Cheltenham 1 - 1 Notts

[Chris]

Elvis Hammond's late equaliser denied Notts County victory at Cheltenham.

Luke Rodgers fired the Magpies in front with a clinical finish after latching on to a long ball from Brendan Moloney.

Cheltenham responded well and grazed the top of County's bar through Michael Townsend's volley before Barry Hayles rattled a post with a fierce strike.

Hammond levelled the scores with 15 minutes left, the striker spinning to fire in from close range after Julian Alsop flicked on Lee Ridley's throw.

News Report

Sadly the football league show only shown the goal (well taken) and the equalizer which appeared to be offside to me. Hammond looked to be past our last defender, swing back as the ball came across and he managed to latch on. If he was or not I cannot say and until we get more fans on here, I doubt I'll ever know.

It is difficult to tell from TV clips whether the ref has made a correct decision unless they show from several cameras.If the officials make a mistake it's too late anyway.These decisions tend to even out over a season but are annoying just the same.A point away from home is always welcome ,much better than losing by 5 or 6 goals.I was pleased by the Rams result as they can now go forward with a little more optimism & hopefully get a few players back to fitness. I don't know what the feeling is at Blackburn & there are no matches due to the internationals.We are in October & the league tables are now beginning to take some shape.By the end of November the winners & losers will become more apparent.I think the Rams & Forest will be mid table & Notts will be at least in the top 6
