Swindon striker Rory Fallon says some of the team's younger players need to improve quickly if they are to have a chance of avoiding relegation.
The Robins have lost their last eight games and are bottom of League One.

Fallon told BBC Radio Swindon: "We've got a lot of kids but they have got to start growing up quickly.

"We're in a relegation battle whether we like it or not and the younger members of the team need to start bucking up their ideas."

it a bit harsh but he has a point! the younger players are the bulk of the team and without them we're doomed....

Fuck me that's contraversial, but to be honest he can say what he fucking likes as he is the only player in the team that has totally convinced me he's got the quality and attitude to warrant a place in our squad.  The man is a fucking legend, even more so if you consider the crap he's put up with here in the last season and a half.

He's right though - maybe alluding to some of the player's nights out on the town?  That really needs to stop in such a situation as this - I'm not one to talk, but when you've lost 8 games in a row Iffy should be doing everything to turn us around.

EDIT:  And yes, after an 8 game losing streak, the captaincy maybe needs to be changed around?  Fallon looks a good candidate to me.

Rory is still an average player, it's just that he stands out like beacon compared to the rest of the dross that we have. I don't think it's through a lack of effort that we're in this bad run. The plain and simple truth is our squad is shit.

i disagree. i think he's come on leaps and bounds, he was SHITE last year, but he's had a decent summer, went back to NZ and did things the way he likes, and he's on fire this year. i'm well impressed.

Bearing in mind he is getting only one chance to score a match, this is rather impressive.  he is above some good names too.

I have ALWAYS said that Rory was underrated, and as soon as SSP left I decided to but a STFC home shirt with Fallon on the back.

Then realised I didn't have any money, and I still don't get paid for over 2 weeks  :cry:

But he is a top guy and what this situation needs. To score that many goals in a team at the bottom is very impressive and gives us all hope. If Roberts CAN get on a run we'll be right back amongst 'em!
