I’m feeling unusually optimistic for this one, let’s hope we see McKirdy that played at Carlisle last season. Big pressure on if we don’t get a result given the squad selected on Tuesday. 2-0 Town with 312 travelling fans

Key points from Scott Lindsey: - The stats show that Swindon should have scored by now - Injuries remain the same - Frazer Blake-Tracy adds versatility on the left side - Walsall line-up was because of fatigue from Salford, keeping Carlisle in mind - Players are reacting well and are still positive, showing the right attitude to get a win - Planning to discuss with McKirdy about keeping his cool against a former team - A win against Carlisle will put them on the same points as this time last season - Carlisle have had a good start and are strong at putting balls into the box - Feels the back three gives the team the ability to control games and win matches but is not set on one system

McKirdy to pull it out of the hat. New boys to click, and an identity to be found, to prove me and others wrong. 3-1 win.

Key points from Scott Lindsey: - The stats show that Swindon should have scored by now I'm sure they do, but I read this and thought "well, I'm going to read that as a tweet reply every time we fail to score this season". Not an especially wise thing to say. I think we'll win this one. Certainly bloody hope so!

I’m not sure our combined XG across the full season even reaches one goal yet. Bizarre thing to say

What stats? Fatigue? Pretty much the opposite of what I saw in the Salford game.

1-3 Town
Attendance 4,234 (432 Swindon)
After a shaky start we score from a defensive mistake, and suddenly start making chances.
One can dream!

Bizarre comments. I sort of understand the fatigue but it's 5 subs so surely could have had a bigger sprinkling of first teamers at walsall and rotated a couple at half time. The stats thing is ridiculous, we haven't had 15 clear cut chances. I reckon 2, both to Gladwin, the penalty and the one the defender cleared from nowhere against Salford. Nothing at Walsall. Yes we should have scored a penalty, I'll give him that, but 15 chances? - on that basis the opposition must have had 50+ then. If control means keeping the ball in our half for a few mins then we've achieved that.

They’ve got 10 senior players out injured.
Piece of piss. 1-4

Just need another 10 to get injured and we might score a goal.

Personally I’d started with the 10 who finished the Salford game. Only decent spell we’ve put together all season..

Would that give us the option of 6 subs?

Only because of the penalty at Harrogate... probably.

Agreed - I could understand if he said "we put in 60 minutes against a good side with 10 men and I'd rather have rested the players to prevent risk of injury... but fatigue?? We're 3 games into the season ffs. Maybe they wouldn't be fatigued if they didn't make them play against Cardiff (the only league pre-season fixture) if they played without the heaviest session week in their pre-season schedule...
