One thing definately established today.. Tranmere will struggle for a play off space on that performance. Dreadful. When will Norwood realise he is useless up front, he is so so effective from a wide position, as his main trait is dribbling. Looks like he left us at a good time.

As for today's game, I expect a tough test from Chester and I can see us dropping our first points of the season.

 

[Look Out There Are Llamas]

Never had such a vigorous pat down from a steward before, literally everyone entering the stadium is getting a full on touching up. Grimsby also have half the stadium by the looks of it. May well outnumber the home fans.

In an amazing turn of events, Hurst has there or there abouts picked his strongest side. Bar Clay being on the bench.

 

[Boz]

Missed the Rovers goal, the Welling leveller was quality and had it not been for some decent keeping by Scott Davies, we'd have lost that one comfortably.

While it was a harsh sending-off, and the officials appeared duped by the cheating Kabba acting like he'd been elbowed in the face, Sutton did make a backward move with the elbow, so contact was made in the ribs. Hence any appeal would fail.

Norwood hasn't been match fit and still wasn't, but he did get more into the game second half. There are enough sides worse than us to suggest we won't be replacing Stockport in the Conference North, but my optimism runs out there.

 

[pontoonlew]

1-0 Grimsby, what a difference playing your strongest team makes....

 

[Pliny Harris]

Fucking hell.

 

[B2TF]

Back on track for Conference North champions in 2017. Glad I came now.

 

[GodsGift]

Predictably, Liam Hearn limps off injured.

 

[PaulHaddock]

Lasted longer than expected I guess.

 

[Southern Shayman]

Newsflash: We're still shit.

On a related note, Aldershot should be down to 10 for a horrific challenge just before half time. Halfway up his shin - shocking. Beckles has his arms all over for every header - so frustrating

Predictably, Liam Hearn limps off injured.

I feel for him.
Genuinely wanted him to have a good season after all his Injury nightmares.
Hope its nothing too serious.

 

[Luke Imp]

Did I read correctly that Doe managed to beat his 'keeper from his own free kick?

No It was an Arnold free kick he sliced into his own net.
We have also had 2 cleared off the line so i just know how this is gonna end........

Has been a tough test so far, but just about deserve the lead. Shame about the missed pen.

 

[SomeMightShay]

3 fucking nil. We have players leaving in drones yet none of them unfortunately car share with Bencherif

 

[Dan_Macclad]

We are creating a lot of chances against Woking, only scored 1 so far. Could do with another to avoid doing a 'Grimsby'.

 

[Master D]

Sky inventing goals now

It's actually us that are one up through James Gray.

 

[Pliny Harris]

THE COMEBACK IS AWWWWWN

#FaxMachine2015

 

[Dan_Macclad]

There it is.. 2-0 Macc.

 

[Master D]

Getting bombarded in the air now, be amazed if Rhead doesn't score a header as he can't keep hitting the bar with them.

 

[GTFC1979]

3 fucking nil. We have players leaving in drones yet none of them unfortunately car share with Bencherif

You know Its bad when your players are fucking off home while still playing.......

 

[CTFCfan99]

We've officially arrived in non-league

 

[PaulHaddock]

2-0 Bogle. Need a clean sheet but I have a feeling we won't get it.

I wondered what was happening there, Matt Rhead 'scores' then next thing I see Its 1 0 wrexham!!

 

[Master D]

Now he does score, completely inevitable. For those who haven't seen us, we lose this 2-1 from here.

 

[GTFC1979]

3 0 Nathan Arnold, finally taking some chances that we are creating, this after Boreham Wood came out really strongly in the 2nd half.

 

[pontoonlew]

Just goes to show the fans are right from time to time....

 

[PaulHaddock]

Inevitable 3-1.

 

[Chris FGR]

Aaron O'Connor makes it 2-1. Fantastic stuff.

 

[CTFCfan99]

Good old Aaron Downes, 1-1! All Cheltenham now, can we go on and win it...
