first 2 games in charge)? Win 1, draw 1, lose 1 although better than losing week in week out really doesn't gain you any sort of momentum at any point. We need to play at some sort of tempo tonight - please no walking football.
