A defeat was the result before that one, 0-3 away at Curzon Ashton.

4-5-7 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Gloucester City in their Vanarama National League North matches away.

Gloucester City won their last game, 2-0 versus Spennymoor Town played at home. Those three points felt sweet as this club had gone three league matches without victory.

Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Chester.
