Dunno, I'd like to see Nicolau get a chance, liked the look of him when he came on.  I do think we should try to find room for Robbo though, when he dropped into the 'hole' for the last 15 minutes he looked dangerous.


spot on

I'd stick Cureton alongside Fallon, I feel they will compliment each other well and Cureton showed some nice touches tonight, the lack of an end product wasn't entirely his fault - nobody made themselves available and we had no width either. Fallon will be proper fucking fired up.

Indeed, Rory should see this as his big chance to have an impact at Swindon, hope he takes it.  I think he will.

Bristol City goal....  Puts him down for legendary status with me no matter what he does!  Without that moment of magic we never looked like scoring.  I also think a starting berth for him is fully up for grabs so expect/sincerely hope he's gonna go balls out for it!  He's our top scorer pre-season and has shown us he's got the ability - Luton away 03/04....

please stop referring to the City goal.  It was a complete one-off, never to be repeated.  That, in my book, doesn't make him a good player.

No but it makes it an orgasmic moment which I will be eternally thankful for - not a reason for starting him I agree.

Reason for starting him - he's the only real targetman in the team, although in fairness Roberts' won more than his fair share of headers on Tuesday.  Whilst I don't advocate the long ball, it's a tactic we ultimately resort to if ateam defends doggedly, as in this division it can sometimes be difficult/impossible to play sexy short-passing football.

See, i want Fallon to play, but when he does, it inevitably leads to more long balls.  I don't think Fallon is great at being a target man.  Now, nodding in crosses at the end of a well worked move... he can do that (probably).  This is the way forward in my book.  Width and crosses. Cureton/Thorpe picking up the pieces from knock downs/rebounds etc.  Sexy.
