I noticed that too - it is a bloody hard league to get out of - upwards anyway (!)

Yeh i'd have to agree with Gorman.  Just look at teams like Plymouth, Southend, Huddesfield, Luton and Hull.  Not so long ago they were in league 2, but all these teams have been relatively successful since their respective promotions from league 2 (with some of these teams now playing in the championship).

League 2 is all about discipline, motivation and a strong work ethic.

If Swindon were to get promoted this season, then it wouldnt surprise me if we managed to make the top half of league 1, or even snatch a play off place

You did better in league 2 than the season you went down in league 1 though

I think saying league 2 is harder is perhaps a bit of a misjudgement, it is a lower division for a reason.
That doesn't mean it won't be tough next season and we will have to play solid, organised football to do well.
