The partnership between Oliver and Kelman is looking promising so far.

Interesting about Parker.

Slightly less so when you bare in mind he has only started 9 matches since he left with the overwhelming pitch time being coming on as a late sub. He also "missed" half a season due to Covid plus he spent half a season with Wycombe in the Championship. From the few times I have seen him play including against us for Charlton, he seemed to be played more as a wide midfielder / winger than a striker.

A good start but will we have the stamina for 90 minutes that is the question?

Not happy with Adshead ahead of O'Keefe or Lee.

Down to 10 men with Tutonda playing

Happy with the other 9.

COYG

How come? I’m a big admirer of O’Keefe but adshead looks to have real quality.

Around the country one score has to be quoted
Charlton 0 Cheltenham 1 come on Cheltenham.

I'm enjoying Ipswich's start to the season too.

 

[jokerman]

I sense a familiar pattern developing.

 

[shotshy]

Now, we know exactly what will happen in the second half.
Burton will up the pace by 30% and we have to be aware and match it.
Keep the pressing
Don’t sit back
Get in to em

Especially shut down the hairy bloke who has the good runs.

Whisper it quietly but I think I prefer Caryol to Graham.....

Totally agree I said the same myself in the Colchester Match thread

Very pleased with our first half performance, similar but better than at Shrewsbury last week. If we can keep the pace and confident passing up we may see some goals at this end in the second. Some very nice penetrative passing by us and very few long hopers...COYG you can do this..

We look so good going forward but we do have periods of sitting back which worries me

 

[HerrLjunga]

Fuck sake...30 bloody seconds

McKenzies shirt virtually pulled off his back FFS

 

[jokerman]

Ugh! We needed a second half warm up obviously.

This happens so often you’d think the players would be switched on

He shouldn't be playing with the runs
