Huge credit to Matty and the players tonight. Totally unexpected result ala Cambridge but what a result! The problem is Barrow and that is the type of game we could draw or even lose but i'd say confidently that if we beat Barrow then we get a play off spot because with our goal difference we'd be unlucky to see all the 3 catchable sides ahead of us all win. Magnificent drama today and well done to all involved!
I think FGR will not find it easy to beat an Oldham team stung by a bad result today.
If Oldham have any pride they'll try to correct that. I think FGR won't win, so it'll be up to City.

Buzzing with that what a cracking second half from us...Key was absolutely fantastic all match, loved the celebration for Sweenz goal with McArdle piling in as well 👍👍👍
It's not often the keeper gets to join in the celebration!

Yep, Jokull would probably have broken the crossbar down the other end in all his excitement!! 🤩

I’m gonna put an accumulator bet on the other 3 winning. Just to console myself if everyone wins

Just had a look at the last round of fixtures involving the teams above us.

Forest Green away at Oldham. Newport are at relegated Southend and Tranmere are at home to Colchester.

On paper you'd expect all 3 to win which is a worry. All we can do is put Barrow away and hope the law of averages sees at least one of those teams drop points.

Matt Taylor interview

It's been a tough old season at times and the football hasn't always been easy to watch but the last minute or two of that interview sum up how well we've done overall with a team of kids.

Trouble is though Lego that Newport and Tranmere only need to draw.

Reminds me of Doncaster a few years ago, they had a 'champions' banner waiting on the touchline, a parade planned and numerous flag sellers out ready for the celebrations. Someone who'd seen my red and white scarf and assumed i was a Donny fan, even asked me if i knew what time the parade was!
Don't count your chickens eh!!!

Sh*t. I didn't realize. I thought we had a better goal difference than both?

Comfortably mid-table

We do but we're three points behind them.
