After the disappointed of our second round FA cup tie against Stockport being called off, the players do not have to wait long to get back into league action against Cheltenham.
We knocked Cheltenham out of the 1st round of the FA a cup and also out of the Johnson Paint Trophy on the 1st of September and can we make it a hat trick of wins over Cheltenham on the 1st of December.
I'm still hoping Bucks will try Zeb's and Rendell up front together with Carlisle and Tomson on the wings and Poke will start in goal, its a shame Bevan did not get a game against Stockport.
Cheltenham are going to do all they can to make sure they win this game, they may feel they deserved more from their last visit here. I feel a home win will be the outcome, with it being a Tuesday night and the weather not that good, we will do well to get a crowd above 2300.

We actually have a chance of making it two teams that we have beaten three times in this calendar year!
After playing well against Cheltenham just over three weeks ago, I too, would like to see Thomson start on the wing and therefore Zebroski up front. Benyon also did O.K. then but does he start or used as an impact sub?
With the recent additions of Smith and Zebroski, we are certainly a stronger team and although Cheltenham had a good win last time out, am hopeful that we can complete a hat trick of wins.

This is a must win game, cant afford any more draws with goodish performances. Obviously if we are losing until near the end and we grab an equaliser i will be happy but we will never move away from the bottom unless we get three points.
Would go along with your team selection Dave but reckon Bucks will chose something different, your crowd guess is about right too!

Three consecutive victories in a matter of weeks against the same side mmm.
Not sure it will happen and I would bet against it if I were neutral or indeed a betting man.
Cheltenham will be after revenge and will be a stern test after there recent hammering of Barnet. Both clubs desperately need a win a tough match in prospect.
1-1 for me.

Torbay suffered its first frost of the winter this morning and having just got in doors, I can tell you its very cold and there is a strongish wind blowing. So if you plan on going to the game tonight, make sure you wrap up nice and warm.
Its the sort of night when you get home from work and get back in the warm, you could be forgiven for not wanting to go back out again. I'm sure some may feel like that and I can't see us getting that good a gate tonight.
I can't see why it can't be three wins out of three tonight against Cheltenham, our players will want to make that happen for sure and should be champing at the bit to get on the pitch and play a game after the Stockport game was called off.
I do not think its going to be any easy game to win, after they scored the first goal in the FA cup game, I felt they were looking the better side and the ones most likely to win the game.
The two penalty's and the sending off tipped that game in our favour for sure and winning two games so far, has to give us a slight physiological edge. Heres hoping for as good a game that can be played in the conditions and three points to show for it at the final whistle.

Well done Thomson on your first goal.
at least Ellis will be dropped for Charnock and no one will moan as he picks up his 5th booking

League table looks much nicer with 4 clubs now below us. Nice result. Sounded like a great performance.
