Re: See you at Stevenage!

I haven’t considered parking yet but I am always happy to walk as far as necessary for a bit of exercise. I can’t imagine it’ll be a major issue with less than 5,000 in attendance. I did go to Stevenage many years ago, I think we beat them on penalties after a 0-0 draw (probably in the FA Trophy).

Re: See you at Stevenage!

I could see us getting close to the 1390 if it wasn't in such a God forsaken place Perception might be worse than reality. 2 hrs 20 via the A40, so roughly the same as Exeter. True but we all know the reality of travelling down the A40 and getting passed Oxford There’ll be no traffic at 10am. I thi...

Re: See you at Stevenage!

The club say “just over 800” more tickets allocated. On top of the 500 already sold that means we have presumably been given the whole end of 1390. If they sell out Stevenage can also make a further 610 seats available for away fans in the main stand taking the total allocation up to 2000. I could ...

Re: See you at Stevenage!

I thought the away end at Stevenage holds 1400 and more tickets can be given to bigger away followings…. It’s a nothing game for Stevenage so there will be plenty of space in the home ends. Hoping they give us 1400 and we fill it!

Re: Cheltenham Town v Peterborough United

Also, didn’t Peterborough sell 1000 tickets? So it seems that the Chelt fans had given up before tonight…. According to GloucsLive, Posh took 309 fans + 3,564 home fans = 3,873. Fair enough, pretty poor show by them although I know there was not much riding on the result. I assumed they were bringi...

Brilliant effort tonight boys!

So obviously we need to win on Saturday. If that happens and Cambridge lose - we stay up!

If we win and Burton draw - we stay up!

Just need the boys to turn up and put in one more shift… if we win and it’s still not enough then so be it.

Big if, but if our score and the Cambridge score stayed the same we could finish above them on goals scored (on the same goal difference) if they lost on Saturday. Equally if they lost tonight and drew on Saturday it would be the same result. That is obviously assuming we win tonight and Saturday…. ...

Re: Open Letter to the Board

Rather than blaming the board or the manager or the players, why don’t we look at ourselves? And by that I mean the Cheltenham Town fanbase. If we had 6,000 home fans instead of 4,000 we would have a far bigger budget to be competitive at this level. The board recognise and understand that we could ...

Re: Cheltenham Town v Bristol Rovers

I’m with you when it comes to Cotterill - his best days are way behind him. I regard him like a lower-league Mourinho but the players aren’t listening any more. He has done quite well with certain teams recently but nothing to suggest that he would be able to get us promoted next season.

Port Vale losing just delays the agony and if we swap places with them we are both going down anyway. The only team we can catch now is Burton so an...

Re: Peterborough - home tickets

If the club wants to stay up shouldn’t they be doing everything they can to help the team on the pitch? If that means a bigger balance of home to away fans which could tip marginal decisions in our favour then surely it’s worth a gamble because the potential loss of a bit of income from a few unsold...

Any reason why Cheltenham can’t/won’t install a resale system for season ticket holders who can’t attend?

Also, what if we give Peterborough and/or Lincoln blocks 7 and 8 and they only sell 100 or so of the 500? Then it would be a really bad decision. Or do these clubs have to buy all 500 tickets off us meaning they are the ones making a loss if they don’t all sell?

We really need Vale to beat Burton today. Doesn’t matter which order we are in the bottom four, we have to keep fifth bottom as close to us as possible.
