Chorley v Boston United would've been best case scenario for a play off final.
I thought it was us that were the mingling club Matty ;) Or was that just Saturday :)

None of you comprehend that the small boys from the Fylde coast BEAT you twice this season?

Your hoof ball tactics may have got you so far, but you'll be coming back down next season, if you ever actually want to watch a proper game of football come to KP!

C'mon now...you can do better than that. Talk about RETRO!

That used to be heard ringing round Old Trafford centuries ago. You could even buy T-Shirts with a pic of Paul Scholes banging one in against the Scoucers.

Why not try selling Your Own next season?...It could ease the blow of having to spend another season in Conference North :lol:

Yep, well played Fylde, you had a good season... just not good enough :-)

Honestly believe you'll spunk the playoffs now as well, too much effort gone into trying to catch us up, must have been heartbreaking to have had it in the bag at xmas only to implode when the pressure built... couldn't cope with being at the top I'm afraid...

Interesting to see what happens next year when/if you're still in Conf North...

Thread looks a wind-up but nevertheless one thing where we are way better than them is that we have some class while they have none.
Their chairman has zero disregard for fans - smoking in the stand when he isn't meant to, not having the required facilities at their ground - injured Tamworth fan had to be carried on a ladder amongst many of the things they were too arrogant to bother with.
In addition the way their players behaved up here after the game on NY Day was terrible. Strutting round the bar as though they owned the place, pushing fans out of the way and gobbing off. My mate from down south who was here hoped we win the title just because of their behaviour. Shame as most of their fans seem OK.
Class tells in the end.

We will never even get a chance of revenge because we'll never play them again.

Not seen it mentioned elsewhere but RC were saying that the dueling last games of the season that start on the exact time for obvious reasons as not to give any one an advantage, well surprise, surprise, AFC suddenly discovered a hole in one of the nets & it took a while to find the material to fix it, make of that what you will.

That's settled it then, definitely a windup.

Nice wind up.

Just lucky that Fylde played Barrow at our weakest point of the season with lots of players out injured, if you had played us at any other time. Like many of your fans have said you've had a good season well above expectations, but helped along with a bit more luck then you think. BTW The keeper that played on those games has been released, good keeper just not good enough to go up like Fylde.

As I type Guiseley take the lead 1-0, a team that Fylde have failed to beat this season break the deadlock in their play-off game (Guiseley commentary describing it as head tennis with little quality).

Fylde don't have a good record against any of the sides in the play-offs, with only 1 win against an unprepared Boston getting off the bus late. Doesn't look good for promotion.

Its very easy to bribe the officials to play spaz teams like Colehall or whatever Sunday league sides (and Stuckport) you beat to get this far....its probably just as easy to bribe the officials to fix the draw to give you minnows one last pay day.

Hope you have evidence to back up your claims... On to the next "spaz" team in Barrow!
