Cheltenham Match thread

Didnt see 1 so thought id start it

Team -
Marshall

Tutonda
Nugent
Ajayi
Barnumbobb

Kiss
Okeefe

Harris
Noone
Kennedy

Doyle


Subs - Guerra, Wilson, Le Fondre, Velikonja, Abbruzzese, O'Sullivan, Patten, Wharton, Watkins, James.

Not a bad team, hopefully a few will put on a big performance. I wonder if Guerra and Le Fondre will get a game. I just want rid of them now though.

3 - Eoin Doyle inches away from reaching Kadeem Harris' low cross. (0-0)

7 - Matty Kennedy tries his luck from 25-yards, held easily by Phillips. (0-0)

7 - Cheltenham's turn to attack - Bobbie Dale's effort deflected over by Tutonda. (0-0

9 - Craig Noone's corner kick headed just over by Ben Nugent. (0-0)

Not as weak a team as I thought, shows how strong/ big a squad we have

I was expecting Declan to get a bit more game time. Maybe he wants to look at the other young lads tho. I like the look of Tutonda personally

Thanks for the updates G squared!

Can you give a comment on how players played?

Updates/Commentary from Twitter and a friend who was there.
He said Noone didn't look interested. Slade was up there watching to
Guerras header was a cracker.
I cant comment on players as wasnt at ground

Give me Guerra over Macheda any day

Just got back and it was not a bad match against a physical and well organised Cheltenham team...a draw was a fair result and Guerra and le Fondre were busy second half...plenty of running from both of them and a good header from Guerra to equalise...stand out players for me were Semi at centre half, but he made an error for their goal which spoilt his otherwise very good performance, Kennedy did well in patches and one or two others.

About 25 City fans there and a couple of the players families

Went to the match tonight.

Tutonda had a very good game, as did Kennedy. Excellent goal by Guerra but you can see that his heart isnt in it...i.e not making any effort to tackle etc, dont blame him to be honest.

O'keefe - O dear
Nooney....just didnt seem interested in playing, No darting runs as usual

Yes we have depth in the squad but in my opinion there wasnt much there tonight to compete with the first team.

Personally I wish we would just give kiss a go but his time is up at the club
