Quoted from wiggers
Three games played since Limbrick took over. 1point and 0 goals scored. Why are people happy with that? A goalless draw at home to Cheltenham ffs. Unless we get a fresh face in we are doomed.........


Any bad run leads to a loss of confidence and in addition where town are concerned we have also been playing total crap with no evidence of a formation or style of play.

Clearly, in his 3 games in charge, it is clear Limbrick is aware of our shortcomings and has done his best to address them with the resources available. What fans are “happier” with is the fact that we are trying to play more football, are trying to keep the ball on ground more often, have square pegs in square holes and all appear to be 100% behind the Manager.

We have played two matches against sides in the play offs on good runs and have given both a reasonable game.

Are fans happy with our season to date, no, but turning it around takes time and IMO the reference to 1 point from two games means you are being over critical of Limbrick but you are fully entitled to your viewpoint. There are roots of recovery which at least gives us something to build on and maybe we might in the near future actually be worth watching once again.

Somebody asked if there were any potential managers in the stands?

Yes, about 2,500 of them. 😃😏

I think some fans' expectations are too high.  The first goal is to stop the rot  - conceding goals and creating chances. To do this the players need to regain their confidence.  Lack of confidence doesn't happen after the loss of one game and , as a result, nor does getting it back.  I'd like to see one of the FFS brigade take over at Swindon and I expect nothing but a 4-0 win.   Somebody mentioned that it's ludicrous we have noone  replace Max out wide.  Well, we don't!  Moaning about it can't get it, can it?  AL can't nip down the dole office in the morning and ask if there's a winger who fancies a shout come Saturday.  Two good performances albeit without the best result is a promising start.  Slagging off the team will only hinder their getting their confidence back.
