Good luck Barrow 🤞

Sadly that was a very weak performance 😔
We had 2 great chances to score (Fletcher in 1st half and Rose 1 on 1 with keeper in the 2nd half)
Could have come away with a point but we should have had a point against Chesterfield and Barnet but again the defence was all over the place.

Just can't see us getting a sniff at Cambridge, they'll come at us like a freight train and it might be hold on as much as we can so our goal difference is ok.

As sad as it is we need pthers to lose so we can have 1 last dance on the final game of the season.
Tranmere need to lose Tuesday night then we need Newport, Harrogate, Tranmere and Crawley not to pick up wins this Saturday then its the almighty battle the final weekend where knowing our luck we'd win and others would too 🙄

Football can be a strange game, maybe theres one final twist to come????

It’s not about luck, injuries aside we’ve been pretty lucky in that the other teams have been equally as poor as us or we’d have been relegated long ago. This league is as weak as it’s ever been, to think two years ago we weren’t so far off the likes of Stockport and Wrexham.
Cambridge goes one of two ways another Grimsby result or we make a fight of it and pull off a Bromley/MK result. It’s not in our hands though which it has been for a while until now, we’ve only ourselves to blame. Thrown away points in the latter minutes, inability to win against teams around us and some horrendous goals conceded 2/3 a game average will be what seals our fate.

Like others I think it will go the the Newport game, but it could be goal difference that eventually takes us down, especially if Cambridge throw a stack in against us.
