Just back

Ref seemed to be a bit of a mixture, falling for their players falling over, but letting clear shoves in Town players backs go. He did wise up to it eventually though.

The rumpus in front of the find us was because Cook was fouled and laying prone on the ground when their no. 24 kicked him in the back in front of the linesman.
The linesman brought it to the attention of the ref who only gave him a yellow. How it was not violent conduct and a straight red I don't  know.

Type of game you get during a season and when you win them the garden is rosy but lose them and we are crap, boring and play hoof ball.

Listening to Stuart McCAll sounds like Scunthorpe game exactly the same but they lost, tough luck. Bounce looked lively and I think we need to give Cheltenham some credit as they worked very hard and gave us no room to play.

In all honesty one of those games when town could not string three passes together and no player seemed to be able to control the ball which MJ put down to the pitch which I agree did contribute.

Anyway we won the local pub was full of miserable Chimps bemoaning giving away. 2-0 lead with minutes to go so life is not without its little pleasures!!!

Was pleasantly surprised at the attendance today. Managed to add 1000+ over the previous home game. Amazing what a few wins can do.

Hope I am wrong but I swear see someone mention somewhere that local football teams can take their player and a parent for £13? Or did I dream it.

Not pretty and a bit frustrating considering that for once there was no real wind and the day was set for getting the ball down. That said really pleased with a functional 3 points.

Loathed to admit it but Cheltenham did a good job on Elliot and nuetralused our wide stacking threat to an extent that it meant that in reality the game was always going to be a grind.

Regardless of who their manager is there’s something I really despise about Cheltenham as their culture appears to be all about cheating and cynicism at every opportunity they have. The lad who ran his studs over Cook whilst he was on the floor should have been sent off, again weak officiating!

All the players worked really hard even if our passing wasn’t great the work rate off the ball and evident versatility earnt the points today.

Hess definitely MOM he’s a great competitor, has a really good engine and reminds me of Joe Waters when he has the ball at his feet.

In a poor game I don’t think any Town player had a bad game. Mentions in despatches for the front 2, Woolley, Ludwig and RHJ who for a relatively small CB dealt with the ariel stuff pretty well

Regardless of the quality on show Town’s approach won the day and the points. I also think MJ got his changes right at the right time and I absolutely get Davis in mid field for the closing stages.

Like I say the lads showed their versatility today and deserve a pat on the back as well as 3 points.

UTM!!

That was a good performance in a different way
Players fed off the crowd knowing we wanted to beat these cheats any way (hate them)
Well done Town on a really gritty workmanlike win
Honourable mentions

Can we get a result at Swindon

Tough game to watch and probably to play in.

I thought they did a bit of a job on us today and especially Embleton who hardly had a touch. They looked a tough side but from the manager down they were a complete set of five knuckle shufflers.

At the end of the day just thankful for the 3 points and beating those tw*ts.

Agree with most of what’s been said. Only need to add how good Collins was today. My MOM

Nice run. Only conceded once in 4 games (and that was a consolation).

Bit of a dull game. Frustrating that we couldn’t get the ball down and play. I could give credit to Cheltenham for that. But I won’t, the dirty, snide cheating scum. Stampiones indeed.

Town worked hard. Ludvig MOTM for me - put me in mind of Chris Nicol the way he headed everything. I thought Macca only had one save to make but my daughter thought it was going wide anyway.

Nice to see that ship with the wind turbine pylons go past. Surprised they move them upright.
