NL: Dagenham v Torquay United 3pm 2nd May 2022

While we are completely out of the play off picture three of our final four games are against teams competing for promotion, a couple hoping we can perform and cause an upset to aid their cause.

Chesterfield, our next weeks opponents seem to have self imploded after the loss of Tishmanga and a few other key players. They face a wounded Stockport today and need a result today and next week.
D&R, todays opponents and the only realistic challengers to the top seven will be desperate to keep the ball rolling with a win today against a season weary Utd with only pride to play for.
A win for them and a loss for Chesterfield will close the gap to a single point.
Stockport, our final day opponents looked uncatchable a few games ago but now look vulnerable to Wrexham's late run and challenge and have now lost three of their last five.
Notts County another club on a wobble will be a bundle of nerves today but should be able to overcome the divisions whipping boys Dover though of late they have been putting in some spirited performances and will not be taken lightly.
With just one automatic place up for grabs I'm relieved were out of the picture and don't have to endure the agony of poor refereeing and another close call that shatters confidence and ruins preparations for the following season. We have a period where the manager can prepare properly for next seasons campaign. Just how many of our best core player will still be here is anyone's guess but GJ hinted that one or two are likely to be moving on. My guess its likely to be CLE, AL and JL who are attracting interest from rivals.
GJ also mentioned Marquee signings whatever that means as I haven't seen one of those since we signed the late Justin Fashanu 30 odd years ago! More likely the squad will be made up of our existing old heads and more youngsters with "promise" . Whatever GJ I feel has long been in the process of preparing for the worst with an exodus of players he wants to keep and speaking to a few that he would like to sign.
The player merry go round will continue and we will always be vulnerable to losing our best players when we have some success and why IMHO its highly unlikely we will ever really be able to build a successful squad good enough to escape this division and back to the football league.

A signing that requires intents negotiations.

Judging by past signings, could be anything from manky, to donkey to marquee! Perhaps he has lined up some signings from our neighbours up and down the road?

Hall’s race run. Felix on.

I would canvas opinion on that...

Reset and go again next season. This season was always going to be a mission impossible after we lost all our best players at the end of last season. Fingers crossed for those proverbial marquee signings.
