January can fuck off, it's November right now and we're a point off top so I'm enjoying that. Was a good win today, not a brilliant game but enjoyable to watch, and the kind of game we'd have lost late on last season. Happy with that.

Oh and I like Benda, he looks like a proper mad German keeper! I'm sure I'll come to rue that at some point between now and the end of the season, but he's great fun to watch

You mean the player that set up our first goal and played well all season. He has a hamstring injury hardly his fault, more our fault for playing him with an injury.
or declare yourself fit to play, when you are not.

If it really was, then Rob T made it much better.

Many of us would think that is the case but I don't think Bradford can afford to, without shuffling a few players around. Is it really worth them unsettling their squad, to bring back a player who doesn't fit their way of playing and/or to sit on the bench? Apparently we are paying nearly all his wages.
In my first sentence. Is that not clear enough? I can write it in french if it is easier?

Tbf, I think we're all thinking about this way more than we should. I'm sure both teams have various contingencies. Of other strikers around, Wes Thomas is banging them in for Notts County, there are strikers we could poach from within L2 as well. I just don't see Bradford unsettling their own side (as the table stands).
If Doyle loves it as much as he does here and Bradford make him available for sale, I'm sure we would put in an offer for him. Doyle thinking "likely to get promoted with Swindon, I'm happy and settled here, there's a good chance I'll be playing L1 in a few months in a team on the up". He seems to love it here and that's seemingly a huge factor for him right now.
Wes Thomas is dire. I know its only hypothetical anyway

That’s on our medical staff not him, if anything we should be thankful he is so keen to play. To be honest there stretch he made today to cause it would have put any hamstring at risk.

Got to say, getting 7000+ in that weather was a fantastic turnout.

Fair comment, well put. Dodgy hamstrings are the sign of an unfit player . . . are they not ? (cant spell aren't)
