So after all the near excitement last week when somebody got the information wrong we go into the final weekend with another "MUST WIN" game and then its a case of hope that Wycombe ,of all teams, or Stevenage can do us a favour. In the worst case scenario it's into the Play Offs we go. What a season it has been and whatever the outcome most of us would have jumped at the chance to be in the Play Offs.
For me and I expect a lot of others the weekend starts tomorrow at the Tote End reunion and I imagine its going to be a great atmosphere there as it was the last one I went to which was the night before that fateful Saturday against Mansfield. I remember that night when most people thought we would defin itely stay up.
As regards Team selection I would certainly be delighted if it is an unchanged team and we take the game to Dagenham.
Whatever the outcome it is certainly a great time to be a Gashead and roll on Saturday. Hopefully our last game!!

Unchanged starting XI as per York please (though we have options up front if MT is carrying an injury or Gaffers does another Matt Harrold impression). Important thing is to get on the front foot, attack, and score early. Gasheads to lift the roof and intimidate the opposition. As we know news of goals scored filters through very quickly these days. Accrington and Oxford will know if we go a goal up and that will add to their nervousness. 2 years ago news filtered through that WW were winning at Torquay and... well let's not go there. COYBs. UTG.

I think Accy will slip up, they have a full house and suddenly expectancy will be upon them whereas up to now most of them were happy to be in the play offs.
An early goal for us could go either way, either spur them on or make them panic, lets hope we do and its the latter.

I hope that you are right about Accrington but I think that Crooks and Windass will play out of their skins as it will be their final game if they are promoted. Maybe Oxford will slip up,but Rovers still have to win anyway. I think it will be Wimbledon away next Saturday for Rovers,time for a good day in London before the match.

I think Crooks may be injured, he has been recently but this doesn't seem to have had any impact in our favour.
Oxfords suspect home form is the only hope I have in that game, although Wycombe don't score so can only hope for a 0-0 which is unlikely given Oxfords scoring prowess.
We have come from behind to win 5 times this season so if we do go one down I hope we react the best way and get behind them, because whatever happens they have given us a great exciting season after years of drivel.

Feeling quite optimistic. We have all to gain tomorrow, just need to keep positive! I almost wish we could set up a signal interceptor and block all news of the other games! Will be a fair few glued to mobiles tomorrow! I have my BBC alerts for the other teams, so will be trying to avoid looking until i get the notifications! Last week was horrible getting the false information, no repeats please!

On BBC North West Tonight, Accrington manager John Coleman has just said that, for him, Accrington finishing second is "like winning a Formula One race on a bike".
You haven't finished second yet, John!
