Good performance and we were very fast around the pitch - did well with a depleted side and thought that Jones had his best match so far. Lost the pace and rythm with the subs coming on - we lost the balance a bit at that point. All in all we should be pleased as I believe we are "punching above our weight"

It did feel like a defeat but, having seen the starting line-up, I might have taken a point at kick-off as I thought our line-up looked a bit light-weight against an improving Frome side who'd had a blank weekend. Having said that I thought we played very well in phases and with a bit more composure in front of goal should have been out of sight. Jones was excellent and Campbell and Allen had their best games to date in a Chippenham shirt imho. It showed we've got a decent squad and should be capable of having a real go at the play-off positions come the end of the season. Long way to go yet though. Frome won't be in the lower reaches for too long so at least we didn't lose to that shower.
On another matter, when will referees clamp down on foul and abusive language? Their Manager really does need to keep himself in check. I know it's an emotional game, and he's a nice fella, but if he had shown the same level of aggression on the pitch as he does in the dug-out he'd have played Premier League. The referees just seem to take it these days. Different story in rugby. Why not football?

Two points dropped, I know we had alot missing ( especially Bally) but our build up play was let down by poor play in front of goal. We have a tough month ahead and need to be more clinical with our finishing. Ryan is great to watch and isn't affraid to shot from anywhere and with Andy back and a few more minutes on pitch he should be back to his best. We are an exciting team to watch and deserve bigger crowds, so come on Bluebirds fly to the top again.

Such a one sided game? Our manager needs to curb HIS language?
Not sure what game you were watching, we had as many chances as you most of ours in the first half, granted second half you came flying out the blocks and at times were battering us but Chitty only really had to make one cracking save right near the end to tip an effort over the bar.
And as for language etc perhaps you should stand behind your goal and listen to your GK, and centre backs 5 and 6, over our 3 recent games there language, use of arms/elbows, constant squealing to the ref and linesman has been embarrasing at times, perhaps they should concentrate on defending rather than reffing the game

Wait till you see the refs in the South West next season, Shocking.
