FGR Match Thread

Same starting eleven as against Barnet. Come on Town!

Same performance would do nicely!

Need to win this to back up the last two wins..

A chance to win 3 football league games in a row for the first time in nearly 10 years!

I see they have only 5 subs listed on the BBC. A moneybags club like that with only 5? Two Colinses in their team too. Could get confusing on the wireless.

Rare Saturday I am not working or at the game. Remind me please - any way I can listen to commentary without i follow?

ifollow awful full stop.horrendous service.

Town the better side so far.
I reckon if we get the first goal the floodgates could open up.
Famous last words  

GOAL!

Get in

(and a red, wahey)

That's Jones off penalties then!

Mitch Rose scores a goal

Terrible penalty from Jones again, good job Rose was following up 1-0

Boyeson jumping allegiances from Hull to Town 🤣

Top Ref

Fgr so poor

They have the weirdest formation and set up ive ever encountered! Jones must be off pennos now, but so so comfortable for town

No way jones should be on penalty duty, sorry but that's poor management even allowing that. Plenty of time for them to have intervened to insist on Davies. Jones is my favourite of our strikers but he is a bit out of sorts and wasn't even looking lively for the rebound. Anyway rose was and the worst team I have seen this season are down to 10 so things are looking up! Very entertaining half, town In complete control

need to finish them off now, , no more peno`s for Jones, he is not a dead ball man .

And they're down to 10

That was a crap penalty .

Maybe it's a bit churlish to say, seeing as he saved it, but I think the keeper should do better really, given how bad the pen was.

Bollocks, Jones hits the inside of the post

Shocking pen. I agree the keeper should have done better but well done to Rose for the reaction.

Still bringing everyone back for a set piece, against 10 men  

Woolford on for Jaiyesimi.

We are sitting too deep against 10 men and inviting them on FFS

No way the away attendance was 38

Hooper on for Rose. We now have Woolford in central midfield  

433 then

Slade to a tee, can't believe we want to hang on against a team at the bottom with 10 men but 3 points is 3 points if it pays off

What the hell is going on.. cannot understand these subs

Is slade telling them to drop deep or are FGR actually doing well with  10 men ?

Phew!

Sounds like me made hard work of it, but 9 points out of 9 is pretty nice!

FT 3 pts happy days

Still cant seem to over take the imps.  We lose they lose we win they win lol

Only out of the play offs on goal difference! Who would have thought that a few weeks ago!

Well done to Russell and the team!

3 wins on the trot. Not bad.

Let's go and get a scrappy win against Notts, then we'll be on our way

Slade in!

Chesterfield late goal against Barnet puts the cabbages in bottom two

We can be the dirty away team next week; winding up the locals, kicking everything that moves and coming away with a 1-0 win.

Pleased with the win, but what a struggle.. we play like riding a bike up hill with the brakes half on

Next two weeks they should be able to play with the pressure off.... maybe we'll be pleasantly surprised.

I take it you was looking at all the fans in the Osmond behind the goal?

They were all Town fans.........the Forest Green supporters were sat towards the corner.

Yeah ..what a mammary I am.

Got told afterwards that it was Town fans behind the goal in the Osmond

Bring on the green ticks  

Quoted from denni266

That was a crap penalty .

Think they did there homework on Jones they delayed the penno being taken for ages. Jones was walking away from the area trying to stay focused but it never worked.

It affected him badly the rest of the game I think all the strikers will be kicking themselves it really was a "fill ya boots up son" type game.

The shots on target proved that but the choices were not the right ones after opening them up numerous times.

Jones was desperately unlucky hitting the woodwork and some may say greedy but I did not mind that, he did drop his head and looked disappointed at the end but you don't need to be taking pennos Sam concentrate on bagging up in open play it will happen.

Still think him and Matt are a good combo but with Cardwell and Vernon on the bench Slade as plenty of options.

Slade confirmed that Ben Davies was and is our main penalty taker. Jones shouldn't have taken it and won't be taking anymore, which will 'take the pressure of Sam', Slades words.

I think I'd be more worried if Sam didn't want to take a penalty.

Sounds like he might have a character trait a bit similar to Omar's. You know when he used to get frustrated when something didn't work it would adversly affect his game.
