Tough day on the artificial..

Gordano's 5 match unbeaten run came to an abrupt end as they travelled to Cheltenham. Playing on an rfu artificial pitch it was a game set up for the backs with but it was second row Royce Chiddle that got gordano in a good position with 2 first half trys. The home team are fighting for survival and are full of confidence, showed why they are quickly climbing the league with some good rugby scoring 4 trys before half time.

The second half was very much a repeat of the first with gordano being sluggish and Cheltenham playing with some freadom. Trys from Scott mcgrath and Jack Thomas gave gordano another bonus point on the road up it was there lack of focus that cost them dearly as the home team finished the game with another try from a gordano mistake. Final score 44-22

This was a bad day at the office for for gordano but they still showed they want to play good rugby and scoring 4trys when only playing to 50% of thier abbilty. A week off will hopefully recharge the batteries for when gordano will host the league leaders chew valley. 2.30ko.
