I don't know? Luke Rodgers - a lot of unfulfilled early promise Ryan Lowe - 16 goals in a relegated team Paul Ifil - Decent right mid John Oster - Worth a look David Sousa - Likewise Alton Thelwell - Not sure why Orient are releasing him There's not a lot in there worthy of interest I suppose.

Shamelessly nicked from Cheltenham's forum, (I'm even too lazy to type it out again so cutting and pasting). Because of the financial difficulties the club has had, and the resulting loss of the scouting network, MA has asked fans to email suggestions of potential signings, so there a few similar posts.

According to Redknapp if you put your arm up to protect your face (while not looking at the ball) after the ball is blasted at your head from 4 yards away. Its a definate stone wall penalty. I'd like to find a single human being who wouldn't do the same thing, apart from ST whos not afraid of anything .

A referee from Norway isn't qualified to ref a match involoving a team from the greatest footballing nation in the Universe. Afterall their league is shit part time stuff.

Gullit loking quite embarassed by the undignified rants from Souness and Redknapp

That was probably me

YYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

I dunno I guess its the first goal your getting at there and IMO Langfield should have been screaming at him to leave it. He does seem to have tremendous bad luck coupled with inexperience and the mistakes that come with that. However there does seem to be an unease in the team when he is playing and Jimmy playing Seve at the back kind of hints that he doesn't think Considine is good enough for a sustained run in the side.

http://sports.inquirer.net/professional/professional/view/20090506-203500/Arsenal-fan-hangs-himself-in-Kenya Bit extreme! Surely he could have organised a few of his mates to get together, print of a few bits of paper with AWMG on and stand outside the Emirates.

Ian Westlake is available this summer, would be a good signing I think? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Westlake

He He! don't think I meant ironic. I suppose the reason I used it was because I support Cheltenham. So I suppose it's slightly intersting for me that Aberdeen (my first team) are being linked (albeit by somebody on the internet) to a player who replaced the Cheltenham captain at his last club. As an aside, I would have taken a 28 yr old Finners at Pittodire.

Can't say I can picture him, although the name rings a bell. I must have seen him play for Lincoln I would have thought, and probably looked him up in the program to see if he was related to Terry. One season above League Two at 28 would suggest he is not the sort of player we should be looking at. Although the Lincoln side he played for were a decent team despite being a right mix match of cheapo cheapo signings. Ironically enough he probably got his chance in the football league after being signed to replace a Cheltenham bound John Finnigan.

As Jimmy was allegedly at the Swindle v Gas game last weekend http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/s/swindon_town/8024244.stm The Swindon player being released. Phil Smith and Peter Berzovan are Keepers so doubt it was them Jamie Vincent is old so hopefully not him Craig Easton would tick the Jute reject box Barry Corr Doubtful Kanyuka??? I know fuck all about him J-P McGovern looked decent in the Johnstones paint last season but do we need a LM. Ifil I've mentioned It would seem Gordon Greer was the most likely scouting target???

Is it just me or is Brian Kerr one of those players that seems to have made his name through his appearance in Fitba Manager.

Aye was a short term deal, but saw an article with him "I want to commit to Colchester, Tema on the up, my family have moved too and settled in the area". Or as I read it "I won't make the same mistake as last year, leaving me unemployed for 6 months".

Not as often as I'd like with a 1 yr old and a (just) 4 yr old plus work commitments that often fall into the weekend. Probably a good thing this season though . Next will hopefully be better as the boy said he would like to come with me now (although I think that may have been because I said he could bring his PSP with him). This season has been a bit of an anomoly in L1 terms with Leicester, Leeds and such a strong posh side. Although I can only see it getting worse with the money in the Championship nowadays. As I said on the Hat I'd be happy enough if Jimmy was at the Swindle game looking at big Kev Amankwaah a solid, pacy right back that I think would be happy enough at RM and CB. At one point he was being talked up as the next Lee Dixon but a car crash put paid to that. Or Jerel Ifil would be decent. Cheltenham's very own Michael Townsend looked back to his best at CB since he came back from his loan after an up and down season involving falling outs with both the fans and the management. Against Oldham he had Lee Hughes in his back pocket I suppose Steve Kabba stood out for Oldham, Zak Whitbred won everything in the air for Millwall at our place, although the best time for this sort of thing would be right after the games. Difficult judging opposition players on one game though often its only strikers, keepers or the ref you notice.

Save your time the best player in League One this season was George Boyd, but as with Makail-Smith, Jermaine Beckford, Matty Fryatt, Rickie Lambert, Fabien Delph, Aarron McClean etc. he will be out-with our budget.

I wouldn't bother with him, another Smith. Wants his money for nothing...

Oh and apologies for thinking you were chk chk chk, if your not him (which it appears your not).

Yer nae that dancer twat that buffed yon Kaplinski woman are ye? After a wee google...

Taking into account the millions of afchat posters who aren't renewing their season tickets, it seems like a good idea from a financial point of view.

My Dad turned to me after the Bayern game and said it'll be another three years before we see another one of these. With the players we've lost and are losing, a new team will have to be built. No one wants to hear such harsh realities after a game like that, but he was probably right.

Could go one better and have a home bar and an away bar (Simmie's Bar with buckfast on tap ).

I was having this conversation the other day and totally agree. However, earlier in the season Cheltenham were visited by Millwall. After one of their players scored he ran to the home end knocked the chips out of one of the lads who stands at the front before giving a really high pitched whoop. He never got a card but if that's isn't text book inciting the crowd...
