Brilliant result boys, hopefully one of many! Today was an absolute must-win and we got the job done.
it would appear that you are the only one with the inside track that we could only have one of the other. How jealous are we
Hi Garby. Nice to speak.
Goodwin was sold and a few vocal idiots kept going on about…’oh he’s our best striker’
Let’s have it right - he was awful and scored 0 goals in 11 games at the start of the season.
Those people now will not pipe up, even though we’ve got a decent striker that the manager and board chose. They’ll just pretend they didn’t say that stuff.
So! - bless those folks who whinged on about Goodwin and are not on here today saying how wrong they got it. I won’t have a go at them but it’s absolute basics
Oh - bring back broom

It really is tough but the green shoots are there. I think we all need to thank the board and the manager for having a fighting chance against all the odds
Is he any relation to Mickey?RegencyCheltenhamSpa wrote: ↑10 Feb 2024, 17:52Imagine having Taylor and Goodwin up front. We wouldn’t have signed Nuttall.Ben3 wrote: ↑10 Feb 2024, 17:49 Hi Garby. Nice to speak.

We had a player called Micky Nuttall way back to late 80's approx. Don't think he played more than 10 games for us before transferring to Wycombe. Imagine Goodwin with long curly locks and a tan!!!RegencyCheltenhamSpa wrote: ↑10 Feb 2024, 18:08No idea who ‘he’ or ‘Mickey’ are so cannot help you old chap.Ben3 wrote: ↑10 Feb 2024, 17:53Is he any relation to Mickey?RegencyCheltenhamSpa wrote: ↑10 Feb 2024, 17:52

Lovely professional performance today. Excellent performance from Southwood, Pett and Sercombe class as usual and shout out to Lloyd for his endless effort and hold up play. Proper ‘we aren’t going down without a fight’ performance.

As an aside, we have talking recently about how we can establish ourselves in League 1. Look at Cambridge’s attendance today - nearly 7000 home fans today, more than we have ever had in our entire history. Their fans realised how big the game was for them. I wonder how many Robins fans will turn up for a massive game against Port Vale?

Equally impressed and surprised by such a large crowd today! End of the day Gloucestershire has 3 decent ish level teams and a rugby team that pulls in over 10,000 every week. Cambridge is a larger town, granted Peterborough also pull in big crowds , but they’re two large towns with an absence of competition from other sports beyond errr rowing and punting?robinsrule wrote: ↑10 Feb 2024, 18:40 As an aside, we have talking recently about how we can establish ourselves in League 1.

Cambridge were a Second Division club for nearly a decade in the 80s and 90s. In 1992 they finished 5th and got to the Second Division playoffs losing in the semi-finals to Leicester (who then lost to Blackburn who became Premier League founder members).robinsrule wrote: ↑10 Feb 2024, 18:40 As an aside, we have talking recently about how we can establish ourselves in League 1.

Granted, they haven't been great in the 21st century, but under John Beck they built a decent core support that endures to this day.
Port Vale is kid for a quid which will help. The CF is already looking pretty full in blocks 1-5. Block 6 is about 50% full. With a week to go I'm going punt for a 4500+ attendance.

Didn't get to see the game yesterday, for those that did how did Shepherd play? Does Lewis come back in on Tuesday?
Creating space and chaos for others to exploit and score will do for me. And that's what he seems to be doing well.
