Just Back

Well what a night Town played some great attacking football against what looked a half decent side.The Town side were clearly sent out with the instructions to press high up the pitch and create a fast tempo and it nearly worked in the first 20 seconds. Very enjoyable first half with a well taken goal by Matt a screamer from them for the first a howler from Macca for their second but Town should have led 4-2. Second half I feared the worst WRONG as Town maintained the tempo and the game went end to end with us I thought deserving the 3 points thanks to a good team goal a scrambled goal and Macca redeeming himself with a good late save. How you pick a MOTM from that is difficult but like a few others Summerfield for me he dictated the tempo he won every tackle and drove the team forward reminiscent of Cunnington at his best he really was THAT good.Special shout out to Davies who along with Mills got up and down and delivered some quality balls in.UTM and plenty of   Town fans.MORE

I didn’t mean it as a positive. Looked more to me like he was thanking those who’d turned up and maybe thinking he might have mucked it up a bit. Very sparsely populated BP last night - wouldn’t surprise me if there was only twice as many home fans in the Pontoon as there was away fans in the Osmond looking at both ends!

Quoted from OneLove

On a serious note, 18 games for a good performance to start since Chesterfield away. I still won't be buzzing to get back to watch town in a hurry, as much as it guts me, through thick and thin as they say, still not convinced by Slade, Wilko and Fenty. Hope this bites me on the bottom!

I walked to the game pouring scorn on going to Notts County and wasting money and came out badgering my mate to take us to Barnet it`s a funny old game as someone once said.UTM

Looking at the highlights, I see how they had so much space for their equaliser. Unfortunately, Rose fluffed a regulation headed clearance, Summerfield moved across to cover and when the ball then looped back out of the challenge we had nobody in the middle to close the player down. A combination of a mistake, bad luck then brilliant skill. Oh well, at least Rose was there on hand to atone for his slight error at the end.

The Sky Sports report said it was his first goal for the club, which will be a surprise to the other teams he's scored against this season!

It was Mills header wasnt it??

Just had a read of the Swindon forum. Many are blaming their keeper for not making more of an effort for 2 of our goals. IMO he was the sole reason we didnt get 5 or 6 last night

I headed to the game last night without that much hope or expectation. It's been battered out of me with our last few performances, but I came away thoroughly entertained.

Stand-out performers for me were Matt, DJ, Dembele, Summerfield and Davies but the whole team played well really. Even McKeown made up for his gaffe with a great save at 2 all.

I suppose that's why we all like the game so much, just a shame there were less than 3000 Town fans there.

Not unless Mills has changed his appearance somewhat.

Some Swindon fans are obviously flipping idiots. How could he have stopped any of those goals? He even made another good save from Jones' shot before Rose nabbed the winner!

Quoted from psgmariner

A thoroughly enjoyable evening's entertainment.

Ben Davies was excellent at left back but the main thing that won us that game was our wingers. Both unplayable at times.

McKeown had an absolute nightmare with equaliser and looked VERY relieved when the winner went in. His habit of letting in howlers was the only real downer and to be fair he also made some good saves.

Agree about the wingers I was just about to post the same, it goes to show what you can do with two wide players who can cause defences problems rather than having to rely on Dembele all the time.

I would also add that I thought Matt had his best game since Accrington.
