Just for entertainment I've checked and, yes, it's about 5 minutes in. i think they may have wanted to keep that item short so they lumped us in with Yeovil and Weymouth in a one line report.

It takes me back to the days of Westward TV and their biased Mickey Mouse coverage of our progress when we were in the same league as Argyle. On one occasion, when we beat them 2-1 at Home Park they didn't show any footage at all - I've always suspected that the cameraman had forgotten to take the lens cap off his camera.

Oddly, I thought we were really lucky to get away with a point in that game. County were better than us for at least an hour - and their fans called it one of the best performances of the season. (I mean, I didn't think it was a *brilliant* performance on their part, but they were decent, in my eyes)

Sutton aren't a team that is blowing everybody away - indeed, in their run to close that 12 point gap we had they were often squeaking through with late goals. They're a decent side, but against the 'bigger' clubs in this division they've not been that great. Notts County already won at their gaff, for example.

I don't know if County will win, but I'm more confident about them than I would be about Woking next week, who I fully expect to concede 3 goals in the first half before their manager comes out afterwards ands ays they deserved a point.

Another real Team Performance yesterday.

You can tell this group are for real when you see Scott Boden, Kyle Cameron and Danny Wright travelling with the team to support even when they knew they would not be playing.

I suspect the team travelled up on the day which makes the performance extra special.

i pray they can beat Sutton tomorrow but am not holding my breath.
Hartlepool could finish out of the top three, leaving Stockport to be in pole position for a home playoff semi final.
We are 5 points ahead of Stockport with four games to play.
Sutton are our main rivals, they need to drop two and preferribly three points.

Sutton can achieve a maximum of 90 points. We can get to 88. Stockport 83 and Hartlepool 82.
Really???? :rofl:

They travelled on Sunday and stayed overnight.
