Looking close to the strongest match day squad we have had all season? Only the return of Long would enhance it?

Very good point JP. How did I overlook them.

Do you think the team fitness and confidence is starting to grow as Duff works with them more?

Got a feeling we'll win today. Something I haven't had with any kind of confidence for a while. Certainly at Meadow Lane.

It's probably a bad omen.

Get in.

Meanwhile, all sorts going on by the sound of the crowd and the commentators are talking s#!t as usual.

Got to see this out now. The way our defence has been since Tozer slotted into a back three should give us confidence we won’t concede.

We should score more. Our defence is our strong point really. Got to take advantage of the worst defence in the division. If only Hussey had scored his one on one at the end there.

YEEEEEES!!!

Don’t bottle it now.

Reading on Twitter that Hussey and Thomas have been quality?

Sounds like they've been the worst two on commentary. Thomas weak in the tackle or not tackling and Hussey with only one good set piece, which we scored from, rest haven't got past the first man. But, I don't always believe them...

Damnit, Grimsby have just taken the lead.

Ten mins to go. If we bottle it now it will be a disaster.

Re: Hussey. JP’s live updates seem exclusively to be “Hussey beats defenders and gets in to the box to force save / cross which forces a save”!

Cambridge losing. Morecambe drawing.

We just have to win games and worry about ourselves. Grimsby game in Whaddon next month looking like a biggy.

Sam Jones can come on as a late sub to deal with McKeown :lol: :lol:

GET IN TYRONE! 2 in a season is a rarity for the big man.

And just as Morecambe take the lead at FGR :lol:

It’s three!

Two assists for Broom.

Lol even we managed not to lose at home to Morecambe!

Yes, so good when we can get him the game in dangerous wide / channel positions.

Goal updates on Sky Sports News from Meadow Lane. Unfortunately the guy doing the updates is basically saying "Notts County are so bad even Cheltenham are hammerng them", rather than say we've done anything good.

F*ck ‘em.

When County are losing Torquay next season they won’t get a mention.

This is the day to remember in a few years when we look back at the start of Mike Duff's glorious reign as Cheltenham manager :P

FGR lose at home.
Wright and Munns (and Daryl Duffy) score.
Cheltenham win 3-0 at Notts County. There have been worse days for our fans.

6-2, 2-2, 0-0, 2-0, 3-0

Keep it going lads!

Don’t worry about FGR, they’re a poor side, I said it when we played them. Any side builds itself round Winnie won’t be a good one at this level

I’m spending malabus’ money already :lol:

Reminiscent of Yates’ victory away at Dagenham. The first win under Yates and the first in 16 games for the club.

No robin. We treat them as games we lost in (even though we won). :roll:

Yes, because miners would count them in any losing run.

Those games are completely irrelevant except for maybe helping generate a bit of confidence. Excellent result today though and good performance against Mansfield. Shame we've been so bad that we're 4 points behind the next club, but hey ho, things are looking brighter and I really can't remember the last time we had 2 good games back-to-back. Mind you, I also can't remember our last home league win, so still plenty more to do,

Do we count Mangotsfield as well then? Let's be realistic and count proper first team games please.
