Overall, happy with that. Not a great performance as much as a great effort. For all their threat they didn't have many clear cut chances and we looked a threat on the counter. Good team effort.

Fantastic result for a patched up side. Onwards and upwards. We can make the play offs.

Great point. with a patched up team
Orient has more of it but rarely troubled Brynn.

Shocked! Thought a heavy defeat was on the cards!
Well done Jakey Wakey and als Harrison Minturn! Minturn showed that he can defend at this level. Hopefully that gives him confidence to kick on.

Well done Swindon a gutsy performance.
Last three games are promotion form in terms of our performances. Lucky v Salford, commanding v Harrogate and dogged v L’Orient.

Proper backs to the wall at times, we coped really well with their tactics under a lot of pressure.
Some good performances out there but for me its between Brynn for just being there in the right place at the right time which goes unnoticed a lot and McEachran who was outstanding for me.
Wakeling looked brilliant when he came on too, Tomlinson as well and Clayton both did well at the back.
Devine looked really good until the injury and RHM ran his socks off all game.
Austin, Hutton and Williams all looked a bit off the pace, Kadjo decent on the deck but woeful in the air and Minturn did mostly ok but looked a bit out of his depth at times, still did fine overall though.

I’ve just had to put Arsenals home win v Bournemouth into perspective with the DNA. And drew parallels with towns result today and recent results. No team who wins the league does so with aplomb, panache and not breaking sweat. You have to win ugly sometimes, play like Brazil sometimes and ride your luck in others. Today Both Swindon and Arsenal could be deemed lucky by a casual observer. But underneath the result there are and could be a myriad of circumstances that can explain the result more clearly that the score suggests. Part of the rich tapestry that is football.

So, all these players being lauded - and rightly so - were Sandra’s spreadsheet signings. Sure, we fucked up a couple with admin cock ups but this squad, if added to in the summer, will storm L2 next season.

Agree. Does have the same feeling as Wellens’ first season here in 18/19 when there was signs of a title winning side emerging, alongside some dross with what was left over by Phil Brown.

A well deserved point. Support absolutely outstanding. McGeachran looked great as did Devine until the injury (hopefully not too bad, was walking around on the pitch at the end) Minturn I thought did very well and not at all out of place. Charlie didn't do a lot to be fair... should someone else be captain I wonder?
