No Wildig

Tutte and Kenyon in midfield mmmm worrying

Wildig is injured.
Not sure Tutte & Kenyon is “worrying”, but yes, not my first choice given the players who are available. I’d rather Cranston for Kenyon but that’s opinions rather than a ‘bad thing’.

What’s the story with Méndez-Gomes? Not even on the bench again?

[Zippy]

Zippy has sound and vision from Gdansk

[Zippy]

We got +23 and gentle breeze, thanks -

Listening in from Newton Abbot. It sounds like the commentary is being done next to a waterfall.
Line up looks attacking. Should get our first league win today.

[tim-sanchez]

Anyone else got a weird hissing noise on the commentary? Not sure if it's wind or interference

[tim-sanchez]

Don't think the goalkeeper touched it, seems like Kev ducked out of the header a bit actually

[tim-sanchez]

No idea how he missed that! I think we'll be happy to go in 0-0, and it suits our playstyle more than theirs. They'll struggle with the 50 yard balls in this wind so we need to keep pressing high.

First time watching on iFollow this season and I'm liking the replays, just like watching on Sky! Half-time stats too, sadly they don't make good reading for us. I'm hoping it's the wind

Haven't seen this new feature yet as still in Uk, but sounds really good.

Hope next week's Exeter match is more lively than today's first half as I'm hoping to get to that one before going back to HK.

[Keith]

Sum that up in one word?
“Poor”
What about summing it up in two words?
“Very poor”.

Two really good chances that you wonder how neither team scored. Their miss was probably easier of the two, but ours (hitting the crossbar) was pretty clear too. Other than the last two minutes, it was a bit crap.

Wind is making it difficult to play but even so, we need to improve in the second half.

[tim-sanchez]

Feels like "overhit" could be the story of the half, we've got to be careful to use the ball wisely

[paschahound]

Hope the technical difficulties don't mean the wind has blown the commentary team....er...into the bar.

[paschahound]

Great...commentary back and hissing gone.

[tim-sanchez]

We've been so poor on the second ball. I thought it was the wind first half meaning we couldn't clear it, but even in the second half their clearances go to them and our clearances go to them.

[tim-sanchez]

Lack of desire in my opinion second half especially. Looks like everyone is just waiting for someone else to do something, we can't create chances like this. Seems like we settled for a draw

[tim-sanchez]

On the positive side: clean sheet, O'Sullivan and Tanner were decent, iFollow was great and gets better every year

On the negative side: terribly boring. We didn't get going until stoppage time. Seems like we were deliberately letting them get the second ball so we could tackle them, there was no pressure. Got to create more chances

[BerlinWaller]

We have gone back to life before Aaron Collins. That was woeful. No creativity at all, zero width and not much evidence of any coaching. I got there early and saw the players pinging the ball about nicely in a small square but then proceded to watch them punt it aimlessly for the next 96 minutes. Alex Kenyon was probably the most industrious player.

[Slanester]

Can’t help but be disappointed with today’s performance, particularly after the high from the Mansfield games. I don’t think Cheltenham deserved a win, although their no11 was excellent, ran the show. A point, no goals conceded, and I thought Tanner did well again, not sure he should have been subbed off(??) We need to be switched on, on Tues. COYS.

[MFC-Manc]

Wildig was a massive loss....
today it was..... Roche hoof..... kenyon hoof.... old hoof.... lavelle hoof..... all to the opposition
And why don’t we leave anyone on the half way line on an opposition corner....

[Redalert1970]

Kenyon and Wildig now both injured

Midfielder needed on loan even if it's just till xmas

[CityShrimp]

A game low on quality from both teams. A 0-0 draw was the right result.

We are really lacking in central midfield. Alex has his uses but cannot pass the ball. Tutte disappointed. We need to try Cranston in central midfield for the next game, or Jagne.

We seemed to cope well defensively with their bombardment of throw ins and set pieces which was positive. On the not so good side, they seemed to be first to every second ball and won every 50:50 challenge.

O’Sullivan man of the match was a bizarre decision - he was anonymous all game for me. Buxton or Old should have got it, who both put in very competent defensive displays.

Some positives, some negatives. A forgettable game but we need to try something different against Macclesfield on Tuesday if we’re going to get our first three points.

We will... ...we're away!

Two home games that I think we've been far too timid. A complete lack of opportunities being created. Four goals scored in two away games against one of the top teams in League Two, none in two home games against average/poor sides.

[Westgate Wanderer]

We are so worried about any side that comes to The Globe, we set up to keep it tight, pass it back at the first opportunity! Why can't we start letting the oposition worry about us? We have the makings of a good side but are stifled by total lack of any creativity. Year after year the same tactics are employed and all they do is bore the spectators! Sadly as it stands in the football league it's quite possible that this season nobody will be relegated with the problems Bury, Macclesfield and Oldham (Bolton possibly) have. If this is all we have we should just let it go

[Westgate Wanderer]

Nice to see the bar busy after the game, although so many were waiting for the 5:30 pm happy hour to start! Is nice to see supporters actually spending money in the club bar as opposed to clearing off to other venues because its cheaper!! Support the club ffs
