SWINDON - BURY

[pumbaa]

Hello Coxy, good to see a ray of light after the crap handed out to us yesterday. Should have gone today, but i was violently ill overnight. Had the Ricky Shakes when i woke up

I was going to ask why you were quietly lurking around here...a little too much info though.

[kaufman]

so was it a classic own goal?

[Ginginho]

To sum up....good win, average peformance.
Some good spells, the equaliser was a great strike as a result of a good passing move.
Bury only threatened from corners, but to be honest they could have a couple of goals from corners.
The new guy Timlin looked OK, quietly went about his business and his confidence grew as the game went on. He is a good passer and played some nice football at times, so could be a good signing.
Ifil shouldn't be allowed to pass the ball and Phil Smith was like a waxwork in goal, he never came for anything.

[Chubbs]

I was quite bored for 80min, last 10 min was the most entertaining,

P Smith was average, made one decisive save, didnt really have much eles to do,

J Smith had a bit of a shocker at times but again played some good football

New guy Timlin, made some good passes, looked confident on the ball when under pressure

Roberts was utter cack, but how can one complain if he socres goals,

Shakes had a good game, played good football down wing, did his job.

All in all it was a win which we deserved, own goal or not, bury were shit.

They also had a 12th man, i.e the ref, who was giving them every desision, one of their guys should have been sent off for  kicking the ball away and pushing adie,but only got a yellow.

Oh well 2nd in league, cant comlpain.

[Scot Munroe]

Just got back from the game. Was not the best of games, but i will take the 3 points. Was Impressed with Weston and Timlin. Froze my ass off in the 2nd half. I also met Red Macca at half time. Nice Bloke.

Me and my Dad met Paul Davis aswell. Also a nice bloke.

[janaage]

Agree with Ultra, impressed with Weston/Timlin, however I did not meet Red Macca so cannot comment.

Oh and whoever glued Smith to the goal line needs a kicking.  Come off your line man, for the love of Jesus' dad!!!

Fair play to Roberts battled all match, I fear for Peacock's future though he seems to be losing his effectiveness.

Were there any Bury fans at the game today I was in the arkells and could barely here their cheers above the groans from the Town fans when they scored.First 35 mins was like a morgue in the ground today.

 Think the Boardroom problems have finally sucked the life out of so many fans.....I'd say it was more like Death Row rather than a morgue.

[PHIL!!!!]

Wasn't the best of matches and a few of the players could have put a lot more effort in, than they did.
Roberts played very well as did Weston.
Although he's my favorite player, i thought Peacock was poor today.....He's usually the hardest working player on the pitch, but today he did nothing. I was glad to see him come off, as i was Brown, who was also poor.
Back four looked tight enough, which was good.

[Bogus Dave]

i thought smith was being blocked by their striker for the goal, as he was for most bury set pieces.

Timlin played well, and dare i say it, so did shakes :shock:  rodney played well charging down the left aswell

[reeves4england]

Up to second!

No matter how badly we he played today or in recent games, the table does not lie. If we are crap I dread to think of words to describe the 22 teams below us! If we stay there it will do nicely for me but I think catching up Walsall is the kind of target Sturrock should be setting.

[Frigby Daser]

Haven't seen the Town End that dead in a while, it was depressing. Why aren't we singing Luggy's red'n'white army?

Poor performance, good win, happy days.

[Bartek]

As long as I am here Swindon hasn't been beaten  :king:
It seems on another lucky win...Let's thank Fitzergald !!!

Think you answered your own question! The team have to lift the fans on a cold, miserable day like today and by the sounds of it they weren't all that inspiring!

[ibelieveinmrreeves]

Somewhat fortuitously, due to the flooding and subsequent train delays, I missed the first 25 minutes. All got a bit better when I got there. Was shocked by the morgue like quality of the ground today though.
