I'm a bit confused with the backlash against selling players to breakeven or make a profit. Its not luck to sell a player but a clear part of the club's business plan. We develop and improve players, give them experience with the aim to make a profit on them. At L1 level, with average attendances a...

Not sure if this has been mentioned anywhere else but Pett, Keena, Freestone all out for the last 3 and Lloyd touch and go aswell. At least we're well stocked for LCBs and CMs. As for forwards, lets just hope MT can hold together. Never fear, I am a free agent and will be bringing an old pair of bo...

Hey, ho.

Sadly it is sometimes a feature of the forum that some can notjust respectfully disagree without getting personal or belittling

Lincoln will be our hardest game by far, as far as I'm concerned. They're in great form, just beat Oxford away to close the gap to the last play-off spot and did it with 10 men for the last 20 mins or so. Plus, we have a c!#p recent record against them. Peterborough I think may be starting to think...

Seats not selling very well, maybe the board were right. Last home game on a sat this season and plenty left,shame. I would say it is a consequence of the questionable strategy of not immediately making the seats available for home fans, but rather playing stupid games almost in the hope that we ca...

Once Joe got wound up by the Burton defender he was immense. Hopefully he will be the same on Saturday,Perhaps he wants to stay here. I thought that as well, definitely improved when he was pissed off. Bonds also improved after he got the smack in the face. So...maybe DC needs to get in their faces...

Some people have got their wish. Now let’s see if the fickle fans of Cheltenham turn out in the required numbers.

Excellent news, will be at least 7 in there

Ihearye

Please, while we rightly indulge in all this back slapping. Can we perhaps spare a few moments and maybe have a vegan meal tonight, just as a mark of respect.

Ihearye

Just to confirm, I will also be doing the team talk on Saturday

Ihearye

Long throw, let's get kinsella marking a tall lad. That will work

Ihearye

Don't care how, who does it. Just turn up tonight and win. Just for the crack

Ihearye

Maybe im alone in thinking this but i am actually frustrated in the position we are currently in. 10 matches ago we had decent momentum but have fallen of a cliff form wise. We are only still in it due to Burton and Vale being similarly woeful. The turning point for me was January we had a chance t...

Ihearye

Despite what some will have you believe, we'll have one of the lowest budgets next season regardless of what division we're in. The club is skint and has no facility to make money outside of football itself. Staying in League One every season is a miracle. And that barely 4000 Robins fans turned up...

Ihearye

Amazingly, in a team that conceded three goals, I thought Shepherd was one of the bright lights yesterday. He is always making himself available and is happy to get the ball. Has shown that he can take the ball forward and is confident. If we need someone for Taylor (and maybe Keena), to feed off t...

Ihearye

So, would you not play Lloyd? Who would you replace him with? I was in fact supporting your case that there is no point in getting on the players backs as it seems to be purely the case that they are not good enough for who we are playing against. As far as GL is concerned, he opinion I was putting...

Lloyd's value to the team is his energy, chasing, tenacity, winning the ball, and setting up goalscoring chances. I agree, it would be great if he also scored a few goals as well, though I suspect if he did, we would struggle to hold on to him! Therein lies the frustration of supporting a club like...

Darrell Clarke is the reason we weren't relegated weeks ago. We have the smallest budget in L1 and, I believe, the smallest squad. To compound this, we have walking wounded and simply don't have the cover and strength in depth enjoyed by other clubs in this league. DC has taken his share of any bla...

Ihearye

This is Darryl Clarke’s abject team. He hasn’t convinced me he is the right man to get us back on track in League Two. Does Steve Cotterill want to be a non league manager? Maybe he could be persuaded to return? He had an opportunity to come back before DC was taken on but he turned us down for the...

The worrying thing is, there is only a handful of clubs in L2 spending less

Ihearye

I was ill (covid, if the result of the test kit that was beyond its expiration date is to be believed) so couldn't attend. So, objectively, why did we lose today? 1. We gave the Gas a handful of extra tickets. 2. The referee was corrupt. 3. The referee's grandfather used to fly a Bristol Beaufort d...

Don't worry, the board are sitting in their seats looking at the extra couple of £ they have got today

Rovers were awful on Tuesday, by accounts. Reading fans felt they cruised it and it was one of their most comfortable games of the season. 4-0 would have been more reflective of Reading's dominance. Is it possible to get a bet on how quickly we'll hear Rovers fans singing "How s#!t must you be...

Ihearye

It's a tale as old as time. After Tuesday, I should be raring to go for tomorrow but, even though I'll be there, I have pretty much no enthusiasm. I almost feel like if we do score and win I'll be a grumpy b#!#%#d still sitting down and shouting "it's a bit f#!$ late now!", even if it is ...

I'm guessing tomorrows result might swing it one way or the other. We noticed those blocks weren't sold out on Tuesday, despite the hype around how important the game was, so I understand waiting to see which side is likely to sell more to some extent. I hope this gets brought up at the forum on Th...

Peterborough's website only saying they have been allocated 1,055 tickets in the Hazelwoods. Club hedging their bets again maybe? Do they think people arrange their lives around their procrastination's? If they don't value my support or money, it's not a problem. Totally agree, the club should not ...

If we find ourselves drinking in the last chance saloon with 20 minutes to go, I wouldn't be averse to putting Shepherd up front. He looks like he has something about him, enjoys having the ball at his feet or head, doesn't mind running at people and has a strike rate to match any of our currently f...

Rovers ticket page says they have sold out. attempted to buy 7 tickets for the last game in the CF today, but no joy as it exceeds the number available, so can only presume the clowns have decided to give blocks 7 & 8 away again and deny home fans seats. Looks like I have been to my last home m...

A very pleasing result. Posh are looking unbeatable at the moment. Have they got any of the other relegation strugglers that they can take easy points off……….? As it stands they’ll overtake Derby if they win their two games in hand and improve their GD by six, and then get automatics if they beat B...
