Cheltenham Town (A) Feb 25th, 7.45pm kick-off

Hopefully another big away following leading to an electrifying atmosphere.

This won’t be on. Sadly.

A bit of a whooosh for you there Kenny if you read posts above after the EV Charger Points Stadium name … Shock, etc etc :wink: :joy:

Mightn’t be the worst thing if this is off but if it is it would be great for everyone if there’s an early call on it.

Like everyone, we’ve got knocks and fatigue and could do with a bit of recovery time.

All that said, this team magnificent team seem to find a way. I keep thinking “this is one game too far” and they keep making a mug of my pessimism.

Early call on the game being on please.

Don’t want another Alfreton. Crawley game got called off with 20 minutes to kick off the other day!

Can’t fault Cheltenham really, doing one this afternoon then if that one passes (which i don’t think it will) then there’s another at 8am tomorrow morning. That’s plenty of notice

Those covers look really thin

I think that Alfreton game was a real turning point for Walsall and Sadler, in particular.

Looking at Billy Dearden’s face, I suspect that on a dodgy surface and with the BBC cameras present, we might have got a rude awakening that day, if the referee had thrown caution to the wind (if you can pardon the pun!). :disguised_face:

BBC weather for Cheltenham is for a sunny day today, 4 degrees with a light frost overnight - zero. But colder tomorrow, minus 1 to +2 with sleet from half time onwards.
The game should be fine.

Rather it be off. Players could do with the break

Cheltenham fans reckon it’s likely to be off probably be called tomorrow though.

I expect Comley to get some minutes tomorrow. I’d happily take a point.

I also wonder whether it would be wise to bring back Donervan to match the aerial threat of Ryan Bowman.

I don’t agree with wholesale changes but 2 or 3 ‘rotations’ to the starting eleven make sense. Harry Williams didn’t look at 100% to me against Notts County and I think that Rico Browne should make the bench.

Flynn will try every trick in the book but I suspect that DJ could be our ace in the pack in the closing stages.

I’d happily take a point. George Miller will score, I suspect.

call it off now players and audience could be in grave danger.
