Swindon v Cheltenham Match Day Thread

[OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR]

Let's hope I keep my 100% 17/18 MDT starting record going...

It's only one game obviously but it will be extremely interesting to see what XI Taylor puts out and how they react and will give some indication as to how the rest of the season may pan out.

Some would have you believe we have no chance in this fixture purely based on our rather poor, to say the least, record against  Cheltenham over the last few seasons.

This theory will be exposed today for the superstitious bollocks it obviously is with a resounding 3-0 win (I hope). Goals from Richards, Woolery and Mullin.

An outpouring of Matty Taylor love precedes a 5-0 mauling in front of 7002 with 685.

Get behind them today, you fucking morons!

[Peter Venkman]

Would like Matt Taylor to stake his claim and we thrash them but I can't see it with our injuries and only 14 fit players apparently.

Bring in Moore for RCC who is lacking in confidence, bring back Woolery up front alongside Richards and hopefully Lancashire is fit enough to play most of the game along with Elsnik, I would play Iandolo in the middle to run at them as Taylor is our only other fill in for Banks and I don't think managing and playing CM will be good, certainly not on his legs.

Twine will be on the bench after his recall so could offer something later in the game, hes been doing well at 'nam but it is a massive step up in quality and pace of the game, I would have recalled Smith if I were boss and was able to recall him.

Its going to be tough, Numb have drawn their last 2 games vs Notts County and Luton so will have some confidence, they have been beaten 4 times in the last 10 games and they were against Wycombe, Lincoln, Accrington and Mansfield, all doing well but they have drawn 4 of those games and both their wins were good wins a 4-1 away at Colchester and a 5-1 home demolition of Port Vale.

I think it will be a 2-2 draw Richards and Elsnik scoring in front of just 6,598 with 485 Numb fans there.

Oh and this thread is frankly utterly embarrasing

Looking forward to this.

Don't think that there will be much of a noticeable difference in approach today.
Just a case of working harder and doing the basics better than before might be enough.


2-1 with an added time winner.  

[woolster]

we need to win this as we are in danger of falling out of the playoffs, that said I can see us losing  1.2

[Peter Venkman]

I see they have Scott Flinders in goal who always seems to have a worldy of a game game against us and has never conceded more than 2 in any game against us in his 8 games so far with 4 clean sheets.

We played Hartlepool in 2009 he kept a clean sheet with several amazing saves after one of these great stops I we heard from the depths of the Town End a shout of "Stupid Sexy Flinders...DOH!"

I'm sure Matty isn't naive enough to change much, beyond those enforced by lack of personnel.  I hate games v Cheltnumb.

Corrected

We'll batter them

[adje]

Is this a "must win" game?

[Quagmire]

Moore comes in for RCC

[Peter Venkman]

Hussey returns too.

[Batch]

big call! is Moore any good?

Not according to Luton fans, Basingstoke fans thought he looked handy, Barrow fans were not too sad to lose him.

We will soon see!
