Just had a quick glance down at the abyss (haven’t paid any attention to it this season).
Looks like Barrow are pulling away a bit, 4 points clear at the top with a game in hand. But surprising as I don’t remember them being anything special last season. Certainly an away trip I will not be looking forward to if they come up.
Play-off spots currently occupied by Harrogate, Halifax, Yeovil, Boreham Wood, Solihull and Bromley.
If I had to pick I’d prefer it to be Harrogate who come up, although to be honest none of them are particularly appealing away trips. Harrogate probably the most appetising. Absolutely do not want Bromley or Boreham Wood to come up (horrid places and nasty clubs). Wouldn’t be too thrilled about Solihull either.
Notts County sitting in 8th would be my top choice for who I’d want to come up. No way that club should be in non-league. Feel sorry for their fans.
Sad to see Chesterfield in the relegation zone. Wrexham not safe either. Surprised to see Fylde down in 22nd to. Thought they’d be another play-off team this season.
Also had a look above at League 1. Pretty certain that Bolton will be coming down, along with Southend.
The third spot is between Tranmere and Wimbledon. All four are decent away days.

If the funds are available and within the budgets set, if I were involved I would be having a serious think about Kabongo Tshimanga at Boreham Wood. This season and last hes hitting 1 in 2, is 5ft 11" is good in the box, quick and at 22 has plenty of development and resale value in there if he can kick on.

I’m really surprised to see Fylde in relegation trouble . I thought they would walk that league this year with Orient and Salford out of the way . I wonder what’s gone wrong at that club

Not surprised that Fylde are struggling they did what we usually do and sold their top scorer. He scored against us at Wembley and I think he scored most of their goals before he moved.

My only guess is they have money problems.

Barnet are my pick to make a surge and get up in the playoffs.

Harrogate and Bromley cannot get promoted as they have 3G pitches and the EFL do not allow these surfaces in the league.

Harrogate will lay turf if they gain promotion.

I wouldnt worry about Bromley
Snotty C*nts have 2 games in hand & a point behind.
I expect Hartlepool to push on now with Challinor experienced in
an end of season surge the last few.seasons.

He didn't score as many as usual this year, there is something seriously wrong at the club to be in the position they are.

We lost only seven games last season when we won the National League and every team has lost more than that already this season. It looks like Barrow's title to lose although it will be squeaky bum time soon, that will sort the men out from the boys.

Bromley will go for a turf pitch as well.
