Swindon Town FC vs Hereford United FC Official Matchday Thread

[STFC_Gazza]

There is some prick in the town end who looks like cat stevens who constantly yells PAYNTER YOUR SHIT, PAYNTER YOU USELES TWAT, and keeps yelling BRING BACK BREZ .. yes because he was ace in goal wasn't he?

[Rich Pullen]

More points, lovely stuff. Not letting my guard down as there's still much to be done but I'm a happy chappy tonight.

[Bogus Dave]

why is atwell getting stick when its the linesman at fault?

Why is atwell getting stick when he wasn;t the ref?

I thought hereford were edging it untill we scored our first. Then we pissed it. Kanu's best game for us, and timlin is being very impressive as of late

[Reg Smeeton]

The only dodgy bit for me is that we only have 3 home games left, Yeovil have 6 and most of the others have more home than away left, we really need to pick up a win or two on the road quickly

For most of the season we've been generally better away than at home, sadly, this now seems to be changing. I'd say a minimum of 2 points from the next 2 on the road...3 would be OK...anything more and you could see us staying up.

smith didn't have much to do and looked short on confidence. he didn't look any better than brezovan has when i've seen him.

i thought hereford's keeper was pretty good, despite conceding three (or four)

[DiV]

we did what we had to do. we got the points and did alright in doing so.

Cox second goal was well offside but it didnt matter in the end and lets be honest I wasnt half as bad as the Ifil kicks the ball, penalty!

I thought Atwell reffed well as someone said, lino game the goal...

Phil Smith seemed shakey but did alright, same with Big Kev.

Timlin and OTJ did well in the middle, lots of simple passing and breaking up of play. Having two holding in there gives our wingers more licence to attack it still annoys me HRK doesnt get back quick enough.

There is a little gap between us and the dreaded dotted line but there is still a way to go.

It was never a goal. All I can think is that the lino decided Cox was onside because the ball took a touch off the Hereford player. If he thought that, he was still wrong, but I can think of no other explanation.

It wasn't an incredible performance but it was professional. We defended reasonably well and looked to attack down the wings. Timlin did well in the middle (as did Diagouraga for them) breaking up play, and McNamee and Kanu both put plenty of crosses in. Cox had a good game too, and Greer deserves a mention - the guy is class.

Its also much colder in the DRS than i'd thought it would be

[Bogus Dave]

[Samdy Gray]

It was a bit garish Dave.

[sonicyouth]

crazy students!

[Bogus Dave]

I am but a trend setter.

[DiV]

a technicoloured gayshirt I believe is the correct term.

for Cox second goal, it looked like Paynter was onside and abouts to turn and score then Cox back heeled it and my first thought was, what a dick he's offside and Paynter isnt.

Touch without control of the ball = Offside
Controlled first by a Hereford player = Onside
