  • I’m afraid we look complacent at the back and light weight in the middle. When Cheltenham play thru the middle we can stop them. Curtis for Penders is the obvious change I guess.

  • Obita went missing there.

    Beautiful.

    What song is "championship football?"

  • This is the sort if game the word scrappy was invented for.

    Definitely! We need Curtis to boss this. Cheltenham the better team.

  • We look well off the pace, Cheltenham look dangerous everytime they attack!!

  • Thompson is like a metronome for intensity - which we're badly lacking in at the moment. Admittedly we would have been 2-0 up had Anis squared to GMac.

    Is it ever on 't internet @micra? I didn't think it was, I always have to go sit in my car to get FM radiio

    Good advice @Twizz and I’ve taken it. I could have uttered a loud expletive therefore when Cheltenham equalised but was half expecting it when I heard the dreaded Sercombe nam so simply shrugged my shoulders. He’s been a thorn for too long.

    Think I’ll concentrate on the cricket second half.

    Someone mentioned that @bluntphil had ‘gone’. Has he left Three Counties?

    Love Mehmeti, but he has to learn to be unselfish at times. McLeary would be a great role model there.

  • LHS is such a soft spot

  • I’m sure I’d love Andy Williams if he played for us.

    Apparently Ainsworth dreamed of signing him, but it proved impossible.

    Beg pardon @ReturnToSenda ?

    Left-hand side - sorry!

  • They’ve really got inside Jack’s head haven’t they? He and Obita have really struggled today.

  • Something I e suddenly just thought of... were wearing our quarters (as we should be) and Cheltenham have black shorts on.... how many games did we have to wear our change kit last year because of a clash of shorts !? Obviously doesn't matter today, or is it a championship thing ?

  • I'd potentially change shape slightly and bring De Barr on for Mehmeti - and have him making runs off Vokes, who is winning almost everything in the air.

  • Good time to call time out here.

  • fingers crossed Stocko is ok & can continue

    Fantastic point! Maybe this ref is just awesome (Beany game ref).

    I was thinking the same! It's down to ref and/or coach's discretion, but Champ refs did seem stricter on it.

  • Pick the bones out of that one!

  • Ok, who had Pendlebury next scorer?

  • Get in Pendlebury

  • Like I said, not Penders game, take him off!

  • Ollie!

    I'd still do that to solidify things in the middle, but that should do his confidence the world of good!

  • Get in again Pendlebury

  • As I said in the week, Penders again. Hope @ChasHarps is still not going to report me to the membership secretary now!
