United travel to North London to meet rock bottom Barnet who to date have lost 6 of their 9 Home games scoring 5 and conceding 17.
Twice Barnet recently have conceded late goals in narrow 2-1 defeats at Home to Stockport County and Altrincham so they will be no pushover.
I still expect United to win and I am going 3-1 after our two goalless draws with Notts County and Sutton.

Thieving bastards are charging £12-50 for the stream.

If my calculation is correct, we have up to ten players suspended or injured. Hall, Moxey, Wynter, Davis, Wright, Warren, Kerr, Nelson, Buse and Lucas. That is a team in itself, so credit the club with its support and the team being top.

I would guess today we play three at the back, pack the midfield and play who up front. . . That will be interesting, who leads the line today, this may tell us a lot about Gary's thinking.

Not wanting to tempt fate, but I don't think it will matter....
Barnet are that bad defensively.

They will raise their game today though but so must we and we must be back to our best creating and taking chances
I'd like to see Hall back but rather he played Tuesday as he's not likely to play both.

Looking at the highlights of their defeat on Tuesday their defence is shocking but I've been supporting Torquay for far too long to think that we will just turn up and win.

If we play as well as we can we should win but I wouldn't take anything for granted - theres more pressure on us today so anything can happen.

Forgetting the euphemisms of banana skins etc, to be considered genuine promotion material this is a game we must win and win comfortably, if nothing more than for our confidence to get back to winning ways, Barnet have won only once at home all season and concede on average three goals a game.I realise we have a shed full of players out but we still have enough class not to be using that as an excuse.

Just purchased the stream despite seeing several accounts of fans having problems with their service. One of the more tedious processes and wanting a little too much personal information for a streaming service.

Hopefully it'll be worth the £12.50 and allow me to watch us attempt to take another 3 points on the road.

Just tuned in to Radio Devon’s commentary.
I think he must be broadcasting from his phone in the top pocket of his anorak sat in the dug out.
Think I’ll check the score out later.
Couldn’t be more different from the last Barnet home game against the mighty gulls on that blistering bank holiday back in 2019 when we played like football’s version of the Harlem globetrotters in the first half only to totally run out of puff in the second.
Always first fixture in the book for me and my Barnet supporting mate. Shame, although looking out the window I’m better off here.

Not impressed with this performance. We need to step it up or there could be a sucker punch. Little very poor. Put Randell back in there and Andrews left back.

We need to play around them more than we are.

Firstly the coverage is first class. Sadly our performance is second class, but we are leading. A number of players need to step it up, our throwings have been very poor and the hold up play from the front line is non-existent.

Come on guys, time to step it up.
