Cheltenham Away

[matt_drfc]

Why do people always say we'd have taken a point before? We can't win at home for toffee, so 3 points have to come from somewhere. Regardless how bad the game is or how we play, another late goal conceded could be crucial. We're gradually slipping down whilst other teams around us are picking up points. We never beat York at home and Exeter have back to back wins. This time next week we could be in the drop zone!

Considering we went in to the game on the back of 3 losses, a point is definitely positive, Cheltenham will be up there, and we do need to grind out results when we don't play well.

Just saying, there's 37 games to go, and "we never beat York at home" erm, 2-0, last season, Murphy, Woodall, remember?

Not going to argue about the general thread of this message... but how on earth will they be 'up there'? One of the poorest attacking teams seen we turned out against Morecambe earlier in the season! Mansfield posed as much of a threat and they were at least the Away side against us.

Really shows how poor this league is if these guys are challengers somehow... Northampton have hardly pulled up trees recently after being seen as 'potential champions' by those in the Sieve after our match

Forgot you need to be an amazing attacking side to be a decent team.. They've only conceded 6 goals in 9 league games, so they've got a good basis for getting results and when Byron Harrison gets firing they'll be picking up wins.

There are currently 20 better teams than us in the league at the moment.They've all played 9 matches too.The table dosent lie.We are 21st out of 24.Mansfield who we beat are 8th and have nearly double our points tally.Right now Id rather be 8th.Unless we get better we will have a relegation battle on our hands.Only 1 team that we've beaten are below us and that's only by 1 point.Although I think the "Cheltenham will be up there" comment was a bit laughable after so few games,they are 7th right now ,though could not beat us so I doubt they'll finish any better than mid table.Reality check.....This league has very few outstanding teams,they are all pretty mediocre though Bury have only lost 1 game all season,we've lost 5 out of 9.We are pretty poor by any standard including this poor one.

Agree Arnu but we have chucked away so many points. Yesterday 80 minutes yesterday Partridge was rock solid last ten minutes he was turned at least four times and the goal comes with the ball that was crossed going through legs. We are only a poor team in one area and it's a vital Area . If Batt can find his way into a team that is so bad in this area it really is worrying.
