Just got this email from a Cheltenham Supporter... Not sure if its true or not...

Good evening Mr. Stanley,

I've just been looking through your website and thought you'd probably be interested to some know something I've heard today. My name is *********, I'm currently involved with Cheltenham Town F.C (as was my father) and I am a lifelong fan of the Robins, even through the non league days. My reason for emailing you is that a few of the staff in and around today were trying to quell some rumblings coming from within the club, and after some poking and prodding, it turns out that our striker Steven Gillespie has been talking to Swindon after the club and his agent were contacted by your assistant David Burn (apologies if the name is wrong, I haven't had time to search) and Gillespie has spoken to Maurice Malpas after the club gave permission. There is a fee involved and the possibility of a player in return was mentioned but that's all I could get out. It's almost certain that Steve is now mulling over an offer from your club with his family and agent but signs are it is not good... for us at least.

You may be wondering why I am emailing you, but I feel the need to share information if one of our players plans to do the dirty on us, so to speak. If you do choose to let this out (and please, feel free), then do not mention my name. I am sincerely hoping that this move does not come off but it appears there is truth to it and it is also appearing likely he'll join you. The club have also been contacted by three other league one clubs, who I shall not name, but Gillespie wishes to remain local.

I will try and find more information for you. I'm hoping that this email will start something beneficial for both of us, you may use me as your source and maybe in return, I could use information from you?

Up the Robins.

Kindest regards,

**********

(PS - I agree with you... Come on Hull)

Hmmm.

Don't really rate him personally. Downing said there was interest in him and Malpas mentioned something about speaking to players so who knows... Do we need another striker? And for a fee aswell?

Probably bollocks.

Didn't Malpas say we were looking at a couple of local players? Or words to that affect anyway.

Sounds interesting. He did bugger all when he played for City but he was only 18 at the time. Not seen him play so I can't pass judgement on his abilities!

I know Cheltenham fans rate him highly. They think he's better than Cox.

Well, a couple of fans that I work with have been pessimistic all year about Cheltenham's ability to score. The consistent message that they gave me was that Brooker was the only danger they had and Gillespie was shite. Will check that I got the right end of the stick in the morning.
