POTM, by a country mile. Genius.

1) If rain is forecast , don't bother trying to cover the pitch so it is the only game in the country waterlogged.

2) With the game postponed, ensure players have time to recover.

3) Reorganise it quickly on a weekday evening to maximise the inconvenience to travelling fans (they can't afford/take time off work to come down twice in 4 days).

4) to further limit fan numbers , stop ticket sales and close the away supporters stand

this provided me with a great laugh today! haha you need to stop being so bitter, you'll stay up anyway

I do hope not, but I fear they might, with Wombles taking their place.

I've always liked Barnet for some strange reason, and I do hope they stay up.

I liked the sandwiches available outside. Now they're gone, Barnet are just another team. Probably don't deserve League football though, the idea is to progress, not bump along the bottom of the division year after year.

If we had our game delayed by 15 minutes because of crowd congestion the Barnet conspiracy theorists would have had a field day..........we of course are above that sort of thing!

You don't need used fivers. Just slip em a few used condoms. Half a dozen Micky fins and some definatly dodgy pills. No not them. I was more thinking senna. or liquid lactulose. I mean for goodness sake. Look at how Rovers would play. Their passing would suddenly become the slickest in the league.

True, but you always have those teams who avoid the drop year after year.

And none of them deserve to be in the division in which they find themselves either. The idea, as I say, is to progress, and Barnet have not done that. It can't be any fun for their fans, losing 2 weeks in 3, being down the bottom, getting almost no one through the door, watching their "team" consist of one guy and a bunch on Non-League no hopers (see Davids this year and McLeod the year before, to name but two). Sure, it's exciting being down the bottom, but it's much more exciting if it's interspersed with challenges at the top. Just as it was good fun being in the Conference for a couple of years, winning loads of games, visiting some interesting new places, meeting nice new people, great, but I don't want to go back thanks.
Barnet need to go down, to start again in a division in which they stand a chance of competing. It's no good entering a Karting Jr into F1, because after 5 races of coming last by 25 laps, he's going to get fed up and set on a downward spiral of doom. Equally, it's no good having Barnet in the League, because they can't hack it. A couple of years of being down the bottom, fine, that happens during the rebuilding process, but this is about 6 or 7 years now of just doing absolutely nothing.
Nope, I'm very much afraid that the Conference is their level and the sooner they end up there, the better off they'll be. I'm sure a bunch of their lot will disagree, but some (those who actually think about what they're doing, rather than those who just think that higher division equals better) will see the sense in my statement and agree (I hope).

Seems they might need to employ better "spies" in the future.

As I was saying.

Message to Barnet: Perhaps the scouting report which you conveniently left in the dressing room and said we were a side whose confidence was 'shot to pieces and certs to go down' could have been more applicable closer to home. It's a terrible thing being relegated to non-league but I can't say given there accusations and antics of last week I have much sympathy - enjoy Brackley.... UTG
