National Anthem in progess of being played prior to Kick-Off

Charlie spotted in the Away end nursing a hangover, shouting out: "Not now chaps, not now"

Oh Cheltenham Kick-Off the match, and we're underway

Henry punts the ball forward, but JRS gives away a free kick whilst chalenging midway in their half

CL_Phantom

Cheltenham win a corner.

Cheltenham corner

Long ball forward, which Jackson chases (Was a lost cause), but he hooks his foot round the ball to cross, and his effort deflects out

Cheltenham worked the ball well from the corner

Results in Sessegnon blocking for another

CL_Phantom

Cleared, but a ball back in sees a cross blocked and out for another corner

Thanks updates FA and CL_Phantom, I am on my phone today so not much help

Nice run from JRS there, shame Fraser couldn't have done more with it.

Set piece again isnt dealt with... Goes through a crowd of players somehow missing everyone

We then break, with Fraser darting into the box, his cross is cut out

CL_Phantom

A third corner bounced across the 6 yard box, cleared, we break with JRS and Fraser but nothing comes of it.

Fraser always looks like hes running in treacle

ForeverAddickted

I do like the White shirts | Black shorts | Red socks combo

Have we been using the red socks when wearing white shirts this season, or are we wearing the red because Cheltenham are in white socks?

ForeverAddickted

Charlton have a bit of possession, before Thomas tries to switch play over to Egbo on the right

But gives away a throw-in on halfway instead

Hectic first 10 minutes, Cheltenham having majority of possession, but we have created best opening, both sides looking up for it today..

CL_Phantom

Sess breaks into Cheltenham half, plays it back to Thomas who crosses it out of play on the opposite side...

According to the commentators it's the latter FA.

Goal for Charlton but offside...

Lovely control and finish from Fraser collecting the ball from Morgan though

Goalkeeper perhaps didnt make much effort seeing the flag

Oxford 1-0 Accas

Peterborough winning.

Shame Fraser was offside after that ball from Morgan. Hopefully that won't be the only time we get the ball in the net this afternoon.

eastterrace6168

Close offside, or Fraser would have put us one up, close though

ForeverAddickted

We're keeping the ball a lot better now

eastterrace6168

Morgan can't play a forward pass sometimes..

ForeverAddickted

Cheltenham almost create a shooting chance outside of the box

Morgan with a decent tackle to deny the opportunity

ForeverAddickted

Henry doing a bit better today... Keeping things a bit more simple

ForeverAddickted

Cheltenham win a Free Kick on Halfway after a strong challenge from Egbo

eastterrace6168

We are playing an awful lot of possession stuff, but not really creating anything, we need to push higher

ForeverAddickted

Updates might be a bit slow from me... Just about to have some Pepperoni pizza for luncheon
