Cheltenham host Yeovil in League Two tonight.....our next two opponents. Let's hope it's a feisty game and the ref dishes out some red cards to key players I will be watching the Newport v Middlesborough FA Cup game (BT Sport). The winner earns a dream home tie against Man City.

Let's put it this way, if Newport win tonight they will be guaranteed another £552,000 and it would make their total cup windfall around £1.2m

Which is why I want boro to win. Not much romance of the cup and all that but the less money our competitors have to spend next season the better 🤨

Yeovil getting sucked into the relegation dogfight, its going to be interesting to see who falls into that trap door. Not sure we are safe ourselves, but atleast we have some breathing space.

Watching Newport making Middlesboro look like non league pub team. Pulis being out Pulised. Could be 3 up easily and a a blatent as there could penalty for handball not given by Atwell.

Gutted I'm not watching it but I hope Newport win, I know you say about competition but that's just 1 side, if we all had that attitude every time a big team played a small team then the gap would get bigger between those at the top and everyone else below.

Newport were 4-1 to win at one stage. Despite the weather in their favour, and Boro fielding a weakened team, more money went on Boro after the teams were announced.
Well done Podge. Newport will have plenty of money for next season.

Podge is a good player obviously!! But think lot of people forget we offered him a 3 year deal in the January when still in the conference an he turned it down.... Then when we won promotion he was offered a one year deal an he turned it down again. Think we need to get over the obsession with him now... UTM

That was obvious on the day. They didn't play to their full strength, and the players they did put out were not "at it". Can't blame them, and it has paid off handsomely for them. Sometimes you have to look at the bigger picture.

Looking at the league table I think it's safe to say Yeovil will be "up for it" on Saturday. If we can go there and win I'll start believing we can look up. Maybe that will also mean the boys can play with more freedom which should help the run in Looking at the Cheltenham forum this morning they seem to think they're now safe which makes me wonder why I'm still twitchy?

Hard not to feel confident at the moment, feel like we could soak up the pressure and to be down there they must be vunerable at the back, woolford and hessenthaler starting counter attacks with hendrie and ring flying up the wings, embleton, cook and thomas up the middle all ready to pounce. Can’t wait!

Correct I'm just saying it 'could' get rather interesting if they somehow managed two or three wins Look at us last season - who would of thought we would end up winning 4 out of our last 6 games!?! I certainly didn't

I think it was actually 4 of the last 5 games we won, the other game was the 2-2 draw with Barnet at BP.

It’s the whole business of the reduced contract length that was the issue. Can hardly blame Podge for turning down that.

Buckley was a more successful manager than Hurst. So I'd be more inclined to trust his judgement after 6 years at the helm. Compare his first 6 years with Hurst's.

I can understand that but can also see it from the clubs side of things. When we was in conference an offered the deal he wanted to keep his options open an didn’t sign so the club probably unhappy at that. Loyalty works both ways. Ps I’d of loved Podge to stay but he didn’t an need to move on.

It's not a question of loyalty. It's a question of securing the right talent. Hurst spectacularly fouled up there. What you're effectively saying is because an employee doesn't accept a new contract because he thinks he might get better elsewhere, you punish him by offering him a less favourable one for not being loyal.
