Why do I feel like we're not even in the play offs? Maybe it's because the last few games have been a damp squib, but I'm not excited about them in the slightest at the moment. I'm filled with dread.
We need some big performances right across the team to have a chance and I just don't feel positive that we're going to get them if I'm completely honest. I so hope I'm wrong and I'm doing the team a big injustice.

Coops:
- Another one ticked off towards the playoffs? No, didn't think we did well tonight. We conceeded the early one, game became end to end. Players must have run KMs tonight. Ran when we should pass, etc. But we dug in and got point - We are a better team when we control game. We don't have the boys to fight end to end.. - Need to make better use of ball. - re Thurs: Things crop up and things change. Hylton had good game and is pushing for start. - re Sun: Will have a team of players who need more minutes, and some who played tonight. - re goal: Let 'em run wide, striker unmarked in box - we work hard on marking in the box so dissapointing - re Gladwin: A totally unlike Gladwin goal. He normally drives and smashes, but that's 2 headers - good for development. - re Rickets: 7 games in 22 days. Got to be careful with him as he's not played much until now. - re Toffolo: dead leg, Thompson: whack on foot. Should be fine. Obika : Back problem, probably due to how much he's run.
Paraphrased and missed bits.

I'm a little bit meh about them. Thinking today about not even watching the first leg to save the stress( I'm sure I will watch, or even go ![Smiley](//thetownend.com/Smileys/tefsmile/smiley.gif)

Horrendous first half, much better second.
Byrne tremendous, Hylton lively again. Branco an absolute donkey from the moment he came on, at least he gave us a laugh with his ineptitude!

Probably for all the wrong reasons, I feel as though Branco is becoming somewhat of a cult legend. (The clothesline against Flint was almost legend status worthy in itself)
As much as I don't want him playing, it's inevitable that he'll end up scoring the winner at Wembley, that's exactly how football works.

And another foul throw I heard. Must drive cooper and the coaches insane.

It wasn't that bad overall I thought.
When you consider that you had 'Team Fighting For Their Lives' v 'Team With Nothing To Play For', it was never going to be a classic from our point of view. I wouldn't say the first half was horrendous (although I did miss their goal which I heard was a bit shit from us defensively) I just thought it was pretty 'meh' really. Second half was much brighter and we could have gone on to win although to be fair, they could say the same thing. So all in all a draw was a fair result.
I think anyone who is on the brink currently should definitely put the razor blades away for the time being at least. I firmly believe this team will come alive for the play offs.*
*Fingers crossed!

v 'Team With Nothing To Play For'
They should be playing for their places in the playoffs, but that's a bit unrealistic given a) the depth of our squad means the nuclease must play and b) you can't play if you get injured. Byrne seems to be our only in form player right now

With nothing to play for a draw was a reasonable result last night. I expect orient to beat us on Sunday. Next Thursday is all that matters.

Gladwin surely? 6 goals in his last 4 games.

I really don't care how we play til Thursday, so long as we don't get any injuries. I'm sure we'll be fired up for the play offs, if not then we don't deserve to go up any way.
I can't wait to get started.

I'm not gonna lie and pretend I'm not concerned with how bad our defending has been in the last month... It really does worry me. I don't think its through lack of trying or urgency, teams are slicing through us so easy atm it's almost laughable. We don't track runners, we don't mark players tight enough and we give attackers running at us at least 3 yards of space without ever really trying to make a tackle.
This needs to be addressed in the next week or else the strikers are gonna have to quickly rediscover some form.
