He hardly gave us decisions the like of which we have had to suffer. No offside goals, no dodgy penalties against or stonewallers not given. Not even any constant, repeated fouls/wrestling not given. Just a few helpful free kicks here and there. We are due well more than that. Have to say, I think ...

Our own manager will also be thrust further into the limelight if he manages to retain our League One status.
Nobody could begrudge him a move if someone came in for him.
But hey let's worry about Saturday first.

paperboy

The only big error Darrell has made was his experimental team set up against Carlisle. Saying that it looked good in training the day before...well! Hindsight is wonderful of course and the biggest challenge he's had is having a powder puff strike force for half the season. You don't win too many ma...

Talking of tall strikers who give the impression that they are standing in treacle where high balls are concerned.

Does anyone recall Chris Camden who would be in gold medal position for me.
He was a giant of a man who scored a lot of goals for Stalybridge Celtic but was a rare northern camel for us.

A win last night and we’d be on cloud nine. Problem is to win a match we need to score a goal and to do that we need to get a shot or header on target. Roll on Saturday which is another " biggest match of the season" ....until Tuesday when Burton will become "the biggest match of the...

...and Pardington is 7 foot tall so we could send him on in the last five minutes to win headers too.

Give it a rest man Why am I not entitled to my opinion. What is the point of the spare keeper. Contributed nothing all season. Could have had Olayinka on the bench or even King today. It is getting to the point where we have to take a gamble. You really are a bit of a miserable so and so, dissing a...

We did score - he wasn't on the pitch when we did, but we scored.

Well they say there are key moments in games and at 0-0 the mercurial George Lloyd misses a sitter. If he's injured again it could be a blessing in disguise. Then Curtis misses the sitter of the season. With Aidan Keena continuing his quest to go into Cheltenham folklore along with Jason White our p...

Looking like two from three to go down and we're trying to get our peashooters to fire.

Only time I felt dizzy and nearly passed out at footie when we scored the winner because I just couldn't comprehend what was happening.

Lloyd's a Gloucester lad so maybe he'll do a Kate Bush.

Gloucester hosting Truro v Dartford tonight on their artificial pitch.

Good news for Dartford one imagines as it's only a 300 mile round trip as opposed to virtually double that to travel to Truro.

The drama from Berkshire continues. Wycombe have pulled out of the deal to buy Reading's training ground. It seems that a detail in the planning consent when the facility was built specified it's use a football training venue AND that Reading FC would be the sole user. Seems to have put them off. T...

And rearranged for 23rd April, 4 days before the end of the season. So our last two games are now Peterborough home and Stevenage away. And the game before that is Lincoln at home, and they're absolutely flying at the moment. If we're not in a good position by the end of Burton away on 16th April, ...

I feel we are almost non-league in what we offer within this space and whilst I do not know this provider it sounds like it's much needed and overdue to get us to where we need to be. believe me we are light years behind non league in terms of commercial products. light years.

Torquay United deducted 10 points for entering Administration. Takes them from comfortable mid-table to 3 points above the relegation places. Who’d want to be Aaron Downes at the moment? Horrible situation. The fans had been calling for the owner and Gary to go and they certainly got their wish. Od...

I think there were 50k of add ons taking the fee up to a massive 300k.
Not sure if promotion or goals scored were part of that though.

I'm genuinely perplexed how advocating we splash out 20k is going to affect the sustainability of the club. How anyone can think a L1 club will soldier on with a strike force so short on numbers ( and quality). Remember we had NO strikers on the bench on Saturday. It’s the certainty with which the ...

Sorry Si ,but I respectfully question what you say. Finding 21k shouldn't be beyond a National League club let alone a L1 club, so to say we might become insolvent is scaremongering. Whether there's an oven ready option out there who knows, but for heavens sake we need to try. If we max out the cred...

There's not much more we can do to stay in League 1. I don't see us signing a free-agent striker, I don't think we have the funds to. It could all be back in our own hands after tomorrow night's games as well, so a bit early to be throwing in the towel. Well if the club isn't allowing Darrell to lo...

We really,really need thereto be a couple of free agent strikers at Seasons this morning.

paperboy

Absolutely, I mentioned the other day that for the sake of two months wages and a L1 status bonus it's a no brainer. I'd be amazed if we haven't had a few training with us at the very least. It must be soul destroying for the defence and midfield to be working their butts off to have a strike force ...

paperboy

I know that most teams have prolonged celebrations when they score, but can it be counter productive as perhaps it was today as it gave Oxford time to gather their thoughts.
Sometimes maybe it's better to get on with it whilst the opposition is still shell shocked.
