Cheltenham v Town 22/12/2007

[bbb]

How will we do? Cheltenham are struggling, but have proven to be a bogey team for us in recent times. If Town are to realise any distant hopes of making the play offs then this is one of those games we must win. Chat away on this thread about this game.

[arnhemterrier]

I dread this fixture every year. We always seem to play badly there and who can forget the infamous Pav backpass? I can see no other result but a defeat

[malvernterrier]

This is the nearest game to where I live and I look forward every year.....last year we even met up with Irish in the pub by the station

[marshian]

Agreed, they shouldn't be a bogey team but they are.

[gruberhtafc]

Are tickets on sale yet?

[marshterrier]

It's pay on the day at the turnstiles.

£18 Adults
£12 Concessions
£9 Juniors

[gruberhtafc]

thats not so bad Where is it? (is it near swindon? geography is not my stringest subject)
I have to the racecourse but went by train I will drive down I think

[Deleted]

Been on the Ale Gruber? Early but i applaud you mate.

Nearest ground for me too but i detest the bleedin place, always but always lose, shite ground, expensive and small but i guess at least they've put a roof on the away end and the comedy stewards are always good for a larf!! Bollx to the crimbo shopping, im off, first stop that little pub/club next to the car park.

Oooohhh to be a ...............

[gruberhtafc]

Not been on the ale am just that bad at geography

[marshian]

Went to the Pav debacle match. Never again. Followed instructions to get to the ground ok but got hopelessly lost coming away.

I remember the little club by the car park though .................

[marshterrier]

Went into that club before the game last season and had a few.

All I can remember is having to visit the toilet every ten minutes during the match

[terrier1000]

;D

[terrier1000]

i'll be going again this year with the banbury lot, motherwellterrier and heckyblue after a night out in banbury on the friday. should be a good day out.

[iwanabeamonkey]

away form is just too bad, we ship goals for fun., probably on purpose too

[C.H]

4 hours for me


last week was rubbish i remember pawel abbott scoring

[scotthtafc4eva]

ill be there dunno why though as previously said cheltenham are our bogey team we have never won there!

[malvernterrier]

There is a fair Wetherspoons in town of Cheltenham....bit away from ground though......little clubhouse is ok but more than 20 in there and you cant get served.......best pub is carry on past the ground and about 200 yards on right is a massive pub that welcomes home and away fans....chippy opposite to fill the walk back to the ground too!!!!!

[antich07]

I think a 1-1 draw.

[SN0W]

at the pav-passback-promotion match I seem to remember standing next to Batman... and I hadn't even been smoking anything.....

[Michael Moon]

Typical non-league ground, not a happy hunting ground agreed but we've not played them all that often yet! 5 of us going down in a car on sat for a few bevvies(not the driver of course) cos it beats xmas shopping,its become a bit of a tradition for us going to away match on sat before xmas, Colchester away was a belter,bitter cold as i remember but it was worth it to bump into Jon and Anders(Swedish Terriers) of course they said the cold was nothing compared to what they are used to.
So c,mon down on sat and lets create a festive atmosphere for the boys.

[macknife9999]

WE WILL THRASH THEM

[kilroy]

Shall be there, 3 of us driving down early for a fair few beers before hand in the Weatherspoons that is a cracker! Need to find a dominos in Cheltenham though as its now a tradtion to have one before each away game, costly yet amazing.

As said before, it beats Christmas shopping everyday of the week.

Got my Forest tickets and coach tickets too.

[panasonicgeese]

BBB I have got to say that your Avatar of Bremner makes me laugh every time I see it ;D

Now i could be wrong about this, but i thought i had heard that the game was been brought forward to the Friday night, so as not to clash with the Cheltenham race meeting on the Saturday?

I would have thought this will have a big bearing on how many Town lot go down, could be we might not reach the mighty 58?

[terrier1000]

think that was the game last week as cheltenham beat luton last friday, also there is no horse race meeting at cheltenham this weekend

[bristoltown]

should i stay or should i go?

I stand suitably corrected

[wildbillthetownfan]

On paper this is a winable match. But so are Northampton and Crewe, but some how i dont think we will get 9 points. Prove me wrong Town.

[timclarkehadhands]

tough game, it always is down there, cant be worse than the hudson miss last season!!!

Oh I'm sure it can be worse

I'm looking forward to it though, and I'm pretty confident we can get the points.
