Another two point deduction would be very handy for us.

Re: Cheltenham Town v Burton Albion
How many did we have yesterday, I could only think of two both for Taylor one which seemed a certain goal but defender blocked it and the other the free header which the keeper caught easily.art vandalay wrote: ↑02 Mar 2024, 23:05 A total of two shots on target in our last three games must be a big concern.

Re: Cheltenham Town v Burton Albion
It's almost like we have used up so much energy to catch up we are flatlining. The high press high energy cheltenham have gathered the most points....but at the moment we are a spent force. The emotional and physical miracle the players have performed has caught up. Stick or twist? I like Thomas......

Re: Wycombe Wanderers v Cheltenham Town
If we're gonna play like this we may as well bring Nuttall on now, at keast the ball might stick up front a bit. Would probably bring on Kinsella and Harrop for Sercs and Bonds, try something different I don't want to sound harsh but he's shown absolutely nothing what I have seen of him. Hopefully ...

Re: Teams around us - Thread to season end
After todays results we are no longer favourites for relegation! Bookies now have it with Port Vale (1/1) and Shrewsbury (7/4) to join Fleetwood (1/25) Carlisle (1/100) whilst we are 9/4 and Charlton 3/1.

That's a fair point, Horteng, the pressure would've been truly intense...and GJ rebuilt the entire squad.

What he has done is already amazing, I actually feel we might just stay up this season now after totally writing it off some time back.

No it doesn't but it would give us an asset which we can use short term for car parking space (less traffic on local roads would be favourable to the council I suspect) and it would mean we can build the new stand once funds are secured. I would suggest we can still buy the ground after building the...

Re: Cheltenham Town v Port Vale
I haven't checked the table but I think Wigan are already on 40 points, that means they only need three wins to realistically be safe and with sides below them well out of form I really cannot see them getting sucked into it now.

Re: Cheltenham Town v Port Vale
Exeter have played more games than anyone else and have patchy (albeit improved form), if there is a side who get sucked into it they look the best bet right now. Reading vs Port Vale tomorrow night looks a huge game in the context of the relegation battle.

Re: Cheltenham Town v Port Vale
Form wise, we're playoff contenders since DC took over. Miraculous turnaround and just hope we can finish it off. 1.5 ppg until the end of the season would give us 54/55 which should be enough.

The best way to ensure we don’t have away fans in the CF is for us to get home fans in there - if we can build on this form and get the word out that we’re capable of pulling off a legendary escape, then maybe a few hundreds of the casual fans can be convinced to come be a part of it.

Charlton are stuck in a rut at the moment but given their playing staff I fear once they get that first win a few others will follow soon after. Just look what Reading and Exeter have achieved after being neck and neck with us for ages at the bottom.
