Michael Duff is a club legend as a player and a manager. He came up the leagues with us from Southern League to Division 2 (now League 1 of course). He was our first international player that came through our youth system. He then came back as manager and turned us from League 2 strugglers to...

Which is funny because I remember being completely outplayed at Blundell Park in April of that season (1-0) and praying Grimsby went up automatically so that we didn't meet them in the playoffs. It helped that Russell Slade had already made his escape plans and didn't give a shit about taking...

From our local journo.

Needs 11 games for 1000 in management apparently.

Who own's Bradford's ground and training ground? This is seen as a bit of sticking point for investment at Cheltenham. Our ground is owned by the council, but we pay them a peppercorn rent and have a lease of nigh on 100 years, so are not at any risk of losing it. If not owning the ground is...

We're unbeaten in 2 for the first time in forever, travelling to a Carlisle team on a right downer. 1-0 home win then.

The offside call:

Undoubtedly our best performance of the season last night, especially in the first half. A goal disallowed in the first couple of minutes, probably rightly so for offside but it's such a tight call. I do think the lino gets it right though. Then we concede from yet another set-piece. It's...

Bradford should absolutely destroy us, but there's something about Whaddon Road under the lights against teams that should destroy us. I've got us to lose 2-0, but I wouldn't be surprised if we shocked Bradford to be honest.

I should expand - I don't think he wants to manage again. Personally, I think he's a fantastic coach - he was as much as part of our success in 2021 as Michael Duff. I just don't think he's a leader. Also, he seems happy doing what he's doing now as a scout for Southampton.

I don't think Wade Elliott will ever manage again.

Shit after starting well, but was brilliant today from what I've been told.

He scored a very similar one to that for us against Vale last season. Absolute ripsnorter. Anyway - we actually won a game, our first away win since the Easter break. I don't know how we played, nor do I care. A win is a win.

I know a Barnsley fan and he doesn't know how to take to him. I haven't followed them at all, but I do wonder how long it is before he starts criticising things in the background. We've started talking about possible Flynn replacements on our podcast recently - Murray is a standout. He saved...

Oh he did brilliantly to start with - though it's been pointed out in the last week or so how much our form dipped when Adam Murray went to Eastbourne in January. Also worth noting how many players mentioned Murray when interviewed before and after games. Clarke's time at Cheltenham seemed to...

Some Gloucester fans still think he's amazing - those with a brain though see him for the egotistical prick he is. Also - he's never been forgiven for the way he left them and took their best players (who then hardly played for Chesterfield anyway)

They stayed up because we fell apart at the end. I mean even we beat them in the run-in, but as soon as we came up against a team that could kick a ball straight we were in trouble. That game at Stevenage on the last day of the season was horrific because when we equalised, it seemed like it...

Basically this - we were horrific for 2/3s of the season and we should have stayed up in the end.

All gone from round 1 as of this season. Yes, we're fuming!

I think it's something like the third time they've been drawn against each other since Wimbledon were promoted to the EFL. Something stinks about that to me.
