Franks

Two second half goals from Jonathan Franks got us a well deserved draw at Cheltenham and keeps us cruising towards the play-offs ...

The home side had gone ahead  as early as the fourth minute thanks to Jermaine McGlashan  followed by a header from Kemar Roofe.

Franks got us back in it when he latched onto a clearance on 555 m inutes from Flinders and calmly slotted the ball passed Brown in the home goal.

His equaliser was a beauty. He dazzled the defence on the edge of the box to create some space and then curled a shot in off the post.

Then he almost won the game in the closing minutes but he stabbed his shot just wide after being put into space by Monkhouse.

Now its the cup replay.
