The reason we are rubbish

[Rich Pullen]

We are losing 1-0 at the moment.

which keeper is playing?

[Samdy Gray]

Mark Scott.

[Spencer_White]

Either way, if he does that it should help, but we as fans must also accept we might not be "entertained" the way we have demanded.

Do we??? Pretty low on my priorities. In my experience all Swindon fans care about is winning. That why some well established fans were enraged at the supporters back end of last season. We played some good stuff, but the supporters (myself included) just didnt get excited about it. Ive got to be honest, I loved it when Wise was here. The football was nothing special, but the team spirit was exceptional and we had installed in us a tremendous determination to win. Just had that mission statement that made us worth following.

There is a lack of leadership on and off the pitch. Were drifting. Absent minds.

But the defence is shit, thats the main problem. This is not an irrational despair. People are getting seriously sick of this.

Tina Fey of 30 Rock and SNL. Or as Dave and FB would argue, it's a cow!

Disagree Spence, the thing I loved the most about the Ossie and Hoddle days (and Gorman to a certain extent) is that we were winning (well not under JG but you get the picture), and we were winning playing superb football, on the deck, decent attacking football.  Winning is obviously important but playing the right way is a very close second.  I love the fact we're trying to play footie the right way, just hope MM can get the consistency sorted.

[Don Rogers Shop]

We had players capable of that though.these players were bought by wise and sturrock with the intention of totally different football

[leefer]

Agree Jan..thats why i think Corr will struggle to get a regular slot,Corr would almost certainly be route one,though the thaught of him getting on the end of McManees crosses is a plus.

[Spencer_White]

Yeah, it was fantastic, Janaage. But it had to be, we were gunning for top flight football back then.

The other thing about those teams was that they were full of true leaders of men.

We are spineless. Sometimes pretty, but flimsy. And to be honest, take out McNamee, which one bad tackle could easily do, and there's a lot else on the great football front. Everyones got their own priorites.

Going back to the mentality of Swindon fans point. The football was still good under Gorman, but our support melted away. Its been said before, but Swindon fans can be a bit thick. Seen us boo a team off half time loads of times at half time when weve played well, but weve gone a goal down. All Town fans care about is winning. Im just as bad, when you get absolute blindo you miss the bits of skill anyway, but you still get the goals and the blood and thunder tackles.

I haven't seen enough of him to be able to comment with much weight, however i did go to Bournemouth away last season and the goal he scored was far from route one football.

However, one strike does not maketh the striker. Arrieta scored a corker, as did Royce Brownlie...

[Spencer_White]

Never mind Bournemouth and Yeovil. Without Barry Corr we'd probably still be in League 2!

I notice Blair is not playing in tonights reserve match

Which is a shame because Jimmy Quinn was in attendance tonight, maybe he was watching Corr.
