Last day of the season, could this be a winner takes all clash? Or is there too much to do for these two teams?

I think this will be two already relegated teams trying to show which should get the better players in the summer.

Think Chesterfield got two games in hand over Grimsby. Grimsby have been free falling for months now.

Chesterfield still have to win games though and, as poor as we were today, it took a couple of errors from us to give them a goal and their best opportunites. They won't win enough games based on both todays performance and where they currently sit in the table.

I think Barnet are down again. I hope not. I'd rather see any of the others drop

I forgot that Chesterfield were in L1 last season. Another one maybe heading straight through L2 for the drop
Barnet always struggle every season. I wonder how MK Dons will get on in L2 next season or whether they will drop in the Conf as well
Be interesting to see what Sunderland do in L1 next season as I think there will still be players (if they are still there) next season on multi year Prem contracts. They had no clause re relegation in their contracts.

Chesterfield owners seem more crooked and disliked than Grimsby’s:

Bad times.

Of the relegation candidates, only FGR and Barnet are well run enough to ride out relegation. All the rest look to be somewhere on the Hartlepool/Torquay/York/Stockport scale.
