Not far away from the inevitable "We'll walk the conference" from Wobblers supporters. What they don't realise if they go down, the sh*t has only just begun, can't wait to see them lose at Alfreton or Braintree :lol:

Stockport will be on such a massive high going into their game against the Wobbs :mrgreen:

I have heard most fans believe if they go down they will do a Mansfield/Wrexham/Cambridge/York/Luton and not return.. Interestingly, Rushden weren't mentioned. haha

We don't get a mention because we're not a "proper" League side, we just flirted with it for a few years until the money ran out. I often wonder what might of happened had we managed to stay up in League 1 the year Max pulled out - things might have been so different.

Whilst its a great laugh wallowing in our near neighbours pain (both of them :D ) lets not forget we have our own problems to worry about and the last laugh may be theirs.

I still think out of the 3 games they have left the Knobblers will get enough points to survive, they'll probably do it against Stockport, much as it pains me to say it.......but I live in hope, it'd be great to see them down here next season, providing we're still here of course.

Monday will be key. I wouldn't write off Stockport to record the result we want, their win today will have them buzzing (although I feel they are down regardless).

I believe that if come the end of Monday they are in that relegation place, they'll go down.

Quite right Jim.

The gme at Stockport is one of the biggest in cobs history but I think they'll get a result there and be safe.

However, it is closer to home that we should be concerned with. No Conference Board decision yet - why? Administration rumours still flying around - and will the players be paid on time this week?

With respect Chris I am still very much aware of our own problems and I am worried but this thread is a useful distraction to have, which is needed from time to time. I still maintain that their relegation would benefit us if we can sort ourselves out in the immediate short term.
