Last feeble, desperate attempt.... any forest green tickets available, then will take and pay/collect wherever convenient.

That's me good to go. Just had a bacon sandwich so I don't die of meat deficiency and filled the hip flask.
Safe journey every one!

For those unable to make it, remember, no matter who Clive says the opponents are, we're playing Forest Green!
What's in the flask though?

Not sure what time to leave. Will probably leave at noon, sounds as good as any time. Going down the A46, then M5. Going to try and park in the village and then walk up the hill. Haven't told my son about that bit yet.

It's grey and wet here and there by the sounds of it. Hopefully, the rain won't be too bad. These are the matches I'm told to avoid!

We’re heading for the Britannia in nailsworth by the ground. Still require two tickets, so if anyone has spares and will be there or at the ground, then let me know and will take them. Thanks

Hey, have a last minute spare for the away end - anyone travelled up for home tickets and want one on the terrace? Gonna be at the ground pretty close to KO.
Cheers!

Forest Green have lost 8 of their last 10 games but have won their last 2 games at home, albeit against bottom half teams:

They're unbeaten at home against all their relegation rivals but have lost to every team they've played in the top half of the table, failing to score in 6 of the 8 games highlighted:

In terms of goal margins, their results are mostly tight - 11 of their 15 home matches settled by 2 goals or less with only newport giving them a 0-4 thrashing

Their defence has been leaky, conceding at least one goal in 87% of their home matches and have conceded the opening goal in 77% of their matches. All that said, they have signed a whole new team in January and with Rueben Reid and Doidge up front there is always going to be danger. I think our best chance will be to get in front early so that they have to attack. They are particularly vulnerable in the first 15 minutes:

I'm going to go for an uncomfortable 0-2 with a long period of time between the 2 goals.

Do you make these and update them yourself? They’re really good. Have a Kozil and Becherovka.
