    We won't be in the top 3 race for much longer if we can't win away, which we can't currently. 2 wins from the last 9 on the road, not great. Got to hope we either improve in this area or just keep winning at home.

    All 25th Jan games, except Swindon v Vale.

    Well, we were much better 2nd half, but still not great. Felt Scunny had us on the ropes between our 1st and 2nd goals. Our 2nd was the flukiest goal you'll ever see, not sure how it dribbled in. Class finish from Van Veen, had they not got a point out of that, they would have been robbed...

    Maybe we'll kick into life, I'm not so sure though. We looked knackered and have done since the turn of the year. We've relied on the same 6-7 guys and they look shot. Everything we do at the moment looks sluggish. Need to hope they've been storing energy for the 2nd half.

    China Coronavirus

    I'm in Hong Kong and they are desperately trying to keep it from breaking out here. They seem to be catching people before they get into the general population, but I do think it's only a matter of days before it breaks out, given that it can be in someone's system for days before symptoms show...

    I don't think Mbulu was that bad. Let's remember, he's still quite young and has barely played any senior football in his career. Ok, he had a trial period in the summer, but we chose not to sign him. He was then brought back in a "we're kinda desperate" move and thrown straight in. No easing...

    Pope is fast heading towards Leon Knight territory. A guy that could soon be more well known for his antics on twitter than anything he did in his football career, which is a shame as I do admire him as a footballer.

    So how are you looking like squad wise for tomorrow?

    All 25th Jan games, except Swindon v Vale.

    Hard to know what to expect. We're struggling on the road at the moment, 1 win 6 and now we go to a ground we usually don't get results at. We might be a little tired from Tuesday, but then Scunny made the long trip to Pompey as well, so that will probably offset things. Be interesting to see...

    Who do we want then?

    Whilst I don't have a huge stake in who comes up or down, for the love of god can it not be MK Dons who make up the 3rd relegated spot? There are so many other teams to come down who will be better than them. As for who comes up, Barrow wouldn't be a bad shout because they'd probably go straight...

    Midweek match day 21st Jan

    Nah, we'll truly get revenge when we actually turn up at your ground and bloody win for a change. I'll take a point given how the game went, but it's maddening to struggle there yet again. Now 1 win from our last 6 away from home, which isn't going to cut it. Onto another ground we also...

    Midweek match day 21st Jan

    Wait, you're asking for 2 strugglers to lose? I know you were dross on Saturday, but things aren't that bad are they? As I said in the promotion thread, performance is irrelevant. Just win.

    Wow, there's a blast from the past. He would fit nicely in the wasted talent thread. The guy was dynamite for Bristol City in 15-16, but his career has nosedived since. Not slumming it by trailing with L2 clubs mid-season. My how his star has fallen.

    Got Macclesfield tonight. We haven't won in the league there and almost always produce shaky performances. A 4-1 hammering in the freezing cold in 09-10, a dire 1-0 loss the season after. Then we had a 2-2 draw in our promotion season where we went behind after dominating, turned it around...

    18th Jan match thread

    Massive win that, they blew their energy in the first 60 minutes and we got on top once they dropped off, we dominated most of the 2nd half, they barely had a sniff of goal. Nottingham made a huge impact, Anene grafted his arse off, Wintle being back in midfield made a huge difference as well...

    Very even game at Gresty Road. You can see why Cheltenham are where they are, they've got lots of pace upfront and are pretty solid at the back. They should be ahead, but Alfie May missed a great chance before Addai blew what should have been a tap in, that miss is DVD blooper worthy. We've had...

    A point wouldn't be a disaster for us, especially with a few winnable games until the end of February. A win would be fantastic, a defeat potentially see us as low as 7th. I'd probably take a point as Cheltenham are very tough to beat.

    Makes me laugh that HelloGregory is so certain his team are going down when the bottom 2 are rolling out attackers like Alex Revell, Jordan Slew, Shaun Miller, Ajay Leitch-Smith, Kevin Ellison, Craig Mackail-Smith and now Jake Cassidy. A collection of poor strikers who are either injured all the...

    Swindon vs Crewe (1st Vs 3rd)

    The difference between him and Garratt is, Garratt was making the same mistakes 5 years into his pro career. He never learned and developed. Will has played 31 professional games. He's got plenty of time to improve. I do agree with our criticisms, I too find him a bit suspect in his command of...

    Swindon vs Crewe (1st Vs 3rd)

    In what sense? First and second goals weren't on him. 3rd he maybe could have judged better but how often does he deal with shots on goal from those sorts of angles. Yeah, he flapped at a few crosses and didnt look that secure, but overall, I though he was fine. Dont think there is any major...
