4-0 defeat incoming...

We’d settle for a point now but really can’t see us getting anything, even with improved performances.

We’ve still got a poor 45 minutes in us, as seen at Bradford and you’d expect someone like Swindon to punish us for that, unlike Bradford, who were equally as bobbins...

We did nothing against you that day. Probably in part due to the rut we’d found ourselves in combined with a lack of quality, but I’d say more because your of your outstanding side in comparison. Grant and Doughty bossed the game, they are top class for this division.

I think we can give you a good game on Saturday now though. We are a completely different side these days with a new mindset, and we have Vernam, showing form worthy of a league above ours. If you beat us I’d be surprised if it’s by more than 1 goal.

I would be happy with a draw. We have already had a couple of notable away wins (Exeter and Colchester) and its unlikely we can keep on pulling this results off against top sides on their own patch.

Holloway said he isn't afraid of losing and I think that's the way any team should play. If you fear losing you end up parking the bus and it often doesn't work.  Let's hope we give you lot a run for your money and it's an entertaining game. A point would be good but another Vernam hat-trick would be better.

I have booked a budget hotel in Swindon on Friday night based on not wanting to drive 350 miles in a day so less post match travel stress I hope. First visit to STFC and looking forward to a competitive game with further integration of our new signings. A point will be a bonus.

Gutted to miss this one as quite like Swindon as a town. One of the best curry houses I've been to (the biplob!) and some great pubs to boot.

And also helps that I've never Seen town lose there either. First time I went was a 3-3 draw with a somewhat cracking free kick from galli I seem to recall.

The biplob is absolutely fantastic. Haven’t been in a while, but fond memories - although I normally regret it on the toilet the day after.

Colchester have done the double over Swindon already this season winning 3-0 at Swindon and 3-1 at home, they also beat them 3-0 in the EFL Cup, so we're nailed on for a win obviously.

We all know that's how football works don't we.  


Conkers Rules?
