tonight is going to be great. BG will show his ability to vary the tactics.

Town are going to win 4-2 with HM scoring 2 and 1 each Barry and Paine

This will be a very good test. this is basically playoff 2nd leg conditions where we are already 1 or 2 down. we have to go out and win!

Not sure what to think about this. FGR have been a bit wobbly recently, but I guess the pressure is off for them now and that can sometimes help. Hopefully they're still suffering a hangover from Saturdays celebrations!

Gotta go for it tonight. Fans & players alike really need to start the game strongly.

100% this.

We are so hit and miss this season, we can easily thump any team in this league but just as easily get beaten by them all.

FGR have been pretty shit recently with only 4 wins in the last 14 games and only scored more than 1 goal once in a 2-0 home win vs 2nd bottom Oldham at home.

The game is there for the taking, maybe they will sit back knowing they are promoted already, when we had been promoted under Macari, PdC and McMahon (in championship winning season previously) we did not win the next game after confirming promotion as each time we stepped "off the gas" as they say. Hopefully FGR will do the same tonight rather than pressing to win the title.

Anyway I would rather Exeter won the title rather than the vegans.

We need to get behind the team and help them, FGR players wont be used to playing in front of such large crowds (over 2.5k) so that may work in our favour too?

When you look at the home and away league table it doesn't take an Einstein to see where the problem lies.

At home, yes, even 3rd from bottom Stevenage have won more than us at home.

On the other hand, we've won more away games than all but seven teams in the division have won *at home*

Says a lot about the managers tactics and inability to execute game management at home. If our home was as good as away we would be in the auto places
