Too close to call?

[Iron Webbo]

Morning one and all. The draw was not a bad result for you and I hear you could have won it in the end.

 

Yeading's home and away battle with Leyton looks tough, but so does your five games in the last 14 days.

 

Still fancy you tho. Good luck with your last six games.

[paulc27]

well, from i saw of Yeading on saturday I cannot see them winning all of their remaining games. Just so long as we do our bit I really think we will be ok. We have some tough games to go with Worthing away looking like a tricky one. There are no easy games for anyone now.

your boys need a few wins otherwise that playoff place that looked assured could be sliding away from you. Eastleigh away next saturday will be a big one for you.

Cant really see that happening, i think Braintree will get the play off place, but Eastleigh is a big game.

[Iron Webbo]

Yep, Eastleigh is a big one for us, but then they all are now eh?

 

Your form of late is superb. Don't get me wrong - I'm not delighted about it, but I'm man enough to know a good side when I see one and wish you well.

 

How did Yeading conduct themselves on Saturday?

[extaffyjim]

Like the bunch of thugs that they are quite frankly.

[Iron Webbo]

Cardiff, explain?

[extaffyjim]

Read the match report thread, stuff about them starting the brawl. Preddie jumping out of the stand to join in with it. Also lets just say they have a 'physical' style of play.

[The Town Crier]

Breif decription of the Yeading antics is on the Ricay-Yeading Thread.

 

An act of vandalism was found in the officials changing room too, they (Yeading)suggested it might have been the ref..

 

We also had a car window smashed.

 

Nice Club Yeading!

[GazzaBTFC]

Nice club...like a bunch of petulent children when the going gets tough and they don't get their way, they have to damage other peoples property...

 

So they suggested it was the ref? What pricks!!!

 

What was damaged TC?

[Barry Proudfoot]

Will we be reporting them to the league?

[GazzaBTFC]

I think we should...

 

But they appear to be the darlings of the Ryman officials....

They cant say it was their supporters either, as everyone knows they dont have any

[Iron Webbo]

I am genuinely surprised. From their point of view the draw wasn't a bad result was it? So why all the anger.

 

Perhaps you Ricay boys are starting to get under their skin?

Not the sort of behaviour that is expected of a civil servant! Wonder if his bosses know! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Yeading are a best priced 1-3, You can still get 4-1 against us. I think Yeading should still be favs as they have the three point advantage but I wouldn't say it is as clear cut as the bookies think.

[mjt]

4-1 is a good price.

How much have you wagered jl ?

[jl]

I do have a small interest from the start of the season mjt and am presently [****!!****] myself. top 3 would do but even thats not a gimme yet, as it looks like there's six teams for five places. Can't deny that the play-offs have made things exciting but I'll be very happy when/if a top three finish for us is certain.

[extaffyjim]

A small interest eh? Im pretty sure quite a few people have a small interest in us winning the league, and not just Rucay fans, considering the odds halved from 20/1 to 10/1 within about 3 days.

[EFC Fan]

The Play-offs have certainly kept things interesting.

From what I have seen this season, there is very little to chose between Yeading and Billericay and one is certain to go up (even though we could mathematically still win it!).

 

Then IMHO it's between ourselves and Braintree to fight out the final place with one of the above. On their day all are capable of beating each other so whoever wins it can say they got there on merit.

 

But at the end of the day I think Yeading will hang on and as much as I'd love to see us go up, I think Ricay will win the play-offs.

 

Whatever happens, for us to go from a crap Wessex league side to the edge of the conference is unbelievable in just 3 years. It's been a superb journal so far and if we don't make it this season, I'm sure we will go up next.

As long as Leyton or Hampton don't go up. Leyton are dreadful and Hampton are just a bunch of thugs!!
