The Board will feel that – in the end – finishing second and being a mere kick or two away from the Play Off final is a more than reasonable achievement during what has been a very dramatic season off the field and around the club. Dean will be given another season at the helm.

Sadly i can see this happening ..

This all depends,of course, if the Elliott-Dean Bromance can pass the next board meeting..

Im sure Mr Elliot will be lobbying for JD to be given more time ..

Is Keith Hill still out there ????

We looked a poor team yesterday.
Seemed to be only Clunan in midfield.
Left side was totally non existent.
Beestin completely wasted on the left.
Bench was truly awful compared to there’s.

Best team won.

Totally agree

Totally disjointed line up and performance.

Corbett has looked great with Whall he was missed and why waste a sub space on Langley was Fitz carrying an injury ? ..i thought maybe being 6’8 Langley was jds shoot out secret weapon alas NO.

[ironfromafar]

When Hilton brought in JD his mandate was promotion or bust .. he is a really nice guy passionate about the club and fans but he failed so he should go.

IMO next season will be harder than this and with a whole new squad and JDs replacement needs to be brought in ASAP ..IF its gonna happen at all.

Any Ironbru members got any names of his replacement ??? my memory keeps drifting back the Admiral Nelson but im sure there are numerous others out there who would consider the challenge.

No the final will be at Brackley or Chorley. Both finished higher in the league than Boston.

Neither will be as soft a touch as we were.

Nowt ner truer than that MK .. a low level performance in many ways from the team sheet coming out to the last pen .. so sad on such a big occasion.

[ironfromafar]

Boston were the better side on the day… more chances and were always gonna win if went to pens .. Scunny just didnt turn up on the big occasion AGAIN

Thanks TJO .. i can get to that page no problem but once there its not showing any game info to click on just a black panel with LISTEN TO NON LEAGUE COMMENTARIES ..this is how i missed the Gloucester game.

Bloody typical the game coincides with my private jet getting resprayed claret n blue

[ironfromafar]

The internet is crap where i am ..PLEASE can anyone send me the link for the commentary today. its been a nightmare getting last couple of games (Blyth was just ok after a while but could not get a squeak Gloucester away at all) dont wanna miss this one.

Im getting to the BBC RH page but its not showing a game menu to choose from.

TIA

Sounds to me like its gonna be chaos due to these road closures, as mentioned earlier for 99% of fans it will be fine alas the 1% of testosterone bubbling drunks from both sides can and probably will cause issiues (especially after final whistle) if fans are allowed to mix openly on a trudge back to their cars.
Could well see the Boston fans being held back which may cause more irritation depending on the final score.
Many moons ago i lived in Gunness and walked down the A18 for home games at GP .. before that thumbed it into to town early morning for a few beers before games at TOSG…nowadays i would use my helicopter !!

Seems odd having the band on so late with the club advising fans to go in the ground early The Dominos should be on 12 noon IMO.

[ironfromafar]

written in the stars , why so worried ..after a lazy 45 mins and 45 mins trying to break em down its 1-1 90 mins … Boston will win on pens anyway .. 4-2 cos i believe we will bottle it ..

UNLESS OF COURSE YOU KNOW DIFFERENT ??????

[ironfromafar]

Noted the Chorley v Curzon game also ended 0-0 and went to pens … theres a theme forming here that needs breaking this Saturday.

I think Beestin will play but hopefully not at left back.

McAlinden will play their I expect. Scales will likely be the one to make way for Beestin. It would be Clunan if I was picking the team.

MKI … I was torn between Beestin and Law / Scales so if Mcalinden plays left back add Beestin to my bench or start Beestin for ???? … some tough decisions for JD knowing honestly his job is on the line over the next 1 possibly 2 fixtures.

[ironfromafar]

Im going for 2-1 also Rene .. but to Boston.

The hand of god goal and Lampards goal against Germany i think are obvious notables for VAR but the game got along just fine before VAR was introduced and has it stopped bad refereeing decisions and dodgy goals NOT REALLY..

Im all for goal line tech but for me VAR offers few positives and is spoiling the game on numerous fronts.

I VOTE SCRAP IT

[ironfromafar]

there was nowt wrong with the game ..

VAR is Shit

Shame for the fans? What fans? 500 die-hards?

Metropolitan Borough of Gateshead has a population of around 200,000 yet home attendances are between 600 and 1,000. 879 v Chesterfield earlier this month. Hello!

So only 0.5% of the population can be arsed to go along. They’re all Mags anyway. Sooner pull on their black and white striped shirts and spend Saturday afternoon in the pub than pay to go to the International Stadium.

Proper Mickey Mouse club!

Thats bad comment (maybe a tad bias i dont know) Gateshead obviously have a way better football team than most in the league above the mighty Iron .. as a football team they deserve the right to progress regardless how many fans they have ..

Boo Boo the local Council.. who ever it iz

twas indeed a blooming awful pass by Butterfeild

[ironfromafar]

If only that Coventry player took a size 8 boot instead of 9 .. Man U very very lucky thanks to VAR.

Reading what the Notts Forest boss said the ref yesterday is a Luton fan :) and having watched the incidents he mentioned it appears Forest were stitched up like a kipper.

Sheffield Utd came out against it, so it’s not all.

Possibly cos being a yoyo club whose string has broken they may well be in L1 within the next few seasons.

Dear Marjorie

i dont want to sound like a doom n gloom ball bag but i honestly do not have a good feeling about these play offs , cant say why im not as optimistic as most other fans seem to be… i dont think there are any favourites in these types of winner takes all fixtures as the Cods proved getting out the NL as they did.

It really would be a fantastic way to end a roller coaster few months when the club so so close to being gone but dark thoughts re inconsistent spells strange tactics , the old chestnut about us not turning up for big games AND TERRIBLE OFFICIALS are swaying me to predict it wont be our year despite being at GPAA… OBVIOUSLY I HOPE IM WRONG

Basically ITS A LOTTERY and we have one of 6 willy wonka tickets.

Yours Worried Iron fan

I think the kick would have been retaken if Elliott hadn’t scored. Keeper almost halfway to Elliott when he took it!
Defenders reaction when he clearly fouled Pugh was amusing.

a tin pot cup Cass but yes but whose to say the ref is not a dick like SMT ?? the keeper was ridicously off his line almost pub league like
