Other than Yeovil this is our closest away trip, just a mere 110 miles away. Think we’ve sold our initial allocation so will be travelling in good numbers.

I just hope we can reward the fans with a good performance and a result. Last week’s debacle really shocked me as we looked so far short of a play off team, so I am hoping Taylor gets a reaction from the players.

I expect changes, Bowman is back after suspension and Lee Martin and Troy Brown should come back in.

Cheltenham are doing really well lately and their home form is very good. Was impressed by Ryan Broom at SJP plus Luke Varney seems to be on fire.

I’d take a point tbh but hoping for all 3.

1-1

I feel like this thread title is intended to wind me up...

Are you missing our backward, snot coloured brethren Moomin?

Isn’t Veganland closer than the horse fiddlers ?

Brett Huxtable does it again.

Fucking hell, 13 minutes of injury time and Pym sent off. Sounds like a dodgy penalty but defended well afterwards.

Still 1-1 is a solid point and keeps us in the play offs I think....

Going off what Radio Glos were saying Varney was down a long time for suspected concussion after the collision hence the long injury delay.

The penalty decision was harsh, but Varney was out cold. He didn't move an inch after being clattered - but it was a 50/50 ball and when the ref blew I thought he'd given it the other way.

There was only 9 mins of injury time shown as well, so not sure where 13 mins came from.

A bloody good game of football today - both teams really went for it and it was played in a decent spirit. Whilst our pen was harsh, we more than deserved a draw.

Not entirely sure what Pym's sending off was for, I assume it was from a push on Waters after the ball went out of play - I don't recall ever seeing a goalkeeper getting two yellows before.

Hope Varney is going to make a full recovery. Looked a nasty one but Pym definitely got the ball and then they both collided a split second later.

A draw did sound a pretty fair result though so can’t really complain too much.
