CHELTENHAM are one of our bogie sides , however well we are doing, they seem to get the better of us most of the time, including a 5 nil thrashing in the F A cup a couple of years ago!
With only 32 miles between the 2 sides they are our second closest derby, after FGR.
Wellens has got the team playing with a bit of flair, so making the football so much better than the dour style that the orange man Brown was making us play..
Stupid time to have a local derby, the last Saturday before Christmas, cannot see a huge crowd , I think we will be lucky to get 7000, with xmas shopping the winner.
Cheltenham seem to have found a bit of form lately, which is not good news for us, but I'm hoping for 3 points to start my Christmas of to a good start, going for a 3-2 victory with 6850 in attendece!

There's no reason we can't win today, we're playing quite well at the moment.

I don't think we will though, and I'll take a draw.

Our last 2 away league games have resulted in 2-1 defeats against you lot.
We were dreadful in the first half of both games and were always chasing the games.
Broom at Cheltenham is one to look out for, tidy player.
Will go for a 2-0 Swindon win, with Nelson holding firm at the back for Swindon.
