Well, still in our own hands. Should be a cracking match and maybe a sell out on Sunday!

May I be the first to say 3 points out of the last 12 ain't good enough to get us promoted.
I will be there to see the Burton game and purchase my season ticket for next season.

Well done to Barrow, they were no mugs tonight. McNulty did a great job on our forwards.
On to Burton then. Good luck boys!

Oh well, I think deep down most of us thought that it woul go to the final day of the season.
I expect that must be a good pay-day for the club on Sunday anyway!
At least it means that we have it in our own hands - if we had pushed too hard at the end and had come away with nothing we could have missed-out even if we won against Burton if Kiddy had won courtesy of goal difference.
I've got a sneaking suspicion that Oxford will sneak it as they will stuff Northwich on Saturday - given their form in the last few months you would hardly bet against them if they do make it....
It's all "ifs" and "buts" though -a win on Sunday and we are in the play-offs - anything less will result in the release of the end of season DVD a few weeks early!
Burton were always going to struggle over the last few games - I bet we are just as disappointed that we have slumped since the win up there!

Enormous pressure on this last game of the season, not just at Plainmoor but also at the Abbey, Field Mill and Aggborough Stadium. Who will rise to the occasion and who will falter at the final hurdle. No place for losers, just winners. Exciting times lie ahead! |

 I'd rather we know we HAVE to win on Sunday than all the "maybe" stuff of a draw as THIS side only knows one way to play and that is to win. A win on the last day to define our season? Well we're well used to that aren't we, what is there to be afraid of? Just get our heads down and get on with it I say. Good riddance to unfriendly, un professional and poorly run Woking * tonight, and take bloody Fred Karno Weymouth with you guys and do us all a favour. * did you know it took them so long to get 2,000 Oxford fans through their ONE turnstile the other day the kick off had to be put back one hour? What A bunch of jokers.

100 fans there for us I believe and they clapped off the team as they knew they gave everything out on the pitch tonight and we can ask no more than effort and the desire to try and get the win.
DT said we lacked quality at times and maybe we did but a point keeps things in our own hands and that might not have been the case if we had lost this game.
I hope Bevan is OK and fit for the Burton game, but we have no worries if Poke plays.Good to see Ellis get on and it sounded like he did well as did Nico.
Would have been nice to have got the three points, but at TUFC we always seem to like our drama and where else could you get such end of the season thrillers, nowhere my friends, only at Plainmoor.

Nicholson sounded like he presented a real threat tonight - DT mentioned him as a choice for "POTY" - I certainly wouldn't disagree with that - the number of assists that he has provided has been vital.

Well it's all set up for a Play Off date with Burton then. We need the teams 2nd to 5th to record victories on Sunday and we'll meet the biggest promotion blow up since Newcastle (my other team by the way(footballs harsh isn't it)).

A fair comment when you consider, after being ever present last year, he was replaced by hodges at the start of the season. although carrying a little too much weight early on, he has faught his way back into the side and made left back his own. his defensive qualities aren't the best but his crossing and dead ball skills are first class |

Whilst I don't disagree with that sentiment you can also look at it as 1 defeat in 15. I do not like the way in which we are failing to take chances to win games at present. I've been confident about the last day of season scenario all year and now I suddenly have big doubts. |
