    That was a clever free kick.

    We've not had much of the ball in the last ten minutes. Need to do more to get the ball. We're getting into the same pattern as previous matches, going back into ourselves and defending. Need to be trying to get on the front foot or we'll concede.

    Commentators are dead right.

    Need to keep the ball on the ground today.

    They're struggling because they're playing these crossfield balls in the air which aren't working.

    Cheltenham commentators are baffling bias in our favor. Still talking about us dominating when we haven't had possession for 15 minutes

    Definitely giving away too many free kicks.

    Hornby looking dodgy.

    Bit scrappy and we do need to do better in final third but look pretty comfortable

    Difficult conditions. Need to stop giving up, 'easy' free kicks

    Actually, it looks like he’s grown a dodgy tash. Maybe that’s it.

    He’s getting wound up a bit too much. Needs to calm down as you say, otherwise he’ll end up seeing red.

    We're creating absolutely zip.

    Need to pick it up second half.

    Very good start to this half but haven’t created anything since goal. That Tozer throw-in is a hell of a weapon.

    The wind is a problem for both sides. I'm not sure it'll be an advantage having it behind us 2nd half but let's see. We've managed well so far.

    Despite all our control we've not shown much cutting edge.
    Their keeper has only done one thing and that was pick the ball out of the net
