I honestly think that you are capable of beating Cheltenham over two legs provided you don't capsize like saturday.If you come back to your ground with anything other than a greater thgan one goal defeat then I think you will win. In the final I think it will depend who wins the other semi final. If it is Crewe then i think you can go up however if it is Southend then I think they will go up and I base that on current form and I think they have the players up front capable of outscoring you.
One thing I would say YOU as supporters must go to each game CONVINCED you can win. Believe in your players because over the season they have done you proud. I would say your position has been against all the odds and as such you have shown on many occasions that you CAN win games 1-0 and come back strongly in games as you did against us. These factors could be VERY important in the cup finals ahead.
Thanks for your comments Friendlygas. If you'd like to become a fully-fledged Gulls supporter you'll be welcome.. :-D

Form goes out of the window now. Apart from in Buckles case in his first year here - I'd imagine Lingy and Taylor will have the lads well and truly fired up for this.

Come away with a narrow 2-1 win on Sunday, followed by a 1-0 win at Plainmoor. Southend in the final, beat them 2-1. Easy. ;-)

Time now to come through the next two games with a Wembley appearance and a WIN in that one to finish off the season. :-D
Fair enough we havn't won in last 5 games so that would suggest we are in poor form, just imagine how Wrexham are feeling they finished 17 points ahead of Buckles latest project and got beat? That is harsh but thats the beauty of the playoffs, infact we did it to Shrewbury last year. The playoffs are a lottery, its anyones and form book goes out the window. I take the 2nd half at Hereford as a BIG positive, the game wont be won or lost on Sunday.

are you sure it's ok for me to post my opinions on your forum Matt? :bow:

tell you what I'll agree with you if you call me Wibble Wobble? deal?
Wasn't stated as an opinion though, was stated as fact, facts can be evidenced, it's that evidence I'm seeking.

I've coveted the other gaping chasms in your retort in my original post.

Regardless, form is temporary, class is permanent and over 46 games, we've been as near as makes no difference identically classy to Cheltenham, it's a coin flip.

When it comes to form there is only 2 results that matter your last and next results.

Your last cos you should learn from it and your next as you have to you respond to it.

As for the rest forget it not relevant

We have to forget what has happened over the course of this season and just concentrate on the three* games ahead of us.

Our form over Cheltenham has been very impressive - they've only beaten us once in the last league 10 encounters - and that was way back in 2006.

It's not over yet!

Scorer, any mathematician, scientist or data analyst will tell you that taking your sample from a more narrow range will make your results LESS representative. 10 games is a perfect balance between relevance (not too long) and representativeness (not too short). I stand by my results.

Matt.



form generally takes into account the last 6 games rather than 10.
if anything form is something better represented by a narrower result set.
the most recent results IS you're form

i think for once you may need to accept you're wrong Matt

or at least accept that, by you're own logic, form is more representative over 46 games :lol:

Oi!

This is the first time i've been on since I posted this and there was me thinking I've got a good debate going but then to see that it has turned into a sniping match.

I don't agree with what some of the people who are being attacked are saying but just because they have a different opinion to you doesn't mean you have the right to start calling people "morons" and shouting them down.

A forum is there for debate and differences in opinion are healthy but whether some of you realise it or not you are going to far with your castigation of some of the members when their opinions don't match your own.

Matt.

Sorry, had two jokes and couldn't decide between them, so, rather than make Sophie's Choice, I went with both.

I'll keeeeeeeeel you!
