I see membership has somewhat surged in the 8 days since this statement was made, proving that the Trust showing some intent and challenging the board is what the core fanbase wants. I think I saw that it was just under 270, and had climbed to 351 the day before last. Excellent! if anyone on here i...

Re: Rumour season opens

Baraclough has been in place as assistant manager with Cheltenham Town, relegated to League Two, since January so some compensation would have to be paid if he leaves that role but that’s not a major stumbling block. They know it will be about £150 compensation :lol: Thought he only signed a contra...

Re: Robins Trust Email - Cheltenham Town: Building for the Future

Be interesting to see or hear what the main board’s thoughts are on this, and if they will make a public response.
I’d like to think so, and I’m sure many others would too.
Once again, thanks to the Trust for their considerable efforts in producing this document.
Onwards and hopefully upwards.

Bromley it is. 2-2 after ET.
Bromley win the penalty shootout 4-3.
Jos Labadie one of two misses for Solihull Moors.
Tahvon Campbell put his kick away.
We played at Bromley in the National League winning season, so not a new club or ground for us.

Re: Stats

Who was the team we beat 5-0 in the National League title winning season? Midweek game at WR under lights and the away supporters coach was late arriving.
About 25 got off and by the time they were in their seats we were 2-0 up and we’d only played five minutes. Much amusement prevailed.

Thought Pardington did remarkably well seeing he’s only played a handful of senior games in his career.
Noted that his contract runs out this summer, as does Southwood, and Max Harris too I believe.
If DC moves on, good luck to whoever sorting out the No. 1 for starters.
