Cheltenham
 

Hello friends
Arguably the earliest posting of a match thread ever?

I thought it might be an idea to put all the match related stuff on one thread so that you can get the build-up, preview, stuff during the game and post match reaction in one place.

Build-up for Cheltenham has started, you can read an interview I did today with Jimmy Ryan about the game at ASFC News Story > 3787 - if you click on the link at the bottom you should hear the interview itself - about two minutes or so of it.

If this is a bad idea tell me!
Dan

Re: Cheltenham
 

good idea imho Dan

Re: Cheltenham
 

I couldn;'t be arsed signing in to You Tube to make a comment but well done Dan, this is the type of content I think all Stanley fans want from the Official website. More frequent, varied and more people please Dan!

good work microphone fella :)

Re: Cheltenham
 

Nice one Dan.............Subscribed!!

Re: Cheltenham
 

You will find the preview for this match at ASFC News Story > 3790

Re: Cheltenham
 

What's the situation with Kevin Long? Nothing mentioned in the preview. Has his loan been extended or has he gone back to Burnley?

Re: Cheltenham
 

His loan has finished although Stanley want him back for the season. However given that Burnley have a new manager due tomorrow it could be he wants to try and impress the new man and win a place in the squad back at Burnley.

Re: Cheltenham
 

I thought Long's current loan deal expired after the Cheltenham game?

Re: Cheltenham
 

11th Jan wasn't it ?

Re: Cheltenham
 

Sorry, for some reason I had the date '15th January' in my head, therefore presumed that the deal ended after the Cheltenham game.

Re: Cheltenham
 

Looking back on the fishy site it says 11th which is why I asked the question. I thought the management situation at Burnley might have something to do with it but was surprised nothing has been said regarding him playing tomorrow or not.

Re: Cheltenham
 

According to the LT he is available

Re: Cheltenham
 

i told you all it ran out on burnleys web on the 15th not on11 . i shoud have a job doing contracts

Re: Cheltenham
 

Conflicting reports, eh. What's new? :)

Re: Cheltenham
 

Why would anyone check Burnley's website for the details. Are you all closet Clarets ? :p:D

Re: Cheltenham
 

Re: Cheltenham
 

Oh I don't know, might not be the same shade but when looked at with different glasses it can turn people's heads and which club they watch. Your loss is our gain ;)

Re: Cheltenham
 

My shade of red went darker this week and getting darker :rolleyes:

Re: Cheltenham
 

Greetings from Gloucestershire friends.
It's blowing a gale - more on that later.

The news is that Stanley are unchanged.

The 18 is the same as against Bury - Bav, Winnard, Long, Edwards, Jacobson, Procter, Barnett, Ryan, Putterill, McConville, Gornell
Subs: Cisak, Hessey, Richardson, Joyce, Parkinson, Murphy, Boulding

Re: Cheltenham
 

The playing conditions are going to be a bit interesting this afternoon. It's extremely windy at pitch level and the pitch is a little threadbare in places (Cheltenham ground share with Gloucester City here I believe)

Stanley's players should be used to less than ideal conditions though eh?

Cheltenham are also unchanged from their last outing, a 1-1 draw at Northampton.

Re: Cheltenham
 

Good job it's not up here, it would have been off :)

Re: Cheltenham
 

The whole Stanley squad has travelled, so while the players in the starting eleven go in for final instructions the rest are having a shooting drill on the pitch.

Times like these that you realise how many players there are in the squad!

Re: Cheltenham
 

Morning/Evening everyone..C'mon STANLEY

Re: Cheltenham
 

Just a reminder that there will be a text commentary thingy on today's game here - Accrington Stanley | Facebook and here - Twitter

You'll get more lengthy (but less speedy!) ramblings here

Re: Cheltenham
 

Ramble on ..........

Re: Cheltenham
 

Afternoon all & may it be a feast of winning Football for the Stanley Lads ! :D

Re: Cheltenham
 

Afternoon Kiwi Mate!

Re: Cheltenham
 

Teams are out - decent Stanley following away to our right.

