That’s two games on the trot where we have chucked leads away. Really we should be done and dusted where relegation worries are concerned.

It seems teams around us have all stepped up to the plate when needed and sucked us right back into the battle. AL said he was expecting a reaction today. Did he get it ?

1 point gained today or two dropped ? Time will tell. One saving Grace is we now have back to back games at home. Though our home form is nothing to write home about.

I can't see how anyone can put a positive spin on the result today. AL asked for a reaction and it sounds as if he didn't get one.

Reality is that we should have had six points from our last two games, but have ended up with one.

Result is we are again fighting for NLN survival, when we should have our NLN status for next season all put to bed by now.

Lynn draw 1-1 away at Banbury.

It's getting very tight at the bottom.

Dear all,

Leading up to the Euro tournament in June this year, I am conducting some research looking at fans’ views towards the role of football in response to military conflict. For those interested in this topic, I have created a short survey that should not take up too much of your time: https://doit.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9zZmrJfShOSBDDw

Participation is completely voluntary, but I would appreciate hearing your thoughts on this topic.

Some interesting questions in this survey.

Sadly, I believe that many sports fans, not just football fans, don't care enough about such things as War and suffering of the World's population.

As long as money is pumped into their particular Sport or Club, at any level and irrespective of the source of such money, they are happy to go along with it.

Such is the craving for "success".

Banbury look almost certainly doomed for the drop after losing 2-1 at home to a nine man Hereford team tonight.

As Squire has said, this Saturday is critical but when you look at away fixtures where you should pick up all three points, I think it's fair to say this is one of them.
