I came to the same conclusion after viewing the highlights.

Last season at WR, Oxford played the referee, it was so pellucid to everybody.
I do worry about this referee with the little experience he has in the football league.

Malabus

Wow.

But we were near odds on favourites to go down at the very start of the current season. Then the disastrous start.

Malabus

If we are a league one side next season, then would this season be on-par with Steve Cotterill's 98/99 team that got promoted to the football league? Will Darrell Clarke's name become eternalized in the footballing sacred halls and minds of the Whaddon Road faithful. Three points on Saturday would b...

Thank you.
You don’t see them often.

Malabus

Can anyone explain to me why the goal that resulted from the penalty miss was disallowed.

Keena hits the post and scored from the rebound.

How can a player be offside from a ball that was kicked by the same player.

Keena>Post>Keena

Embarrassing, that felt truly awful.

Why play the RWB and LWB out of position for the first quarter of the match. Don’t get me started on Adshead.

Agree 100%

Malabus

Good spot and thanks for the update. Pett and Thompson rotating alongside Sercs really is an experienced midfield now. Complete contrast to games where we have seem Hammond alongside Bonds and Chapman! Well, it will be once he is match fit. Who knows when he will be at that standard Stick him strai...

Malabus

Here until January. I presume his match fit.

Malabus

Actually it was 15 wins and a few draws with some input from the footballing gods - Deus ex machina.

Malabus

Been a great WC…the QF weekend was top notch viewing.

A Fibonacci sequence of goal scoring.

Three goals next game!

12358 stop there.

At least we put up some fight, which I haven’t seen for sometime.

Interesting to see the first 11 against PV on Saturday.

Onwards and upwards.

Malabus

I suspect we will see a little more of George Lloyd. He may even start.
Is Curtis Davies eligible to play after his suspension, pizza cup games do count, do they not?

Malabus

Would be helpful if Ollie Norburn is still out injured for the home side. If we can Keep Jordan Rhodes quiet then we may sneak a draw. Can’t see us scoring.
Not been a great place for Cheltenham over the years.

Live and hope for at least a point.

Malabus

DC likes his tough physical players. The current loanees, besides Bevan, are rather light-weight. Physically does improve as you work your way through 20-30, if you look at the group of loanees the majority need to get into a gym and consume plenty of protein. Maybe a clear-out at the beginning of t...

Can’t drop Lee Bradbury after the last couple of league games. Does the basics well, solid and reliable.

Malabus

Pontential long war in the middle-east; just before the northern hemisphere winter months. I do expect oil prices to rocket in price. Everyone will be cycling for a refreshing change.

Malabus

Thought I’d go and check out the bikes parked in the cycle parking area on Tuesday night. Firstly the area is still neglected with large bins and Cakebridge place fences making access pretty tricky. Despite this I counted 9 bikes locked to the official rack and another three locked to various fence...

That's probably one of the best episodes of the season so-far.
Can’t not disagree?

Rectified.

Malabus

Firstly, well done to the trust for creating this survey for cyclists like myself. I will now participate and forward my opinions/views.

Great episode. Hard to disagree with any of the points that were made.
That's probably one of the best episodes of the season so-far.

Getting the Trust to act like a Shadow Board? That sounds too much like Parliament for my liking, where the ‘opposition/shadow cabinet’ are constantly bickering with the Government in thinly veiled attempts to embarrass one another. With respect, I can’t see that working. This is a time for everyon...

Malabus

What’s the actual record? Eleven games is the current record, which as of last night we have matched, twelve will be the new record we set if we don't score against Deby this Saturday. The record has stood for 135 years. We have now equalled the all-time English Football League record set by Covent...

There is a subconscious psychological term given in which failure becomes more attractive the worst you get at something. In our case, we want to score, but subconsciously we don't, without having any control in that decision. Its embedded into every player; the pressure to score goals, because ever...

Watching it live I thought Broom was getting back up then some of the Fleetwood players told him to stay down to get Davies booked. I expected a yellow card but was shocked at the red albeit I didn't have a great view of it. That's how I see. Fleetwood very streetwise. Broom was told to roll around...

Malabus

It's got to the point now where no matter what formation we try or team we select we are always 2nd best. As the commentators said last night every match this season the opposition look sharper and fitter than us which is unacceptable. This start to this season is a parallel to the end of the L2 re...

That was truly awful. Giant nail in the coffin. Expect L2 football after that. Hoof and hope tiresome tactics in-which not a single Cheltenham player (except Goodwin) can win a header. Rob Street FFS, what is the point.

Malabus

L1 play off push.
