Good afternoon everyone. Sit yourselves down.
Well, on paper the Grimsby task appeared a difficult one. Nick, can you outline the game for me please:
Nick: " Of course Alan. Darrel took charge and decided to go with the same eleven as last week"
About sodding time too, what happened Darrel? Did you think of that all by yourself lad or did your pencil break so you put in last weeks sheet. Sorry Nick, please continue...
Nick: In fairness to team Fishcakes they did start brightly, but team Gaslight set about their task and stuck to it admirably, with a lucky break coming our way in the way of a penalty. Young Matthew stood forward and........................well, missed Alan.
Oh great, sounds wonderful. So young man you step up but don't deliver the goods, still never mind eh, i do have some sympathy for you, afterall the goal is only 24 feet wide! 24 sodding feet wide! A ball is what? 10 inches wide! I don't know whether you got any bloody kids yet sunshine, but i think yer missus may need a sodding funnel to help you stay on target when you're copulating.
I will overlook this though, cause i like you Matthew, your a good old work hard/don't shy away lad. So Stay positive. Carry on Nick....
Nick: Alan, the second half was dominated by Gaslight but probably heading towards stalemate when Young Lockyer literally pounced on an opportunity, and he smashed the ball true into the Fishcakes net.
Now that is more like it! Which one of you is Lockyer. Don't be shy, stand up lad. Ah the 40's throw-back haircut and gum shield boy- Good lad, very good. It seems to me yourself and the young Ollie have done something others don't try enough. Have a bloody shot out of nothing. A few of which could be the difference at the end of the series. Well done Tom.
Nick: A resolute display Alan and a much deserved victory when the final whistle blew.
Excellent, thank you Nick i assume someone helped Taylor boy into the showers after, i heard the shower room was only 12 sodding feet wide so may have proved a difficult task. Ummm...
Well, it seems to me that you came out with flying colours, a strong togetherness, some robust tactics and good honest hard work all round has set us up nicely for a grandstand finish to the series. Sounds a bit like a bleedin plug for Ben Hur , cause we've still got Easter and the Beard to come back too!
Let's keep up the hard work, don't get cocky and see where we are in May. Due to your antic's in Ikea last Tuesday i have decided there will be no treat i'm afraid. I have high expectations for performances and behaviour off the pitch, so get back to training and i'll see you all at the next task.
Oh, one more thing...Well done everyone.

We need to convert all theses draws into wins to achieve that points target. Our problems haven't been against the better sides in the league, i think our record against top half sides is very good. Our problems have been against the 'minnows'. We mainly have 'minnows' at home which is an advantage, but i think our biggest advantage is that our remaining away games are against sides chasing something, meaning they are more like to come at us, which is when we've been better as we seem to struggle to break down stubborn team. It's definately possible imo

I think we might have to beat Macclesfield to have any chance. Unfortunately I think our stuffing them at The Mem was probably a one off bad day at the office for them Very true. And we are also going to have one or two off-days along the way. This talk some have mentioned about us not losing again until the end of the season (and it has been said, but I can't be bothered to quote it and all that), is not realistic. We WILL slip up a few times, but so will others round us. It will be a slow but steady task, the way we are going, to overhaul Barnet, the way they are going. But we can do it. The probem might be that Macclesfield have a similar idea.

I fully understand how busy you are but if you get my name wrong again I'll hurt you. Even though you have a face like a Geriatric's Ballsack I'll still slap it until my arm aches. Now get out of my sight."

