I think the two Easter games need to be looked at together.

If any of York, Woking, Braintree or Torquay win both they will be well placed to gain safety.
If they lose both they are likely to be relegated.
If any of Guiseley, Maidstone, Sutton or Solihull win one of the two then they are pretty much safe.

Unless we get something at Lincoln, which is going to be very hard, and assuming we beat Braintree which we simply have to do, then we’ll still be battling with Braintree and hopefully York & Woking, plus hopefully some of the next four. Solihull look the most likely candidate from them.

Our last away defeat was at Bromley on 4th Feb. In the last 5 away games we have only conceded 2 goals.

Lincoln is a very tough ask but we just might get a draw if we keep our shape and fight for every ball.

The key for us is that the other teams in trouble get at best 1 point and no more. Impossible to speculate I have been wrong 5 out of the last 6 games trying to predict our results but in terms of points I predicted 7 and we got 5.

Maidstone is the real surprise with 4 straight wins!

I agree about keeping the shape and that is the key to containing any side and is only something the team has been doping since Dave Hedges began scouting the opposition.

It's no surprise (to my way of thinking) that at long last they are looking more professional and better prepared.

There's been a load of mis-informed rubbish posted on here about this guy by people who haven't got a clue as to the nuts and bolts of his brief.

(I think they use the old Family Stand for flags and overflow)

Not those blocks they aren't ~ they're by the corner flag. The only 'goal' they'll be behind is the removable one the keeper warms up in.
