Don't worry about Fylde. Don't worry about Lowestoft. Just play for the win. It's in our own hands - let's do it!

Just hope we do it. Come on Barrow- go and finish it off in style. 6 up after 85 minutes might settle me a little bit listening in.

Thinking of little else this week. Is it only Wednesday?

Minor point of pedantry: a draw is no use to us in any circumstances - if Fylde draw/lose we are champions regardless.
Sorry, but if we draw, we finish up on 85 points, if AFC Fylde draw, they end up with 83, and we are champions. If Fylde lose, they stay on 82, and we are champions. If Fylde win, they finish on 85 points, and they are champions. Or have I misinterpreted your comment?

What he means is there is no scenario where a draw would see us win the league but a loss wouldn't.

If fylde win we have to win, if fylde don't win then it's over anyway.

But there is, if we draw, and so do Fylde, then we are champions, same applies if they lose.

Yeah but in those two instances, we can lose and still be champions so the draw itself is irrelevant?
