Given we should now take second place we will travel to donny in the playoffs with the winner going to the final and loser playing the winners of the 3rd to 6th playoff,most likely to be barrow. The winners would then play donny in the final. Correct me of I'm wrong but thats how i see it.

Championships are won at the back end of the season aren't they? It's how you finish, how strong and healthy your roster is and how your form is. Playoffs can be a lottery , and home advantage is crucial. Unfortunately for us were struggling for 17 , and if our dualreg can't play... Wonder who's behind Gus!

So name our team for the play-offs and see how different it could be? No dual reg players, only Dave petersen if available, Miller probably suspended and possible one or two others, Matty still unfit. Have we got 13, never mind 17?

Matty might be fit for gateshead. Carter should be bak for playoffs. we could have peterson back and miller hasnt neen found guilty yet and even if banned will still probably feature in playoffs

Rochdale and Scorpions match last week had a brawl and the ref sent 5 from each team off but they looked at the whole incident. Players can be picked out from this by the review panel and face charges, etc, so we don't know the full extent of this incident today. The players from last weeks brawl if they take an early guilty plea don't start their sentences until after 21st August so a two match ban for our lads would mean not playing in the first play-off match which looks likely to be Doncaster away!!!!

Even with Brett Carter and Matty back I still think we will struggle for a team!!

If the teams finish Donny, Town, Barrow then we will be away to Donny. Barrow will be home to 6th team and Haven home to 5th team. The 2 winners from them matches then have to play each other and the winner of that has to travel to play the loser of our match with Donny. So, it may not be Barrow at home?

The missing players is frustrating isn't it coz after watching that tv game I really really fancied going back to Donny . There nowt special but it's who gets their players on the paddock.

Barrow will host the jampots I.M.O then travel to DP after comfortably beating them
