DUFF DELIGHT AS TOWN WIN DERBY CLASH

CHELTENHAM Town boss Michael Duff said he believes the race for the League Two title is wide open after his side defeated Gloucestershire rivals Forest Green.

Goals from Will Boyle and Andy Williams put the Robins in command at the Jonny-Rocks Stadium before Aaron Collins’ penalty restored hope for the away side.

But Cheltenham had done just enough for a first victory over their near neighbors since 1998 and it lifted them above Rovers into the automatic promotion places.

“I do think it is more open, due to circumstances and the weirdness of this season generally,” Duff said.

“You are getting strange results and home advantage doesn’t seem to count for anything at the minute with no crowds.

“It’s not that I think the league is particularly good, bad or indifferent, but we know how hard it is to build momentum because crowds can help you get that going.

“We don’t know what’s coming next, but we’ll just get on with it and do our best.”
