As a borehamwood fan , a team that has 16,000 support deserves to be in the football league. Good luck Notts county. 🤞🤞

[@harrygilfillan9851]

Luke Garrard is probably the best opposition manager I have seen in my many years of being a Notts County fan. He is true class and always open and honest. His team gave their all today - pushed us all the way and the BW fans will be rightly proud of them and most of all him. In the end Notts took the spoils, and I hope we can finish the job at Wembley, but I hope he can take BW up next season.

[@andrewchandler1139]

Yeah, he is quality.

[@colinmetcalf2060]

7 mins added on for constant time wasting, karmas a bitch innit 😂😂😂

[@judithhume9047]

A very good interview with a very good manager. I'm a Notts fan and am still in bits.....

[@Ncfc-ek8il]

Top bloke your manager is .Speaks well. Thanks to all the BW fans who came up to see your team. You are always hard to beat.

[@karenfernley6280]

you should be proud I'm a Notts fan luke top man well done the wood

[@Jordothecat98]

Well done to the officials for correctly adding on so much added time for all the time wasting, nothing personal against boreham but too many teams usually get away with it

[@MichaelKilbey]

No it should be personal against Borehamwood. They are the biggest timewasters in the division. Today, justice was done.

[@Ncfc-ek8il]

I thought it should have been more than 7 that keeper was taking the Micheal

[@philkirk4571]

Never seen a keeper go down with cramp 😅

[@ian52296]

@@Ncfc-ek8il really how many times have you seen notts do what they did in that match all season? We hardly time waste mate. we keep the ball moving it's how we play. They was thinking a 2 goal gap was good enough and they got it wrong. There's nothing wrong with what they did or how they play its football and we would have still won the match if it was 2mins added or 20mins we just wanted that late winner.

[@MrMmnngghh]

Thanks to all Notts County supporters leaving mature respectful comments here. Top club, top team, top fans. It's a dreadful experience to lose in the playoffs like that, but to be fair to Notts County, you'd already be up if it wasn't for the insular dipsticks who "run" the Football League.

[@kevinroome8286]

Well done to all involved with Boreham Wood, You gave us at Meadow Lane a right Scare. Hope you can carry on again next season like you played against us.🤞👍⚽🏆🍻

[@beefybonus]

Lots of respect for Luke, great manager and has done so well this season. I hope we go on to beat Chesterfield now and hopefully Boreham Wood can build on this and go one better next season.

[@misscs1979]

So so proud of our team. The lads played a blinder today, just gutted for you all. Heads up we go again 👏🏻

[@johnparnham5945]

I think that Borehamwood deserves a bigger fanbase and big investment to make them the club that they deserve to be. The potential they have in the players and the club is there for everybody to see. I wish you good luck in the future.

[@JC-KeepSmiling]

Keep going Boreham. You took your chances incredibly well. And this manager seems to know how to inspire a team. Best of luck next year from a Notts fan.

[@grahampurser4682]

Love how consistently honest and open he is

[@philspiby3520]

Quality interview, Quality manager, quality team, quality fans, quality performance. Notts fan here. All the very best for next season. This season for performance over the whole season we deserve to go up. Next season - over to you. I just hope we have escaped from this relentless division.

[@countycod123]

Boreham and LG are incredible but it ain't over til it's over and with all respect Notts should be up now full stop

[@JSL2000]

As a Solihull Moors fan, I can also admit to being a secret Boreham Wood fan thanks to this man. He literally lives and breaths every single kick of the game. Luke loves football and you can see the emotion as he speaks. I was absolutely rooting for you all. But, what a club and we'll mix it together again next season.

[@johnparnham5945]

I'm a Notts fan and naturally, I'm delighted but I have huge respect for Borehamwood and I wish you well next season. I hope you get promoted and the team did do you proud. I will keep looking at your progress next year and hope you go onto higher realms...Luke Garrard is a top man. With him, you have a leader and a half.

[@leeingram6691]

Great manager, great fans and you played like hero’s right up to the end. I’m a Notts fan and know what’s it’s like to get beat in the last minute of a playoff.

