<strong>Unique</strong> Football The Robins<br />

@CTFCofficial<br />

36 37<br />

This is how the the following games look like for The Robins:<br />

What a horror story, here we are on 23rd February in 21st place with <strong>Cheltenham</strong><br />

no wins in eight games. <strong>Cheltenham</strong> almost managed a win away at Accrington<br />

for Russell Milton and Steve Elliott. Substitute Shay McCartan's second-half strike<br />

for Accrington denied visitors <strong>Cheltenham</strong> a first win in eight games. Russell Milton's<br />

side took the lead via a short corner when Wes Burns looped a header into<br />

the centre of the net, over on-rushing goalkeeper Scott Davies. McCartan, who<br />

replaced Seamus Conneely, levelled for Accrington after a swift counter-attack on<br />

the hour mark. Stanley had chances to win the game but Josh Windass fired wide<br />

and was later denied by goalkeeper Trevor Carson. <strong>Cheltenham</strong>, who announced<br />

on Monday that caretaker boss Milton and his assistant Steve Elliot will take<br />

charge until May following the departure of Paul Buckle, remain in the bottom two<br />

but are now level on points with 22nd-placed Tranmere, who host Shrewsbury on<br />

Saturday. <strong>Cheltenham</strong> Town boss Russell Milton told BBC Radio Gloucestershire:<br />

"I'm disappointed, but proud for going ahead and they scored after our best spell<br />

in the second half. "Overall I'm really pleased with the boys, the effort and desire<br />

was first class, it's 100% better than it was a couple of weeks ago. "It's a step in the<br />

right direction, we've stopped the rot, we go on from here - simple as that - and<br />

we will."<br />

The next six fixtures will decide if The Robins can get out of the current desperate<br />

state, with Carlisle in 21st place a key game to start with. Then Mansfield in 19th<br />

place and Newport away who are in the lofty heights of eightieth place, Portsmouth<br />

in 14th place and Exeter in 13th place are must win games.<br />

Time for <strong>Cheltenham</strong> team to show some feel fighting spirit as we can still get out<br />

of this situation, we can do it !!<br />

Come on You Robins <br />