The team are all in black this aft.

A minute or so until the off

Re: Cheltenham
 

Cowboy!! :)

Re: Cheltenham
 

Jimmy Ryan shoots straight from the kick off!
A foot wide

Re: Cheltenham
 

So STANLEY with the breeze behind them in the first stanza?

Re: Cheltenham
 

Seem a bit keen the Lads !

Re: Cheltenham
 

Ryan's effort almost certainly wind assisted!

Re: Cheltenham
 

come on lads!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Cheltenham
 

Edwards and Wes Thomas have collided in the centre circle. Both down and need treatment. Ref waved play on initially and Melligan shot over for the hosts.

Re: Cheltenham
 

Rotherham 0 : Southend 2

Re: Cheltenham
 

17: Putterill hits a low shot that is easily saved

Re: Cheltenham
 

20 mins gone and it's been pretty tepid so far

Re: Cheltenham
 

24 - McConville crosses a free kick from the left. Long has a free header, but guides it over

Re: Cheltenham
 

34 - great skill by McConville to dance to the byline on the right and cross low. Procter shoots, but it hits Melligan in front of the goalkeeper

Re: Cheltenham
 

39: GOAL
McConville run down the right, low cross, Gornell finish, through keepers legs!

Re: Cheltenham
 

Get in there !!!

Re: Cheltenham
 

HOOWAAY the lads !!!! Nicely timed just before half time

Re: Cheltenham
 

Yehaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Re: Cheltenham

Re: Cheltenham
 

Footy 365 credit goal to Sean...

Re: Cheltenham
 

So do sky.

Re: Cheltenham
 

Sky have just corrected it.

Another strike from Terry !

Re: Cheltenham
 

Now they've credited Gornell

Re: Cheltenham
 

2 mins added

Re: Cheltenham
 

That's half time...

Re: Cheltenham
 

And with the score at 1-0 at the interval there's a half time round up on the fishy... ASFC News Story > 3791

Re: Cheltenham
 

Is Bavs a new attacking weapon?

The home side tried to respond, but could only muster a low free kick from Marlon Pack straight at Ian Dunbavin and a promising run from Wes Thomas that was ended by a header from the Stanley keeper.

Re: Cheltenham
 

He was four or five yards outside of his penalty area and nodded it out for throw!

Re: Cheltenham
 

The teams are back and off we go again.. no changes for either side

Re: Cheltenham
 

106 Stanley fans in a crowd of 2736

Re: Cheltenham
 

I bet those 106 are the loudest..

Re: Cheltenham
 

The game has stopped for the time being. Bit of "Accy Aggro". Handbags stuff.

While I have a minute, can I urge you all to have a look here http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/f...ion-56398.html and tell me what you think?

Re: Cheltenham
 

thought a boycott was wanted after last season's stewards experience - hope our lads and lasses are wearing stewards tabards to make a point.

Re: Cheltenham
 

Cheltenham sub - Melligan off and Josh Low on

Low scored in this game last season

Re: Cheltenham
 

63: Long is replaced by Hessey. It's an enforced change. Long injured

Re: Cheltenham
 

So how are things holding up ? Are the Boys looking cool & controlled or are they making hard work of it Dan ?

Rotherham 1 : 2 Southend

Re: Cheltenham
 

65: Putterill withdrawn, replaced by Richardson

Re: Cheltenham
 

Very little has happened in the second half other than changes. The home fans are very unhappy with our ref...

Re: Cheltenham
 

:d

Re: Cheltenham
 

Ain't life a Bitch ? Welcome to our World ! ;) :D Just need to push it out a little more .....:rolleyes:

Re: Cheltenham

Re: Cheltenham
 

Re: Cheltenham

Re: Cheltenham
 

Billy Kee just put Torquay ahead at Morecambe after 78 :p

Re: Cheltenham
 

Sherry, there have been two shots in the second half. That, and five substitutions is all I've written down.

Jimmy Ryan's just been booked.

Seven minutes plus stoppage time left.

Re: Cheltenham
