They've drawn their last 6. Including Sutton, Torquay and Notts county.
Be ellish to get 3 points.

I'm going 1-1.

Armstrong, Mafuta.

100 fans (60 yr old blokes that have climbed over the wall at the back of the rink end because they have for 50 years and can't bare to miss this successful run).

Hope the exiles have got their disguises worked out for once they're in the ground.

Back in the day this game would have been considered an absolute banker for an X on the Littlewoods coupon. I'll go for Pools to buck the trend and nick it 1-0. Armstrong.

Disguises? Why would you need a disguise when Boreham Wood don't even have fans at the best of times?

think they,ll be a bit like dagenham were. a better team than their league position suggests where too many draws have really pushed them out of the play off race. hate draws myself but would take a point now. a banana skin type of a game for me. lot may depend with both sides on their line ups and who if any will have picked up a knock on friday or have not recovered yet.

It'll be either

1-0
0-0
0-1

Or I could be totally wrong again. UTP!!!

Killip looks really shaken up from collision so they're bound to put him under a lot of pressure.

Cass gives the ball away and Killip not prepared to dive on his right hand side because his arm is knackered. Think we're screwed in this one.

Not looking good for Killip, maybe should have had a Keeper on the bench especially after not needing one for so long and the odds shorten every game that we might need one.

Theyve had 2 chances and scored both and are bossing it according to the commentators. Hardly but they look like a decent side on their pitch. We need to get teh ball to stick up top if we can. I'd take a draw from here.

Played them off the park second half - they didn't manage a shot or a header towards Oates. A draw is the least Pools deserved.

A bit of everything there.
Abysmal livestream.
Watched game on 50 inch TV but could just to say pick the ball out which looked like a ping pong ball.
Commentators talking absolute shite for 90 mins.
Arseholes.

Happy with a point afta goin behind twice.
Anutha Killip blunder for there 2nd goal.
Injury will obviously be smokescreened as an excuse.

Massive game next week.
Onwards n upwards.

UTP.

I'd wait to see how badly he's done his arm before saying that. I reckon he'd have been taken off straight off after the collision if Ravas had been on the bench. As it was, he was subbed as soon as they scored because even an outfield player in goal is more use than a one armed keeper.

Well done Pools. Great point considering going behind so early and the Killip injury. Pleased to see Holohan finding his scoring touch again but still seems to be missing those cutting runs. Pleased for Bennett getting his goal and for Oate's positioning and keeping them out. There are slight shades here of Rushden and Diamonds and maybe a shoot out again on the last day. Sutton seem not to score but Torquay keep stealing late and injury time goals. The games in hand of course are a worry but they have to be won. Notts County appear to be the danger team here to Pools so next Saturday its crucial we do the double over them. I might have this wrong but I have this sneaky feeling that Luke Armstrong will be recalled and DC had that in mind when he signed big Bennett. In which case it would be obvious for Mason Bloomfield to step in. The big lad deserves to be in the team for longer periods as others have suggested on here. A lot here is going to depend on Killip's injury because if "Gravas" as those Boring Wood commentators called him gets injured as well. Yes, where is Ken Simpkins?
And what's happened to Claudio Offosu? Mighty glad that Gus Mafuta had a quiet game. And some save from their porky keeper. All in all satisfied to get away with a point all matters considering.

You wouldnt want to go in rainy season that's for sure. I'm organising a 9 seat minibus tour for September. Pick up in Greatham and Borehamwood on the way. 37 day tour with three full nights in Rwanda. Four and a half grand including your covid passport. There's never been a better time to visit. PM me your name, address, bank account details and three digit security number which I need for insurance details as you'll have to share the driving. Petrol is on top mind.

One of the premiershit teams has 'Visit Rwanda' right round the pitch on the advert hoardings. I think it's arsenal so might be the tie up as don't their reserves or ladies team play at Meadow Park (borehamwood).

Still wound't want to go there.

I don’t see Salford recalling Armstrong at all. Deal has been extended to the end of the season. Their season nearly finished - even if they clinch play-offs it’s not like they need him.

Bennet almost certainly going back by the end of April though. A deal I still can’t wrap my head around.
