Chelmsford will also be buoyed by this result making a potentially hard game on Saturday even harder!

Well one point out of the last nine available is some collapse in form.

We will have to play well on Saturday because Chelmsford are on a great run.

A lot of rain in Teignmouth tonight so I think it will be a mud bath on Saturday if the game is on.

However we seem to float across the pitch at present and it really does not seem to bother the team. COYY.

The Gary Johnson Effect will mean they will be well prepared for a tough game and told in no uncertain terms that the Woking result means nothing. ;-) Should be a good game between two good teams who have won 7 of their last 8. Hope there’s a good crowd.

Dartford tonight have turned the whole season upside down, even the bookies can’t recalculate the outright options. It’s a great result tonight,but only if we can beat Chelmsford on Saturday as Woking have yet another home match against east Thurrock.

My main concern is will the game be on with the forecast for Friday. Plenty of wind which may help
but that water will struggle to disappear with the state of the surface. Hope they have managed to get the verti drain machine on it and can cover the worst areas

Grounds man said pitch can cope with any amount of rain up to 6 hours before kick off.

Not too worried about Woking anymore, I think they have gone off the boil, Dowse, the manager has a weekly you tube segment on Fridays and after the comments he made at the end of January about his useless team I cannot see them wanting to walk over hot coals for him, if you can understand what he says or you have a Geordie translator to hand he basically said his team were spineless, useless and had the wrong mentality, comments which may be accurate but kept for the changing room behind closed doors.

Culmstock Gull is right. Woking are an irrelevance. I have been saying for ages, and put it on BTPIR, that we are going to win this league, we are far too strong and Woking will blow up. The state of the pitch is also an irrelevance. Some our best football has been played on porridge surfaces, both home and away. We are the pro's, we are fitter than these part timers, and such pitches favour us massively. Never have I been so confident that we are going to be Champions. We will win 4-1 on Saturday.

Well, I am not writing off Woking just because of a poor run of form. They are still very strong and have a lot of points of the table, plus they more than most have the ability to improve their squad.

We just have to focus on winning ourselves but cannot take the foot off of the gas as the pendulum can very quickly swing back in their favour - we're not 10 points clear or anything crazy so lets keep grounded.
