I keep looking at the standings and trying to get my head around how MASSIVE tomorrow night is in terms of finishing in the play off positions. I really hope people turn up and get behind the boys just like on Saturday. There’s no Champions League and it’s not cold, so there really are no excuses! UTFB 🟡🔵 There are three English teams in European comps... so we'll see. Win by two goals and we're in the playoffs by 10pm. Don't win, and we make it much harder. Games in hand are always crucial at any point of the season. Might lose a couple of West Ham fans and some Southern Scousers, doubt there are many Villa/Boro fans though. Regardless, Boro’s play off push should be prioritised ahead of 2nd & 3rd rate European competitions. Liverpool v Atlanta pales in to insignificance!

UTFB 🟡🔵 I've been putting various permutations in a spreadsheet. If Bath and Hampton both win their remaining games, it doesn't matter what we do. However, Hampton have the hardest run-in with their final two games A vs St Albans and A vs Maidstone (after a very winnable home game vs Dover). If they draw one of them and win the other two they'll still be unreachable on 76 pts. If they lose one of them it comes down to GD (currently +8 vs +7 for us). Bath also have a couple of tough games H vs Torquay (who are better than their league position) and A vs Aveley. If they draw one of them we need to win all three games to pip them by a point (75 vs 74).

If Yeovil get at least a draw from their away game with Truro tomorrow then it's nailed on that the National League will announce on Friday that Yeovil's abandoned match at Weymouth won't be replayed, with Weymouth getting the points. Well I never!

As predicted Nigel!! Weymouth awarded three points!! The cop out method of deciding, wait until it doesn't matter!!
Wonder what would have happened had Yeovil lost last night??
Some pretty non magnanimous comments on the Yeovil forum too re leaving the League, S**t grounds, S**t pitches, S**t towns, glad to be out etc!! Seems they have forgotten just how close they were from going under a while back!!
Probably voiced by a minority of yoof of course, who don't remember how bad things were for them a while back, or where the Club's roots are, and where they began!! Original Southern League and Isthmian League, and that dreadful sloping pitch!!
Good luck to Yeovil, and the majority of decent supporters.

I went down to Huish Park in 2013 when they were in League One. They are a big club and I'm sure they'll be back fighting in the EFL again soon.

My first Farnborough game was against Yeovil in the FA Cup (season we played Brentford). We won 2-1. We were in the Conference then, they were in one of the feeder leagues.
