Expectations at Barnet?

[Lundan Cabbie]

Barnet need a kick start themselves and I am sure they will be looking at this game to get one.

Everyone is keen to write off Barnet but I hope they survive in this league. They have invested more into their youth academy than any other club at this level. It would be such a shame that when the talent gets to the first team that they are in the Conference rather than the Football League.

For those who are unaware, Barnet are the only League Two club to be awarded category 2 status under the EPPP for their youth set-up. They are side by side with Premier League clubs QPR and Swansea.

I wish they would open up more than one turnstile whenever Argyle are in town though! :banghead:

Sounds pretty familiar to the away end at HP. When we were last down here they had "pay on the day" but at the same turnstile as ticket holders. This meant that only 3 or 4 fans were getting through each minute. Cash at the turnstiles should be banned everywhere in my opinion.

Argyle are just as bad as everywhere else. No doubt it is the same at our own away end.

With Cockney Orient oft shouting grand delusions, Barnet are north london's sympathy/second team by frequent choice, so that youth potential is no surprise.

Forget the business-end-of-season-come-spring nonsense, this match matters. 0-0 then.

My first game for ages at a place with a lot of memories - and I can't see beyond a 2-0 win for us, preceded of course by a number of fine pre-match beers and ciders at "The Bree Louise". :stout:

:greensmile: Its a long walk from Euston to Underhill, or should I say stagger?

 

[ZeeZan6]

I hope for a win. Looking forward to the game.
Wouldn't be happy with anything less than 3points tbh

 

[Lundan Cabbie]

There is a lot of confidence about. Four days is a long time on PASOTI :greensmile:

I have no expectations any more ...

Great memories of previous trips to Barnet though, when Holloway was manager, and when Warnock was in charge (when it poured with rain)

Subject of which, does anybody know what Warnock was doing at Argyle on Tuesday?

Now THAT is a excellent pub!

Though I hear it's in danger of being demolished with that whole block in the name of progress...

I can never expect us to win in the league because it is such a rarity. However, it sounds ominous if they have Collins up there and we are badly injured out again. I do think the phrase 'one player doesn't make a team but he can make one hell of a difference' was it Don Revie? That's true; the only really impressive away league performance was when Ross Jenkins played at Morecambe. If he plays we have a chance of some forward momentum again. If he doesn't Hourihane has too much on his plate. We really need that midfielder pulling the strings and making the whole process tick. No Jenkins I say Barnet 2-0.

He loves the area more than Leeds. Who wouldn't! But i doubt he'd leave them for us at this stage of his managerial career, maybe later as a chill out. Ha!! but maybe, just maybe he would consider it were the job vacant because he is in love with this part of the world....room for speculation maybe.

Emotionally attached to both Aldershot and us and is staying down in Cornwall for the week.

Must admit, sounds like heaven - I take it it's close to Kings Cross for the train to New Barnet?

I noticed within this thread that some have out mcdonald in their predicted team. Have we resigned him ?? Or is it just wishful thinking??.

I think there could be a few goals Maybe 2-2,or 3 2. Impossible to predict really, but praying for a win COYG

 

[StevePAFC]

A win and nothing else, got to kill these teams off.

That's the plan, pies too. Then a 10 minute stagger to KX to catch the 1341 or 1411 to New Barnet (20 mins). Might even have time for a swift half at "The Builders Arms" by the station, then a 20 minute walk or 7 minute bus ride (326 or 107) to the ground, where we pick up our tickets at the "Box Office". Feel free to jump on the bandwagon, Bandwagon !
