Best Of

If Gasroom 2.0 disappears tonight, I just wanted to say thank you, and I love every single one of you who doesn't keep repeating the phrase "move on".

The Wrexham game was a real downer, and very understandably so. The handball by their player in their penalty area is exactly the sort of decision that Wrexham are getting seemingly every week and that feeling that the dice are loaded is a real invitation to give up.

For me there are five places where the mood matters. The team manager / head coach / whatever, he is definitely positive and obviously working hard to mould the team into something he can tweak and improve during a match. I don't think it is coincidence that we have been a better second half team recently and would offer up evidence from yesterday that our options for attacking seem to grow and flourish as the game progressed. There was less and less of the horrible sideways passes between centre backs as the game wore on. So I have no worries there. Oh and

Secondly there is the team. They all worked hard all game. Josh personifies that. Cameron played a blinder. You could see how much Joe Low wanted a goal when towards the end he was working away with his feet, trying to get a shot away, I believe it was around the edge of their penalty area. I saw Richard Kone trying runs against their back line and then could sense his frustration when the ball didn't come. Key players all involved and sharp. The job looks harder than it might have been, but they look well up for it. And some of the coherency from the best part of the early season was there again at the end.

Thirdly there is the crowd. I was on the terrace yesterday. Decent singing and support all game. Hopeful and supportive I would have said the mood was. Not over confident, but that is not surprising with the previous home Saturday game being the Wrexham game in front of a capacity crowd, the nil - nil quid a kid game against Wigan and the nil - nil against Northampton back on 25th Jan.

Number four - we have the best media team in the division if not in the 92. Enagaged, almost infinitely knowledgeable and both realistic and positive - I love them to bits.

Last and maybe not least, there is the Gasroom, traumatised but still there, still the best debating of all football forums, still a place to savour and feel good about, even when the dish served is salty.

Under Ainsworth we used to waste time to a ridiculous extent, and the ball boys used to be called away from the touchline when we were winning, and we narrowed the pitch, and he said "possession can do one" and it was all "lol we're the best" "special club" "timewasting bastards we know what we are" etc etc

Seems to me that some fans' assessment is driven by whether they already like the manager or not

Mike Dodds seems like a very decent bloke, and he seems very highly regarded within the game. I'm fully behind him and excited to see if we can achieve the amazing feat of promotion this season. It's so exciting, and weirdly you come on here and it feels like an ordeal

Mike Dodds spoke really well after the game I thought.

I'm genuinely sad for people that they can't enjoy a result like yesterday. We won a tense encounter right at the business end of the season to leave us in charge of our own destiny with regards to automatic promotion

Blows my mind that some Wycombe fans seem genuinely annoyed about it

Thankfully the mood in the ground at the end was one of jubilation and celebration with people looking forward to Tuesday. Adams Park is a far better place to be on matchday than the Gasroom, that's for sure

It doesn't matter how you win, as long as you win, especially at this stage of the season. Wrexham haven't played as well as we have for the whole season (from what I've seen) , yet they are happy. They are expected to be where they are. We are not.

I think we've been bloody brilliant. 6 games lost ALL SEASON, and we are still whinging.

Give me a scrappy 1-0 win in any/all of our remaining fixtures and I will not be moaning about tactics.

Be realistic. We were not contenders for promotion at the start of the season - now we (genuinely) are. So proud of this team.

We must be the most miserable bunch of fans to be in a promotion race ever.

Criticism of Doddo' post match comments are absurd and unjustified.

He comes across well to my mind. All of his post match interviews have offered some insight into the thinking behind the match strategy and the discussions that have taken place in the dressing room.

Much better than 90% of manager interviews, which largely involve trotting out a few cliches and having a pop at the officials or the opposition.

Morning!

We have begun the process of migrating the Gasroom to its new forum software and domain registrar.

It is possible in the coming hours or days there will be a small amount of site downtime, and there may be some bugs we need to iron out once we move to the new platform.

Please bear with us!
