Can anybody explain to me the sound footballing reasons for Wright to be playing for this club. And we're playing 4-5-1, you can throw in any other ideas but it's 4 at the back 1 up front and 5 running around in the middle. I can see 6-4-0 at Ebbsfleet!

I understand not switching to Plan B because it's impossible when you don't have a Plan A.

I'll be at Ebbsfleet for the sole reason that the alternative is shopping with wife and daughter on Oxford Street. Mind you...

I still admire you for carrying on with this this season. It can't be uplifting work!

I do it with my laptop upside down so it looks like we're challenging for the automatic spot

I was there! I was there to see the demise of a once great club and the despair of a hundred and twenty or so once proud fans.

We have reached rock bottom. Any lower and we will be a part time club in a regional league with a £100k millstone around our necks.

The Board have met with the manager to discuss providing funds for the rescue which, apparently, cannot begin until January - that may well be too late.

It's not all doom and gloom. Win our game in hand - which is at Eastleigh tomorrow night and we leap all the way to 21st on GD, though Chesterfield will have a game in hand over us. Hmm... win our game in hand... away from home... errmmm... Not likely.

We're not dead yet but the fat lady is oiling her larynx. An escape now would be bordering on the miraculous if we insist on playing hoof ball to a mini-forward who is our leading scorer but is not by any means a target man.

Wow. A win, 2 goals scored and a clean sheet away from home - who'd have thought it.

Of course, we're not out of the woods yet by any means and we have a tough game on Saturday. Let's hope we keep this new formation; 2 up front at home will be a sight for sore eyes!

I was going to look at the spreadsheets after Tuesday, but the thought of what state I might find them in made me change my mind.

Hello stranger! The longer you wait, the worse it can get - will I see you on Saturday (I will be at the Racecourse)?

Thanks Draig for keeping this up. I agree the tables make depressing reading but we are unbeaten against all of the promotion/playoff contenders apart from Solihull Moors (W3, D3, L1). In fact 14 of our 23 points have been gained against teams in the top half of the table. If we had gained the same return against the bottom half teams we would be 17th. We really have to up our game against these.

We will do well to take a point tomorrow but the next five up to the home game against Aldershot are winnable and a minimum of 10 points are a must or else we'll go down. After Tuesday night I don't think that's impossible so let's keep our fingers crossed.

There have been many comments on other threads about Keates' poor recruitment. However, in this second spell I think that has been a bit harsh - I would say that so far 3 out of 4 have been successes (Horsfield, Kennedy and Patrick) which isn't bad. Indeed I think from the highlights and comments on RP that our chances of survival will be much improved if we can keep Kennedy and Patrick to the end of the season.
