This will be a tough one. In their last five games, Braintree have won four and drawn away to Maidstone.
We have won just one of our last ten - a fortunate 1-0 scraped against bottom of the table Dover. We have shipped fifteen goals in our last four games.
A defeat would leave us a long way from seventh place and the playoffs.
I don't think anyone believed that the manager could fail so badly in such a poor league as to not even be in with a chance of the playoffs, but we are skating perilously close to that. It is amazing that George Edwards is allowing that to happen.
Hall will be missing again. You would think the manager would have used him sparingly as an experienced head to come on and help see out a game. Ninety minutes at Maidstone and a starting place on Saturday with inevitable consequences.
It would be great to see Jarvis paired with Ofori-Acheampong up front where we have been so lightweight. But with neither probably up to ninety minutes, we may see one start and one on the bench.
Is Stobbs nearing fitness? Has McGavin recovered from Saturday's knock? Answers on a postcard.
Come on you Yellows!