Looking at this story of the season, after an awful start we have been notably consistent since the beginning of September, hoping that slow and steady will win the race. Barnet got off to a flyer at the start of the season, which has given them the buffer they still have now, yet their form hasn't hit those early heights for a few months now. Macclesfield had a solid start, lost their way a bit, consolidated well and are now on the charge. Who's going to call it?
Table at Sep 1 Barnet P6 W5 D0 L1 Pts15 Macclesfield P6 W3 D3 Pts12 Gas: P6 W2 D2 L2 Pts8 Gas -7pts, Macclesfield -3pts
Form since beginning of September: Gas P28 W15 D11 L2 Pts56 (2pts per game) Barnet P28 W16 D5 L7 Pts53 (1.89) Macclesfield P28 W15 D7 L6 Pts52 (1.86)
Table at Oct 1 Barnet P13 W9 D2 L2 Pts29 Gas P13 W7 D3 L3 Pts24 Macclesfield P13 W5 D5 L3 Pts20 Gas -5pts, Macclesfield -9pts
Form since beginning of October: Macclesfield P21 W13 D5 L3 Pts44 (2.1) Gas P21 W10 D10 L1 Pts40 (1.9) Barnet P21 W12 D3 L6 Pts39 (1.86)
Table at Nov 1 Barnet P18 W12 D3 L3 Pts39 Gas P17 W8 D5 L4 Pts29 Macclesfield P17 W7 D7 L3 Pts28 Gas -10pts, Macclesfield -11pts
Form since beginning of November: Macclesfield P17 W11 D3 L3 Pts36 (2.12) Gas P17 W9 D8 L0 Pts35 (2.06) Barnet P16 W9 D2 L5 Pts29 (1.81)
Table at Dec 1 Barnet P24 W15 D4 L5 Pts49 Gas P23 W11 D8 L4 Pts41 Macclesfield P23 W10 D9 L4 Pts39 Gas -8pts, Macclesfield -10pts
Form since beginning of December: Macclesfield P11 W8 D1 L2 Pts25 (2.27) Gas P11 W6 D5 L0 Pts23 (2.09) Barnet P10 W6 D1 L3 Pts19 (1.9)
Table at Jan 1 Barnet P28 W18 D5 L5 Pts59 Gas P28 W14 D10 L4 Pts52 Macclesfield P28 W13 D10 L5 Pts49 Gas -7pts, Macclesfield -10pts
Form since beginning of January: Macclesfield P6 W5 D0 L1 Pts16 (2.67) Gas P6 W3 D3 L0 Pts12 (2) Barnet P6 W3 D0 L3 Pts9 (1.5)
Table as of 17/2/15 Barnet P34 W21 D5 L8 Pts68 (2) Gas P34 W17 D13 L4 Pts64 (1.88) Macclesfield P34 W18 D10 L6 Pts64 (1.88) Gas -4pts, Macclesfield -4pts

If gateshead play as well as they can that will be tough. By far the best team I've seen this season at the mem. Well first half anyway They played well when we let them, but as soon as Clarke came on for Balanta and tightened up the midfield, allowing The Mighty Beard to move forwardwe were all over them. If he hadn't been for Clarke's error for the second we were all over them after that. If anyone puts them under pressure they will roll over, as proved by their league position. Have seen them other than at the Mem and they played great stuff.Biggest threat to remain unbeaten along with Macc but Gateshead are very good.

Another lesson many of you will do well to learn is to admit when you are wrong. On this occasion i have been alerted to a grammatic error on my behalf but please remember i was brought up in Hackney not sodding Eton. So thank you for pointing that out to me, it all makes bloody sense now - Two L's for our manager - how coincidental, just like a novice driver, one on the front one on the sodding back. No wonder your sodding team selection is like a bloody three point turn, you never look like you know what to sodding do. You hit the bloody curb more than your team hit the sodding post, and believe me that takes some doing! Now get back to work and drive us on to promotion or you'll still be wearing those sodding plates next year and you won't be able to blame it all on the bleedin old instructor like last year you stupid boy. Go on. Get out. To$$er.

Based on how well they moved the ball they are definatly not a team you want to play in the playoff final on the Wembley pitch. I was very impressed with them.

I've been out of action in the South African bush with restricted internet access. I log on and find many now being ground breaking. Some suggest we Could get 100 points.
How times have changed. Does our form suggest we can win this league. It sure does. Much more hopeful than I've ever been. I think the league will be won before our last game.
We are so positive these days that the ground breaking bus is full!
