Top 8....
...of L1 Group C. Job done, hopefully.
Still a lot of work to go yet, on and off the pith.

We'll end up around mid table if we manage to keep key players fit. If we don't it could go to the wire...but I'm confident we'll be a League 1 team next season. Seen recently how a team can propel up the table with a few wins (unfortunately I'm referring to Oxford). Plenty of points to play for.

Play all season as we did last night we will not only stay up, we will GO up. But that just wouldn't be Swindon.

If we keep players fit and play like that every week, we're definitely staying up.

If we play like we did against Ipswich every week then we will be on the edge of playoffs. If we play like we did against Franchise every week then we will be relegated.
I suspect we will be inconsistent and hopefully just avoid relegation.

Skybet offering 18/1 with a maximum bet of £20 for Swindon to finish in the top half... £380 return... Surely worth a punt?!

I can’t help but think of beating Charlton 4-1 on Sky in January 2011. That proved to be a one off. I hope this isn’t the same.

This. Although yesterday there were signs that the tide may well have turned in our favour, Travers and Thompson both made huge difference to the defence and rumour is we are signing a new centre back from Forest, replace Caddis with Freeman and thats almost an entire new back 5 including the keeper. One swallow does not make a summer as Linda Lovelace says but the signs are encouraging for an upturn.

Yeah whilst there are some similarities about the results. This season we are bringing in new players and shipping out deadwood. That season after that game we sold both Charlie Austin and Sean Morrison who were probably our two best players that season.

Depends on injuries. Still have big CB issues given how injury prone Conroy, Fryers and Baudry are. They probably won't get through February and March with double gameweeks which means Odimayo and Grounds starting at CB which is weak.

Judging on yesterday's performance we'll not be in any trouble come the end of the season.
