The good news for us is that I now think Wealdstone just did for us as far as the play-offs are concerned ...... and as you know I'm mostly wrong.
I'll never understand footie managers. Don't get why Whelan's a sub. Don't get why we buy Kairo Mitchell and consign him mostly to the bench after two games, and put him behind a loanee who has scored us only one goal.
If we win the next two and then go up through the play-offs I'll be full of admiration and manager love, but I doubt I'll understand it.
Whatever happens James Rowe has done a real job and provided hope for the future - and you can't ask much more than that.
Talking of the future I notice Warrington Rylands have reached the FA Vase Final. Kane Drummond, the young scouser I'd like us to sign scored! I'm sure he's the real deal. He's not intimidated by older, stronger players, he still showed when up against a team from a higher level and was the best player on the pitch, and yesterday he scored in a semi final so he can hold his nerve ......... Dare I write to James Rowe and tell him ......... if we don't snap him up someone else will? After all Rylands owner made his money as an agent ........
And now it really looks like SGB's Sutton all the way. 2-2 at Stockport. No Paddy Madden. Boden scores both for Torquay, whilst we can't score at all. But I still think it was the right move.
Sutton can now forget any pressure Hartlepool can exert on them next week, they only need to win their last game at Barnet and it's all over.
