Not that close then
It was suggested it would be last week
Has DC gone into the Cheltenham mode
I wonder who is holding up the process
I suppose we are only working part time
I expect now the international break is over we can get our man or woman in now

Well done Ruby

andgarod

Are there any updates on what was done a few pictures of some of the volunteers and a thank you from the club I was away with friends for the weekend who had no interest in football but they nknew we were record equaling but they were into the rugger because thats the Cheltenham way So let me be the...

andgarod

Well the players were in Saturday for training so I don’t think everyone is taking a break. So as conspiracy theories go was this the real reason there was no painting done at Seasons on Saturday Are we also looking at the managerial replacement when DC gets head hunted by another club because that...

andgarod

I thought DC was about to bring someone in
has it happened and we have not been told or is everyone taking a break

andgarod

So what has changed
no buzz now a 3 year contract
Has he changed digs or bought a house
Has he changed his style of living off the field

andgarod

a CEO and money

andgarod

Looks as if all Keena's confidence left when Alfie May left🙁 I think that may be correct Everything was put on his shoulders. No senior striker in to help him out or take the presure off Again down to money or poor recruitment I would move Milton back to the academy and hopeful DC has someone in mi...

andgarod

I though Josh Williams was good until switched to LB
Thompson started well but went downhill
Skipper not skipping

Smith was better at LCB than LWB but still only average
Did Harris have a save to make

Get them sorted

Booing at the end but why would it suddenly be sorted

andgarod

I received an email from the club looking for an SLO The text is below Thank you to everyone who has been in touch so far regarding the Supporter Liaison Officer (SLO) position. If you are interested in this voluntary role and being part of the new era at Cheltenham Town, please send us some details...

So in the last 2 matches we have seen assistant physio wind metres of bandage around heads for them only to come off within 10 minutes -bandages not heads :lol: Do we now use non sticky bandages so that they dont pull the hair out when they come off When I did my 1st aid training I was taught how to...

andgarod

So Kevin Russell has left the building according to JP So what happens now Does Milton revert to assistant manager Vincent 1st team coach Get rid of both Vincent back to academy Does DC have a 1st team coach/assistant that he will bring in Fitness coach required It would not have cost so much if we ...

andgarod

The official site said that all seats were sold out A few comments there were a lot of Derby fans all over the stands I believe those that were in hospitality boxes/seats were told to shut up I couldnt believe how quiet the away end was but then they could not beat little old CTFC There were a fair ...

andgarod

Little old Chelteham penalised for jumping and winning the ball
Rams jumping and not penalised
That said the ref probably could have had a couple more from each side in the book
Shirt pulling be Derby not penalised
Lino main stand side missed at least 4 offsides

andgarod

Southwood Long Horton Davies B Williams Smith Sercombe Bond Thompson Street Keena In addition to those you have listed I assume that some could be sold moved on to save some money and start the rebuild Others need to be replaced with better and others loaned out However if we are 5th from bottom the...

andgarod

Mysty you may be correct about MM but can you then explain the last 2 seasons being our highest and second highest if recruitment was the problem
I dont think our last DoF or the old favourite John Murphy got it correct but I dont think they got it completely wrong

andgarod

Well done that man
https://www.ctfc.com/news/2023/october/ ... Do-ktVokZY

andgarod

So who else is going to be RCB Davies is out Horton is out Bradbury is out Also Long is not a RWB remember Ferry being put there Broome being put there Was chapman and LLyod If you play a CB at RWB it will not work While I thought Long was poor he did what was required for the first 30 minutes Not D...

andgarod

I believe we could get six low figures for Ferry in January and reasonable five figures for Southwood. It's also less about those fees and bringing in their replacements now so they can hit the ground running next summer and we then don't need an entire new squad. Dont forget there may be gentleman...

andgarod

why was he on holiday
Were does rusty go on holiday

andgarod

Watch the lowlights https://www.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/12976284/cheltenham-0-2-fleetwood-league-one-highlights They dont show the free kick and I thought it was harsh but was the wall lined up properly did the ball go through the wall 2nd incident was it worthy a red card Poor fou...

andgarod

They are amateurs and that is part of the problem Risk averse I think is the phrase I am a trustee of a charity and it is hassle after the day job to try and do all the other things None of the board have played at any sort of level No one apart from PG does it as a day job This is why a CEO and a c...

andgarod

At what cost
Perhaps Milton was /is a good coach

Wades mates out to be replaced by Clarkes mates

but the board will carry on regardless

andgarod

and it will cost
paying people off bring in new people
the board knew what they had to do ( perhaps they didnt ,if not the need to go)
but do it on the cheap and you pay twice

andgarod

So how much will this end up costing us If money was spent in putting people in place at the end of last season we would not be pissing it up against the wall now Didnt back Elliot with money,now we need to pay Elliot off and probably Russell Davies needs retiring bringing in journeymen wanting to s...

andgarod

Southwood Bevan and Freestone At least Long will be back in position on Saturday Davies said he had another season in him - wrong retire now Sercombe Thompson better but still not above average and Bond OK but Ferry poor Forwards all 4 get nil points the same number of corners we had Subs probably d...

andgarod

Has our new manager worked with any of the free agents above

andgarod

so who is now in charge of the academy

andgarod

I am going to speculate that the first thing DC will do is make us hard to beat so I think he will revert to 5 3 2 for the Fleetwood match so I think he will go for Southwood J Williams Bevan Davies Freestone Ferry Bond Thompson Sercombe Malcom Keena Not sure if Long will push into the back 5 The mo...

andgarod

So is DC the manager or 1st team coach So what is the structure to be Footballing director, recruitment manager Assistant manager,1st team coach, academy manager Does the club appoint new people and pay off the old Run down the contracts Its all going to cost money because the board took the easy an...

andgarod

but dont forget we are buying Seasons and installing solar panels
I wonder if the interest rates were fixed or are we being squeezed

The board dont have to worry we have another season in the football league as long as we dont go bust

andgarod

probably Russel and possibly Russ by mutual consent Clarke mates may not be readily available so might not see major changes until the summer He will have plenty of slots to fill on and off the park whichever league we are in Best of luck and I hope the board back him especially as there is a new TV...

Ideally. So it wouldn't surprise me one little bit if this drags on beyond the weekend and even the Fleetwood game.

Thats the little old cheltenham way
