Title: Cheltenham Town currently...
Post by: michael on Monday, October 20, 2008, 17:52:33
...have 8 players in on loan (They're only allowed 5 in the match day squad).

We know what happens when you fill a squad with loanees...

you go above us in the league?

They don't have Colin Heath or Patrick Collins so they are much better off than we were.

I am trying to convince myself that they are worse off than we are.

If we win the game in hand we will of course be above them.

I agree with you Michael.

Irrelevant of our form, a shit load of loan players tends to mean what you're suggesting.

Although they're improving they're still not winning enough. We win our game in hand (!!!) and we can refer to Cheltenham as inferior again  ???

Martin Allen will fill their team with loan players, sellout their permanent players then leave to manage Tottenham. Then all the loan players will leave and Cheltenham will only have 11 pro players on their books.

Mwhahahahahahahaha. Victory is ours.

Difference is 4-5 of those players were signed by allen. Would not be suprised if they ended up perm signings anyway.

The difference is ....they get in good loan players like Hayles,Murray and Owusu for starters.

Cheltenham made a shrewd decision getting in Martin Allen. Seems to be working for them.

But they're still losing.

Not really. They only lost to Scunny on Sat. They came from 3-1 down to beat Col U 4-3 as well.

Wowzers bowzers.

But the important thing is they did lose. In all competitions under Allen they've won 2, lost 3, drawn 2 .... Scoring 12 and conceding 15, they're no different to us (yet we're hysterical and they're plucky) if we win our game in hand.

They've got Tranmere and Franchise away next, if they get more than 2 points from them then fair play to them, I don't think they will though.

We're above them now. With a game in hand.

Shrewd decision indeed.

I hate Cheltenham.  sooner those tin-pot cunts fuck off back to non-league (with the pox) where they belong the better.
