Haven't celebrated that much for ages when we scored a goal
Loved it, first half was crap, Flint looked off the mark as did JMac in the first half, pumped too much long and didn't threaten them at all and how Hayter (I think) missed 2 almost sitters kept us in the game.
Myself, Pumbaa, Herthab, Flash and Victor Meldrew were all saying at half time we will be happy with a draw, it was cold and the pitch was like a slashed bus seat (Mr Flash) and that Yeovil seemed they wanted it more.......well turns out we were very wrong!
2nd half what a turn around, we played the ball on the floor and passed it around so much better than them all over the pitch. Flint and JMac were back at the races and in the 2nd half we didn't look like conceding, even with Foders insisting on dribbling with the ball before kicking it, despite this I havent felt that confident in a Swindon keeper for years....possibly ever.
The Penalty was right in front of us and I personally, and all around me, thought Roberts certainly looked for the penalty and there was practically zero contact at all, but the ref gave it and Rooney cooly slotted it in, brilliant!
Collins came on and really made a difference up front with his running and strength and deserved his goal at the end.
The passion shown by the players was evident at the end, I was very proud to be part of it even though I have a bruised jaw and hand from the celebrations (thanks to Pumbaa!).
Hopefully we can kick on a bit now....again!
Last word goes to Nathan Thompson....who other than 1 misstimed tackle which earned him a booking (a tackle which looked like he was getting revenge for an earlier bad tackle on him) he did not put a foot wrong all game, this lad is a star in the making, the hardest tackling fullback since Rambo!
Well done to the 550 ish Town fans that bothered to turn up, it was a great night in the end.
You didn't tell me about the jaw!!!!!
Fuck....sorry fella....but it was worth it!
