    Power to score? Love your humour. More chance of the ball Sheehan kicked into the stratosphere about 10 years ago coming back down to earth and landing in the back of the net.

    I've seen worse players grab a kak goal over the years so I've wasted a tenner on it.
    88/1.
    Odds are falling like a stone. People are catching on and I guarantee it'll be 2/1 on by 2.59pm

    bookies must know something I don't.
    Mullin and Wheatley favourites for first goal?

    I feel strangely calm about today. I’m thinking back to games like Barnsley away (96th minute equaliser), Reading away (1-0 up in the 90th minute but still lost), Peterborough away (90th minute equaliser), our weird and weak starting XI away at Wimbledon, not turning up at Wigan away, rueing the fact we could have easily been 3-0 up at Orient and Burton but still managed to lose.

    If we lose today, it’s not down to what happens today, it’s all these other games.

    But whatever happens we’ve had a great season - lots of games stick in the memory for the right reasons. Let’s hope we can really make it a season to remember!

    Are we all ready for this afternoons City roller coaster? We are going to do this! No ifs or buts. We have a good team and bucket load of mental strength.

    He's certainly due one! I remember Karl Goddard popping up with what I believe was his first and only goal in the Boro play off game at VP. Strange things can happen at thi point in the season.

    Apart from our own result the only other we need to be watching is Bolton Vs Luton anything but a Luton win we're in a play off place, even if we lose, Alexander will have the lads focusing on one thing and one thing only our result.
    Yes we'll all have butterflies in our stomach that a part of being a football fan, get a few bottles in and try to enjoy the game, CTID.

    As long as we're not losing, there's no need to care about what's happening elsewhere.

    Can’t wait for the wrong info to circulate round the crowd about Orient going behind.

    Happens every last day.

    Strange things usually occur on the last day. We’ve seen it already with York and Rochdale this season. It would have to go terribly wrong for us today but I think our lads will get the job done.

    I can just feel it in my old creaky bones that today is the start of a new era at the club. Smash Exeter into submission-win at Wembley and get back to where we truly belong.

    I know. Started drinking far too early today hic.

    Not enough understanding at the lower level. That's why goalscorer bets CAN be decent odds

    what happens with your bet if your player isn’t on the pitch when the first goal is scored eg not picked or on the subs bench?

    I hope Sky don’t bugger it up by having live scores on the screen …..That would do my bloody head in .

    I’ve done it now , haven’t I?

    pretty sure most of us would have Jackson and Humphry as favourites in front of two players who are unlikely to start

    Remember Stevenage v Wigan could be another lifeline, a draw there would be good enough for us ...
