Re: Open Letter to the Board

What? We so 'dearly need' a new stand? You might well be alone in thinking the existing main stand is fit for purpose - even amongst the board. I would respectfully suggest you stop "chatting sh1t" - but, better still, why not let another poster express their views without verbally abusin...

Re: Peterborough - home tickets

Block 6 almost sold out. Plenty of seats in the main stand. Block 7 completely empty. Block 8 now not even on sale. This is, frankly, a pathetic response by the people of Cheltenham. Their club needs them, and they've responded with apathy. I’m shocked to be honest. The seats have been consistently...

Re: Cheltenham Town v Bristol Rovers

Although Wycombe at home on 3rd February was the first properly poor performance in a while, 23rd February is when everything seemed to turn against us. The 1-1 draw at Wigan. We had ridden out the bad decisions away at Derby and Bolton and the mess of that Wycombe game and had just won 3 in a row....

My bum is squeaking. My optimistic head says LDW for the last three games.

Whether that will be enough?

Re: Deciding games

Problem is, Burton could potentially get 6 points. Realistically, our best chance for a win is probably this weekend - it's hard to see us getting many more than 3 points from our last games, which are definitely the toughest of the set. We could easily get less than 3 points - and that leaves us h...

Apologies for saying this again, but the time has finally come to ditch the Goalie on the bench and put a player who can provide an extra attacking option on the bench. Olayinka or even Tom King.

Re: Leyton Orient v Cheltenham Town

Agree. If Thomas can’t handle 90 mins, give him 70 and get one of the shot-shy plodders on to finish the game.

Harrop seems to be the only one with a modicum of composure up top.
