    V Stratford Town. Home.

    A very tough game tomorrow. Stratford are the only side in the division not to have lost away this season, they have won 2 and drawn 4. I watched them beat Larkhall a few years ago to come up to this division and they looked a decent side then. They are very solid and have a couple of decent strikers. But it's a game we will be looking to take maximum points. The way we play and move the ball at pace it will take a very good side to shackle our front two. Confidence is sky high throughout the squad.  Good luck tomorrow to Mark, Tom and the lads. 😎

    Clearly Stratford are in a rich vein of form at the moment, but then so are we. As Jono rightly pointed out, any team will struggle to hold Andy and Pratty at the moment. My biggest wish for tomorrow is that the good people of Chippenham turn up in force to cheer on boy's who deserve a big crowd to play in front of. We also have a full house in the VIP Lounge for a meal before the game tomorrow, so let's hope we get our biggest league gate of the season so far.  COYMB

    Looking forward to the game tomorrow, saw Stratford at Cirencester on Tuesday. Lot of pace up front with very strong defence. Bit like us really

    Was a great game - we thoroughly deserved that win.  Shame we went to sleep briefly to finish 2-1 but we are up to 3rd place and have a game in hand. Slough slipping up 1-1 and we are now back in the chase.

    Pratt's goal for the second must be one of the best if not the best individual goal I have seen at HP for us in many years watching the team.

    Agree great game we dominated hit bar and post there was no way Pratty  was going to square that ball great goal squeezed in near post. 3 more points. But let's not forget Richards goal off the bar then smashed in.

    Really enjoyable afternoon, well done boys all of you played superbly. Looked organised at the back, won the midfield battle and up front absolutely dominated them. 3 points in the bag and we go again Tuesday to a tough game away from home against Banbury.

    They came set up to maintain their unbeaten away record but as soon as we broke through we could have had 3 or 4 as the game opened up as Stratford tried to get back into it. Great all round performance, difficult to pick out a man of the match as everyone put in a shift. All in all a very enjoyable afternoon. " We're Chippenham old boys we sing when we want."

    Re: V Stratford Town. Home.

    Got to agree a very good all round team performance. We look a very strong side and the way the ball is played at pace from back to front, quite often along the dec teams are struggling to cope. And with  Pratties sheer  pace and Sands pace and aggression they are a class double act and very difficult for defenders to handle. The back four look rock solid and we still have Connor to come back and push for a place. The midfield is full of running and the players have started backing each other up and covering each other where required. Banbury will be a huge test on Tuesday as they looked one of the best sides I have seen this season. Having said that I think we missed Prattie more than they missed there player, after both sides were reduced to 10 men. The crowd was slightly up, it is taking time to get people back, but good winning football will gradually get people to come back and bring in the new faces.  Well done Mark, Tom and the lads.  😎
