    I don't know Fordy as I'm no anywhere near as involved as I used to be. Why don't you ask Paula direct?

    In 37 games this season i can count on hand the amount of performances i would expect of a promotion winning side, thats my measuring stick of where this squad rates. Even at home, where results are good, we couldn't even game manage against the 9 men of Plymouth. Since then Plymouth have scored 6 in two games on a decent surface. Yeah that mudbath of ours really is a leveller.
    We are in as bad a position as when Parkinson first took over, i think McCall has quickly realised and is under no illusion just how rotten this club has become.

    Don't worry our players will be walking around with their shorts around their ankles.

    Normal day at the office.

    McCall needs to prove he's a good manager also. It's far too early to judge him but yeah I think he think what's happened here since I left?

    Our home form has masked our extremely poor away form but when you think about our home form we have struggled in terms performance. I can't remember many games when it's been easy for us.

    The reason we are poor away is because the team lacks bottle and fight. You have Reeves that doesn't tackle, AOC how doesn't keep the line and no real leaders in the team. We are a soft team.

    McCall has his work cut

    Disagree with you. I think personal hygiene is a very good thing.

    Ages ago I commented on the main toilets at the back of Block E in the JCT (Main/South Parade) Stand. The water is mainly cold, often no soap, the water pressure In the taps very poor, with the sole ‘hand drier’ located where people queue and even then it has a pathetic air flow.

    Cheltenham is a smaller player, in live spectator attendance at sport, than football. Average weekly attendances at Premier League games is around 450,000, add onto that the Championship, League One and League Two. In 2016/7 the Championship gather, was about 260,000 a week.

    No mate, personal hygiene is an extremely important thing think what I am trying to say is that it takes a killer virus for people to take it seriously.

    The toilets at VP are a disgrace and I can see clubs getting fined for poor hygiene standards in the near future

    Cheltenham will have around 240k people visiting it over 4 days.

    I agree. It is unacceptable it always has been, but now it is actually increasing the risk to the fans. I have no idea whether Paula has sorted hand sanitizer’s or not. I do not see why fans should ask her whether this is happening. I am sure the club are aware of the risks engulfing the country and it is they who should be sorting it and trying to encorouge the fans to come to the stadium and mitigating the fact that their washing facilities are sub standard.

    Agree, if the club were getting find for poor hygiene then they would of been all over like a rash years ago but they negotiated it and now it's just in a shocking state.

    I would have no problem moving from VP if it meant better faculties.

    However, Gibbs & Rhodes(or his replacement) need to do some serious talking soon because VP is looking a right dump!

    You're right we shouldn't have to contact the club over hygiene issues.

    Let's be honest, who really cares at the moment? It's quite clear the club lives from day to day with no real ambition of bettering itself. A lot of our support seem happy with that cos it's the Bradford way innit.

    Well I'm not happy with what is being dished up and although we know the feelings of our head cook,I feel it's about time we heard from the Chef himself. We deserve a better menu than this. Less entrée, more main.
