Let's try some optimism...

It's a long journey from the edge of the West country to the jewel of the east coast.

They'll be more tired than our lot after a tough game midweek.

The draw v Wrexham will have felt like a loss - they hung on for a huge chunk of the game only to drop 2 points in extra time. That may have affected confidence as well.

They may have picked up an injury or 2.

We should have the car crash and illness victims back.

Hopefully a raucus BP and a freezing cold wind will make their visit very unpleasant.

Don't understand the obsession with how many seats are sold each game, must be an age thing i'm more interested in what goes on from 3pm on the grass

They have 3 coach loads coming so with this in mind I'm going to predict around 150 away fans in my total .   I'll start tomorrow

If we are 2-0 down there is absolutely no chance of that. Hard to see how there could or even should be. Home supporters have already swallowed whopping amounts of crud. Go 2-0 down and there will be a backlash.


Understood the backlash at 4-1 and 5-1 v Donny but it should never happen at 2-0 when there is a chance to get something. We came back from 2-0 down at their place

We were 2-0 down at home inside 10 mins or so for the second week running, with the 6-1 Walsall hammering still in the rear view mirror. Under normal circumstances I’d broadly agree with you, but Town fans have really had the thin end of the wedge lately.

If we go 2-0 down to FGR I would expect the atmosphere at the Donny game to be like a picnic compared to what would happen on Saturday.


Yes but what does it achieve berating them, sweet FA. We need to still try and encourage them as difficult as that may be. It could make the difference of staying up, isn’t it worth trying to do that?

That’s perfectly rational and we could all agree, but it would be a pure emotional reaction and a cumulative output after weeks of home humiliations.

It should be up to the players to do their bit as well, if they don't and we are getting dicked again then are you that naive to expect the fans to be on their feet cheering them on.

The radio Gloucestershire commentary accompanying last nights stream said the club were putting on free travel for anyone 🤷‍♂️
