NcnsBcfc Posted July 25, 2023 Report Share Posted July 25, 2023 1 hour ago, Mr Popodopolous said: Not a penalty according to Fleming or very contentious at best. Although we were at the other end of the ground, James got completely done for pace on the outside and took the guy out. A clear penalty for me. Nothing dubious about it at all. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldlandReddies Posted July 25, 2023 Report Share Posted July 25, 2023 1 hour ago, Sir Geoff said: From the away end he looked pretty distraught despite getting up and walking off. Looked like Achilles / back of the ankle. It wasn't a knock as no one near him. That's exactly as I saw it although Curtis said he took a kick on ankle ?? Great news if he is ok as I too feared the worst. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SecretSam Posted July 26, 2023 Report Share Posted July 26, 2023 Just seen the highlights on YT. How did we not win? Thought Cornick looked lively, some nice crossfield passes. Tanner took his goal well. Absolute nailed-on penalty, though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes the highlights are laughable, suggesting that the game was all one way. Funny how a guilt edged chance for Cheltenham was omitted just before the Tanner goal - looked harder to miss. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crossing was generally good (apart from Mehmeti), just needed someone to hold back and attack the far post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were the better team but it certainly wasn’t that sort of game I was really impressed with Cheltenham. Played it out from the back every time and played some nice football. I just think they will struggle for goals this season as they were definitely missing a bit of quality in the final third Curtis Davies will be a great signing for them 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully nothing but didn’t look to good to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
