Another hard fought but deserved win. So pleased for Humphries to get the winner and a number of good performances throughout the team.
We’re certainly not a pretty team but we are strong team.Enjoying my wine tonight, a Fairtrade Cabinet Sauvingnionish, I’ll hit the cider later
<noscript></noscript>Well Phil, I celebrated that hard earned win with a bottle of Spinelli Val Di Fara Riserva, which is a nice easy drinking Montepulciano D’Abruzzo. Should have had at least three penalties ! Hope the Refs are saving them up for Friday
I was stood at the back of the goals midway between the touchline and penalty area, it was the narrowest pitch I’ve ever seen and obviously Cheltenham are used to playing on it. It was like watching a game were Sam Allardyce managed both teams.
I hate small pitches (bit like Morecambe a couple of weeks ago) and think it makes it easier to frustrate the game and deny the opposition space and time. Playing surface and the swirling wind didn’t help either. To be honest I expected that sort of game and couldn’t really grumble with a point in the end; especially when Sunderland & Wycombe lost

A bit harsh, third in the league and beaten by the best team in the league

Yes, but that’s the Strange World of Football !!!!
Gutted I could not make it tonight.Got a funny feeling this game is going to be a lot tougher than we are all expecting.Hope the lads are up for it.Hoping for three points ,if not at least a point and we move on to Gillingham on Saturday.
Up the Tics !Come on Phoenix, be positive and have faith.
Hope Liam delivers a more upbeat team talk How come the 2nd Rovers goal didn’t go to VAR ? unlike West Ham’s first goal today ?
Are we playing with different rules ?
Anyway, bring on Joke City; definitely beatable if you ask me
Funny though, how their first goal was a great goal (Jamie really should have got to it, IMO); whilst our first was down to a goalkeeping error. I’ll admit that our second was a tad lucky (bit I’ll take it as Karma for that cheating goal they scored against us when their mon took the corner to himself, a few seasons ago). However, their second was clearly offside but the linesman on the West line was alsleep most of the afternoon.
Anyway, poor young goalie has been made the scapegoat to cover their embarrassment
The attendance today for Matchday 15 versus Blackburn Rovers was 9892.
Todays points scorers are –
Walgarthjohn – 9956 – (64 off) – 10 points
GoalsGalore – 9999 (107 off) – 10 points
Hampton – 10001 – (109 off) – 10 pointsI demand a re-count
I’ve reconsidered!
What a result today Phil !!!
I popped a cork on a nice white Spanish Albarino (to celebrate our Spanish heritage) and threw together a crab and prawn risotto for our Peg’s tea ! Can’t believe that we scored, yet again, in the last 15 minutes to deal victory. Think I need a stiff brandy to steady the nerves
Don’t quite agree with you CW.
It was hardly boring, since we played some good attacking moves and had a legit goal chalked off. Have to agree that we should have introduced Thelo for the last 20 / 30 mins. IMO Massey is history and we should let him go in the window before his contract expires; and concentrate on our young stars instead.
Hopefully our strategy for the window will be to find some experience to get us over the line, rather than a punt for the future.What exactly was Morsy claiming for to the ref, when Callum scored.
Can’t of been offside, because Morsy was on the goal line !
Can’t of been handball, because Callum knocked it in with his right foot !
Can’t of been for John Boy Walton falling over in the move prior, because there was an Ipswich player in between him and McLean !Reports coming in from Bolton of instability within all wood and timber structures in the town. Apparently Bolton Wanderers fans are desperately trying to crawl back in!
Ian Evertit is unavailable for comment but a spokesman for Wigan Athletic stated “Bolton got battered, it happens everywhere they go”
Hey Phil, great to chat with you at Horwich Central on the way home.
Well, I popped into the CO-OP at Lostock Hall and purchased FOUR bottles of DOOM BAR, to celebrate the goals that we scored against “the best team in the World” (apparently) and create a cloud of Doom over Bolton Great goal from Jimmy; must be one of his best !
Sent us Tics home happy
