Now on a run of proper away games!!!
In our recent visits to "The Abbey Business Stadium" we have ended up with zilch points!

Can’t afford that to happen again this time round.

Agreed BL!

When Danny Ellis plays we ship very few goals - when Danny Ellis and Paul Thirlwell play together we ship even fewer goals.

Match Preview!

Nice to have a preview of the game even if its our opponents. We dont seem to have one

When Danny Ellis plays in our back 4 we ship few goals - great result Town!!!!

With Tamworth and Nuneaton both losing think we are up to 3rd .Think master Daniels must be up there with his goal tally for top goal scorer in the league as well?
Great win...

Gloucester's match report.....already.

And we posted a video of the goal some 20. Minutes ago on twitter!!!!

Why is everything on twitter and Facebook now when it should be on our web site or on the forum-- is there a good reason?

The information will be in the website but it just takes time. Easier access to Twitter and Facebook particularly for pictures. With reference to the forum I can only give my opinion but the Facebook page for supporters was established following the level of personal abuse levelled at a number of people. I still comment on the forum and keep in regular communication with Supporters via the Supporters Club.
Why not pop down this Wednesday for the pie and burger tasting session!!!!!

Good win, but this incident didn't look very sporting....

Welcome back Nobby.
Is that the best you can do ?

Town have a code of conduct I think? Does it ban blatant cheating? I am a Town fan through and through (and I wasn't there to see the wider context) but it does not look good. (Frankly it is pathetic)

How many times have Town been cheated by other teams in similar circumstances? quite a lot I would wager, and to be fair it will probably not happen again with the team structure and discipline as it stands, therefore I would put it down to a mistake and move on.

Agreed! But a quiet word wouldn't go amiss

You are spot on sulphurite! It will not happen again! But the stonewall penalty he didn't get last week seemed to pass without comment. Just wondered if anything positive came out of athe Gloucester game that was our 4th away win already this season!

It seems that decisions are subjective and when they go our way make some people uncomfortable, but when they do, albeit rarely, some are up in arms? why?

A win is a win and I have lost count of how many times we have been cheated in the past.

Witnessing cheating like that will turn the much wanted new family supporters away to play and watch other sports !

Yes Adam Bolder's sending off against BPA at home a couple of seasons ago springs to mind. BPA player squared up to him & then threw himself to the ground, Bolder didn't even lift a finger. Things like this happen all the time, don't like to see it, especially from a Town player, but its up to the officials to deal with it properly but unfortunately they rarely do. If i remember correctly Daniels did get a yellow card for it yesterday but do you think he deserved a red? Discuss.

Corby conceded 5 away goals in 90 minutes yesterday!
We’ve only conceded 3 away goals all season so far!!!!!

Surprised by some of the reactions to that......must have missed the blatant shouts of "push him" the total lack of playing the ball, the trip and the other lad bundling into him. Our Brendon is clearly targeted now and if they are facing up to him in that situation then they run the risk of him going down like that. Total naivety on their part and gamesmanship by Brendon when his back was against the wall. So the feck what. Where were some of you lot talking about discipline when we had that had been Speight at the club?
Also seem to remeber a certain broken leg down there to an atrocious career changing challenge so frankly couldn't give a flying one about Gloucester city or their sensitivities to a regular facet of the game.

Seriously?
As opposed to seeing some of Brendons brilliant goals and set piece wizardry making fans more likely to watch town.

Hear what you say Fulham Phoenix but worth bearing in mind whenever we have had a super talented player they have quickly become marked men with very little protection from the match officials.

Even in my short time I can remember Adam Bolder, Michael Wood, Jack Emmett and now Brendon getting lumps kicked out of them.

Also one incident should be seen against the backdrop of Town winning the Fair Play League last season and we were the only club down to step 5 that registered ZERO yellow cards for dissent.

Add in the fact that we are playing an attractive style of football and winning, lets just put this down to a one off and enjoy the moment.

By the way we have a FREE TO ENTER fixture on Saturday 19th December designed to encourage families to come on down.

PLEASE KEEP YOUR DIARIES FREE as we are aiming for  a crowd in excess of 1600 and we need your help if we are to achieve this number.

Cum on Town

ps. our friend from Halifax is conspicuous by his absence on the Town forum - hope he's ok!!!!    

Condoning cheating is not a path most fans would want to go down - would they ?
