| Borehamwood Tuesday 10:06 - Feb 2 with 2275 views | Dalenet | As they say, another 6 pointer. Borehamwood have faltered a little recently and lost at home to Boston on Saturday and collected two red cards to boot. Watching their managers post match interview he wasn't happy with his players at all. He also said that with the two red cards, and injuries, he now has 40% of his squad unavailable for selection. Could be a good time to play them - although we must not take anything for granted. Get at them from the off. |  | | |  |
| Borehamwood Tuesday on 11:34 - Feb 2 with 2166 views | D_Alien | Absolutely can't take anything for granted. I'm sure JM and the players will be aware of that, but hopefully fans too I predicted Boreham Wood might have a downturn after their heavy defeat in the cup. Results have been 'mixed' to say the least, but we must ensure they're not able to tap into additional motivation on Tuesday because of that. Players starting due to others being excluded will be extra motivated This is how it is, being contenders for the title. Dealing with this kind of pressure is relatively new, but something we must do [Post edited 2 Feb 11:45]

| Borehamwood Tuesday on 11:46 - Feb 2 with 2133 views | Dale_4_Life | The best chance to put another WIN on the board and go back top of the national league. York have no game midweek and a tricky game v Robbie Savages best team in the league on Saturday. February really is a huge month.. get into March top (or very close to top) would represent a massive opportunity to finish top of the pile. Eight Rochdale games in Feb so 24 points to go for.. |  | |  |
| Borehamwood Tuesday on 11:52 - Feb 2 with 2124 views | frenzied | BW have nothing to lose…they need to come and attack from the start ..Hartlepool showed what the best approach is completely dominating Dale from the first minute…should be an entertaining game |  | |  |
| Borehamwood Tuesday on 12:40 - Feb 2 with 1996 views | cumbria_dale | Losing Erico Sousa to injury in December was a massive blow for them - he's a class act. He was on the bench on Saturday but still returning from injury. His replacement in Regan Booty now being suspended leaves them even more bare in midfield. We might see Aaron Henry starting for them. I wonder if Dan Moss will start again with a target to subdue Abdulmalik who I think plays mainly on their left. [Post edited 2 Feb 12:41]

Plenty of crosses |  | |  |
| Borehamwood Tuesday on 09:10 - Feb 3 with 1239 views | dingdangblue | Got a feeling Hogan might start tonight. Think EEL will be saved for Carlisle/Forest Green. One good thing about these rearranged midweek home games is the travelling involved for the away team. Southend travelled on the day last week and Maher thought it affected their energy as the game wore on. Presumably Boreham Wood will do similar - any advantage we will take at this stage of the season. |  |

| Borehamwood Tuesday on 09:43 - Feb 3 with 1180 views | EllDale | I suppose it works both ways - we have to go to Southend on a Tuesday night in six weeks time. If you travel the day before you have the problem of keeping 20 athletes occupied all day until kickoff time. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

They're not children Squads that go to tournaments will have well-established routines for those days where they're playing in the evening. Such routines will be widely known throughout the game |  |

Take them for a walk on the pier - both ways! |  |

No I agree. So are Carlisle's forwards and Forest Green. Unfortunately Jim has already pre warned us that the squad will be used in this busy schedule and he won't start EEL in all 3. |  |

He's had nearly a full week of rest, he should play in my opinion and I hope he does. But yes, 50/50 whether he will. |  | |  |

Yes its not the weeks rest Jim will be looking at - he will be looking at Borehamwood/Carlisle/Forest Green in 8 days. He won't start all 3. |  |

| Borehamwood Tuesday on 15:23 - Feb 3 with 458 views | dannyuk | I'm sure he could play the next 3 (extra day rest before FGR) and then if needed be rested for the Yeovil trip. Then again I am not the manager or his fitness coach. |  | |  |

Funnily enough we haven't played many Sat/Tue/Sat league sequences at all. The one that stands out is Boston a, York a, Aldershot h and EEL started all 3 and had a nightmare at York. |  |

EEL has to start.. Fully rested and the importance of going top and the pressure that applies on York City cannot be underestimated. Play the game in front of you and worry about the Carlisle game tomorrow morning. Get this right and with some luck not in our hands (Forest Green win at York) we could be 5 points clear with 2 games in hand come 5pm on Saturday. Lets not gift wrap initiative to our opposition FFS. |  | |  |
