Forest Green Rovers

[PhilAnders]

Our toughest test so far this season. Hopefully Starbuck back to fill the RB slot and the rest injury free. I think we will do very well to get a CB point from this one and I would be more than happy with that. However, my head says we will probably lose by the odd goal, and form would say to crosses to the back stick! Like most attacking teams, FGR could well be vulnerable to the fast counter attack and if our strikers have their shooting boots on, who knows!!

[SODIron]

Most definitely the hardest match of the season so far. It will be good to see how AB and the squad do against FGR. A point would be a good result for us, and if we get all three, I may just start dreaming!

Remember going to Forest Green and seeing two absolute worldies in the same game from Abo Eisa and Alex Gilliead…more of the same this weekend please!

A point would be a good return – but let’s not go aiming for one.

post soapy and after regaining my composure the following day i had a dream and it wasnt good

4-1 .. to FGR , crap odds but a tenner at 33/1 had me hooked

first defeat incoming .. hope both me and my fortune telling voodoo sausage doctor are wrong.

330 quid would come in handy tho 5555

3 undefeated teams at this juncture.
The combatants being 2 of them.
A difficult one to call.
If we can defend in a more proficient manner, then we will secure a point.

[Sanfran49]

No targeting, go for the 3 points and keep the pressure on for the full 90.

is the first real big test – our attacking pace may do them, hard one to call.
Will depend on our attitude go for 3 points may have to settle for 1, aim for 1 will get nowt.

Start of a tough run of fixtures which by the end should give us a clearer picture on where this squad is.

On evidence shown thus far nothing suggests we will go being content to settle for a point. May be a bridge too far though.

Predicting a close game. Heart says 1-1.

[billpuntonsghost]

If we win, it will set the cat amongst the pigeons!

[another fed up fan]

2-2 safe travels everyone
Watch out for Savage seems to have massive influence on these inexperienced refs
expect another sending off

[cassidystash]

Hope it’s Savage!!

Scandalous that Starbuck and Horton are still suspended.

There’s a lot of ref heckling from FGR fans audible from the commentary.

[ironfromafar]

Agree … FGR will get a penalty in this game 100% ..ref being bullied

We just aren’t getting any luck.
Feels like a loss.
Bit the boys are gutted.

FFS – again. Shall we trot out the same interview! When will learn something?

We are making a habit of this

Last minute blues, sounds like our theme tune, ah well a point away is still a good one but it’s a bit frustrating to say the least, still unbeaten though.

References to betting?
It’s everywhere on the internet and in RL these days.
A little ‘dabble’ makes the games more interesting imho – what’s it hurt.
Should we ban alcohol because it might tempt alcoholics?
If we banned everything that could have a negative impact on citizens… what would we be left with?

Ridiculous amounts of added time being added but there is a worrying pattern developing. We do lose shape towards the end of the match when the subs are made. A well earned point feels like a defeat again.

[Awaywego]

A point away when your winning in the 98th minute is far from a good point Ironawe.
Most will agree 2 points dropped.

[JOHNMMAW]

I knew they would score as soon beck came on. We should have put somebody else up front with a bit of speed, he cannot keep with the play, he just wonders about, bit like Kane but at least Kane scores.
