    well not the most inspiring of games, Thought waggers and fielding were the stars and we were lucky to get the result, poor crowd?

    I must confess I really thought this match could cause problems because as SC rightly said it was all about Telford's possible dreams of giant killing. Crowd support for these kind of games is at an all time low but at least we have advanced further than most years and have the possibility of getting a draw against someone that the rest of the world has heard of, or maybe not, and some possible TV revenue to bolster the accounts. Ho hum.

    These games are never the walk in the park we all assume they'll be

    Well done Paul Buckle at Cheltenham though. I bet the Chairman and fans are so grateful to see him back in English football <laugh>

    Well end up playing a Blackburn or a Middlesbrough away.

    As for the crowd, many people who would go didn't because of the diabolical Sunday transport system that we have in Bristol, no trains to parsons street and a lack of buses.
    Also people have commitments on Sunday's such as jobs and Sunday football league matches.

    Although it's good for those busy on a Saturday.

    Tottenham <whistle>

    What's this fascination with Dover away? It's 3-4 hours drive and it's got nothing there apart from boats??

    I'm not a Liverpool area fan but I would love it if we drew Everton, a nice team with a cracking manager and some class acts in their squad..

    We normally seem to draw those mid table Championship teams like Blackburn or Watford. It would be nice to get a glamour tie - either a remaining lower div side, or a top prem team.
