I was expecting more last night John, especially after going in front mate thought press home. Vics comeback strong and had good chances at the end to snatch the points.

We were surprised to be in front at all. Only Richard Brodie did anything to enhance his reputation - everyone else needs a word with themselves. Manager kept the players locked in the changing room for 40 minutes after the final whistle, meaning us poor hacks freezing our nads off waiting for him.
If anything, Vics should be kicking themselves for not putting us away.

They should be really, as said they had the best chances of the game towards the end and should have put the game to bed. Though before the game I did fear the worst for Vics but they put up great performance. Getting some great results lately and survival seems on now, especially with the games in hand.

Massive 4-2 win against Weymouth today.

That's us one place above the drop zone, three points ahead of Fax and level with Weymouth and Altrincham on 36, with two games in hand on Alty.

Anyone have any look with games today? seems to be horrible weather throughout. Bootle v Cheadle called off today with waterlogged pitch.

I wish the RMI had got called off, very strong wind at Hucknall put a lot of doubt in our goalkeeper's mind - 2-0 after five minutes, 3-0 down after twenty and we ended up missing two penalties. Another week closer to relegation.

Good result, but everyone else down there seems to be winning as well.
Our season is over. The players clearly think so. Body language was awful yesterday

That's the only thing, although Halifax isn't a happy place to be at the moment. We certainly had some freak results go against us on Monday, Northwich are back in it and even Altrincham got an unexpected point yesterday.

Our run-in doesn't look two bad in comparision and many of the teams we face in the run-in (Oxford, Ebbsfleet, your lot and Grays on the final day) fit into the "season over" category, so there's something that's in our favour.

The last day should be interesting. Weymouth and Altrincham play each other and I'd be very happy to be well out of the way to let them fight it between themselves.

I reckon Northwich will pull away from the relegation zone by the end of the season. I picked them out to win yesterday at 3/1...did I bet? Did I fffffffff.... Farsley had a great result yesterday, according to my dad they didn't play so well.

Not officially, though lose our next two games (Tamworth and Burscough, both at home) and our last Saturday away game at Gainsborough will become the official relegation party than just the "soon to be relegated" party
