Big games tonight
Re: Big games tonight
The keeper who was sent off is on loan from MK Dons. Do they have problems in that position?
Re: Big games tonight
Full time and a win for Aldershot.
They go 7th.
They go 7th.

Gateshead made 8 changes tonight to rest players
They must of been confident as a home playoff is now out of their hands.

Re: Big games tonight
With Altrincham playing Oxford City at home on Saturday, it now looks highly unlikely that they won't finish 4th.
So, if we're able to get the required result against Kidderminster, we'll most probably be playing either Solihull or Gateshead in the semi-final.

Re: Big games tonight
Victory for Oldham tomorrow night would leave 4 teams still going for 7th due to Shots negative goal difference!
Re: Big games tonight
Halifax vs Oldham tomorrow night is the remaining game in hand in the division.
If it ends up a draw or Oldham win, at least 3 teams will have a chance of claiming 7th place. If Oldham win, they have an outside chance too, but it would take a specific combination of results to go in their favour.
Southend's strong goal difference could come into play. Aldershot away to Daggers, a surely-tired Halifax away to Eastleigh. Tricky games, whilst Southend are home to Rochdale and will no doubt pull a good crowd in just in hope that there's a story to tell come 5pm. Oldham home to Wealdstone, but with the away team not safe, a freak result is always possible.
Should be a fascinating final day at both ends of the table. Almost forgot we are at home to Kiddy with 2nd place still to play for!

Barnet showing all the flair of Rupert-the-Bears trousers, but lots more style!

Re: Big games tonight
Really interesting final games of season at the top and bottom.
Re: Big games tonight
That is part of the reason why you should always have a keeper on the bench. I hope we take heed of this scenario and have a goalie on the bench in the play-off semi and god willing at Wembley.

Re: Big games tonight
Completely agree with you. I'd always have a sub keeper. It's rare that they're needed but it can be so costly when needed but missing. Having one still allows for 4 outfield players on the bench.
Of course L2 teams are allowed 7 subs so presumably teams there normally / always have sub keepers

Re: Big games tonight
As I predicted last week, Halifax not going to make it. Far from it.
Thank goodness for Aldershot only needing a point in their final game.