[@johncousins1233]

Unlucky luke you did your fans proud as always a true gentleman 👏

[@captainc0ckwash]

He's a decent manager, you lot played very smart, got us all worried! Time wasting is a game plan and I would be lying if I said it's cheating as we do it 😅 it's down to the ref to cut it out, which i think he didn't get a good enough hold on that side of the game but theirs no way I would put my name down for that job 😂

[@user-uu9ti6kl2r]

Iv known him many years and as a Barnet fan I'm gutted for him..what a top bloke top manager all the best for the future

[@gavjlewis]

Good luck. Im sure you will be in the playoffs next season. I think the two teams coming down will be considerably worse than the two going up (presuming Notts Country do go up). Im sure the fight and determination will give you a good FA cup run too. While you will be feeling down today there is much to look forward to. All the best.

[@tommytaylor4139]

LG is a TOP coach, genuine, wise always talks sense, no waffle, unlucky BorehamWood, keep this unit together and they'll be just fine, Good luck for 23/24, you're a good club that one day will be in the EFL,no doubts.

Has a bright future ahead of him . I suspect it needs to be at a bigger club

[@trevjones83]

Time wasting is a ever growing problem of football & what is frustrating is when officials only add the obligatory 3 mins on for substitutions with no extra for time wasting & other add 8 to 9 minutes. No consistency is what frustrates fans. As a natural must say well done Notts County, runners up , you deserve your place at Wembley

[@delboyd72]

what a season for luke and the team. shame to lose in the end. but hats off to the performance.

Mixed elation with really feeling for BW. Thought they were immense. Be proud.

[@pintofkimberley]

Seems a reasonable bloke. TBF Notts should have been 3 up by the time Borehamwood scored their first but such is life. You certainly have a well drilled side and despite what conceding 3 goals suggests, a good defence that worked very hard.

[@thepieman8664]

As a Notts County fan I have no issue with the way you play, it’s not pretty but it is effective… On saying that we could have put this game away inside the first 15 minutes. Good manager and I kind of understand his disappointment but to be fair besides the long throws you didn’t really offer that much.

[@barricoen2342]

Plus the 2 goals of course

[@v1sionary100]

Really like this manager, we might like him at Notts in the future I reckon ;-)

[@andrewthorpe7882]

what cost you today was all your timewasting cuz if your team wouldnt have wasting time thats where the 7 minutes came from had you not wasted it you d have won it thats from a notts fan

[@chrismattravers5434]

Well done BWFC - massive effort - incredible game- the thinnest of margins - Notts got away with one here. Hold your heads up high!! Chris,

[@NoelWalch]

When you employ gamesmanship as part of your tactics, there will always be that opportunity it comes back around and bites you. When the ref is having to walk your players off, when you see his arm in the air, adding time because your players have been told to slow the game/go to ground, you know its coming. The board went up showing +7 minutes. We scored our 2nd on 96:05. Made no odds that according to you an extra minute on the 7 was played, as nothing happened. I really feel for your fans. Had you had the balls to play the game rather than the refs watch, I believe you would have seen the game out beaten us. But....football won in the end.

[@billymallett297]

Delighted Borehamwood lost. Horrid little club

[@dougbottrell4751]

Nearly an honest interview, but the reality is, that time wasting from minute 10 of normal time, put BW into extra time. Lesson not learnt, as added minutes were added to both 15 minute halves, and it proved costly in the end. Playing for a penalty shoot-out was not the right option. Good team, good manager, bad tactics after being gifted 2 goals. Great game for BT Sport and the neutrals at home. COYP, one more victory to secure a deserved promotion.

[@ashleyharris7443]

[@geraldchihuri5452]

Could have added more than 7 minutes due to time wasting to be fair.

[@NottscountyfanTV]

I mean I'm a county fan so could be a bit biased but the amount of time wasting by boreham was appalling (not saying notts wouldn't do it), so the 7 minutes was well justified!!

[@dennishughes1942]

Pay back for wasting so much time. Their own downfall.

[@rosslowen3906]

Usual shit referee in this league. Remember Torquay got robbed 2 years ago in the final. I feel your pain. I know what it’s like. We had 2 perfectly good goals disallowed.

[@NottscountyfanTV]

County have had their fair share of shit refs mate. Countless amounts. The ref was poor for both sides. But to be honest no way was that a penalty for us

[@neave789]

to achieve this game against a team with massive riches compared to the wood is something to build on. Notts county like Wrexham are a league above but what they Wrexham and today county have achieved is nothing because if those 2 had the starting point Boreham wood had they wouldn't have faired as well.
