found this version of Dans text commentary, interesting to read it from the other perspective.
Cheltenham Town: Robins crash to first defea | This is Gloucestershire

I particularly like the comment that Accrington will always have an advantage due to our location. Apparently we (and only we) can pick up players developed by bigger clubs. What a loon!

Never have I seen a manager look so haunted! Can't stand it when they look every which way except look their interviewer in the eye.

We really need to get posters up around town NOW, as I can see the Shrimps outnumbering us on Tuesday night. I bet there are plenty of casual Stanley fans in Accy who won't even be aware there is a match on.
 
An awesome display by Stanley who were better than a good Cheltenham team in every department. We seemed to have a greater appetite for the game. Furthermore, the team seemed to have balance.

There were two huge plusses for me today. One was the influence of Lee Molyneux and the other was the return of Rommy Boco. Both were comfortable in possession and this allowed others time to find space. Rommy proved to be a ball winner in the air too. Although considerably shorter than his marker, Rommy was able to win the ball in the air in just about every contest.

A sound defensive display, too, with Peter Murphy and Toto developing a good understanding. Special congratulations to all the defenders and Luke Joyce who constantly tried to keep Toto under control, especially after the disgraceful push into the hoarding by Zebroski.

Difficult to choose a man-of-the-match in such an excellent team performance but my vote would go to Rommy. I hope that his performance today will satisfy the doubters.
 
Forgot to say - I hope Cheltenham Town will take action against the official who tried to steal the Stanley football, knowing full well that it had a Stanley crest on. Shame on him.
