its a bit late now but i,ll put it up if only to see how close people think the result will be. going for an easy 2-1 to them with it being manny d turn to be sick before the game.

3-1 Heed our goal JG outplayed from the start with huge early pressure and a goal or 2 conceded within 20 mins.

Pools will try to defend but wont be good enough. Probably hold out for a while but will go down 2-0 not having had a shot on target.

if we do lose i just prey we do not score first as its going to be bloody boring on here after the game for days on end until it happens with halifax next.

2-1 heed

if we could rely on getting a few more points i,d actually like us to get a hammering so there is no papering over the cracks and KP knows for a certain who to show the door to at the end of the season if he,s undecided on a few. can learn about the character of a player more in a heavy defeat than a win would.

Going to buck the trend. 0-2

Away stand now completely sold out so going to be a good following.
Hopefully the team turns up as well !

2/0 loss

think we may get a goal against them but cant see us winning unfortunately - 3-1 to them

Highly doubt that holds about 3000 plus. We had only sold 850 yesterday.

3-0 Gateshead got a bad feelung about this game.

We’ll see….l

Haven't got a scooby do about tonite.
But got major respect to how a club with 1200 followers shows very high ambitions.
And good luck to them after tonite.

OOOOOPS I forgot we were playing tonight!

We will concede just dread to think how many.

Their last two crowds have been 800, can you imagine if we got crowds like that? The first excuse out of the hat would be we cant compete with these teams. Now the boots on the other foot the excuse is ah but attendances dont mean much nowadays.

second excuse would be that the club is closing down due to lack of interest from the fans.

5 at back and Cooke dropped--looks like he has picked a side to sit in and compete--fairplay to him for going horses for courses

They also ain't bankrolled like Spennymoor.
A few on here try to belittle them when there manager went to MK Don's.
Maybe they get the best refs and are very lucky.

they must be getting money from somewhere though as it aint on match receipts.

2-0 to them

Get in !!
Good reward for great start--excellent goal from Grey who looks better every game---really kepy copmposure well

I'm wrong already

Play offs back on.
Surely no more sitting back on a slender lead!
UTP.

Grey puts us ahead. Always great to go a goal up. My memory isnt what it was but am I right in thinking that if Grey scores the first goal we lose or draw?

Sitting back? Hmm. Probably do ok in first half but not score a second and then play like fannies in the second half. Hope I'm wrong.

Heed have goal disallowed for off side.

Doing well so far But Gateshead getting back into it, new lad at Right wing back v tentative

1-1 clear pen, no complaints

Edit

all Gateshead now unfortunately--Feather and the new RB are passengers at th minute

Seems like this only going one way which most of us predicted. Just a bit of a shock us taking the lead. Pools eh. Give you hope and then whip it away.

good first 15 but very sobering after that--they are so much better in terms of passing movement coaching etc...

always hope when its still 1-1

Needs to get the RB off another midfielder on and play nicky as a holding midfielder.

PS that RB is crap

Just waiting to lose this. Who on earth is our right back? Has someone jumped on the pitch impersonating a footballer.

as Ozzy says about what we expected after first 15, pools digging in which is all they can do

Decent start,then the usual sitting back & letting Hees get well into out half,before trying to stop them.
Loads of balls getting played to Heeds overlapping RB because of it,who got plenty of crosses in.

thats why he has not been getting a game.

We really need to wake up in the second half. Fergie is horribly exposed at the back - several times he's been defending against two Heed players. Our midfield is none existent because they're standing just outside of our penalty area defending (Crawford and Feaths have hardly been in Gatesheads half). We need to stop standing off and letting them come at us and get the bastard ball and do something with it. Jameson had a good first half and was about a cm from saving the Pen. The new lad playing at RB is all over the place (and not in a good way).

even their commentator noticed fergy,s plight. agyamang started down that side but seems to have wondered away from it.

Spot on

and within a minute 2-1 down ffs

wonder if Phillips is still looking up and not down the table, and wonder if Raj has anything to say ...

Pathetic. Tactics from our manager our from home are so worrying. Whats he waiting for? The inevitable?

He isnt the answer is he---I can see Raj binning him before season end (not that hes had a much of a chance) then the usual excuses while we fanny about getting someone else in and make last minute signings.

3-1 now they are battering us

congrats to everyone assoicated with this shit show over the last 2 years

Everyone who was watching could see what was coming. Tactics didnt work at woking, they didnt work at Eastleigh so lets sit back all game against a side that likes having possesion, pathetic management im afraid and looks way out of his depth tonight.

the gulf here is truly eye watering.

We get the ball, punt it long, then just sit back as gatsehead pass through us---on repeat--very one sided

4-1

This could end up 7 or 8 -- just pathetic all round

Blimey!!!
