Which again suggests we've got a bit of a goalkeeping problem at the moment in terms of form and confidence.

Not for me. I was confident today with Smith between the sticks.

He made a few little errors but nothing as stupid as the ones Brez has been making. He still pulled off some top saves to keep us in the match and without those saves we wouldnt have won.

I find with any players, it takes them a few games to get back into their stride but after today I think the keepers shirt belongs to Phil Smith and its up to him to lose it before Brez gets another sniff.

 Big pot game at Aldershot first....it would be good to make some progress in this, given our execrable recent record in cup away games, it would be a turn up....but the result today was important because takes a bit of pressure off MM.

Have to say I am confident of Phil Smith's shot stopping ability, but always worry with crosses into the box.

As said, the save he made in the second half from the header was simply superb, but he did flap at a few crosses. That said, I'd say he did well enough to keep his place.

The defence played much better this week, especially Jack Smith.
First time I've seen Casal play, and I thought he did alright.
Ifil's defensive work is first rate, but his distribution lets him down.
As for Aljofree, he got a load of stick for putting the ball into touch, but as he was running back towards his own goal Phil Smith shouted to him to get rid, so that's what he did.  There was no way he could tell from his position that he had time to control the ball & clear it up field, and the abuse he got wasn't necessary.  That said, he should know better than to react and gesture to the crowd.  On the whole though the had a good game.

As it has been said, Marhall caused them problems when he came on, but I thought that McNamee did when he was on (in the second half).

Odd that the stats say we had 58% possession, cause it seemed like we conceeded possession a lot, and kept it tight.


All in all a great win today, the only thing that could have made it better, would of been Sean (the greedy bastard) O'Hanlon giving away the pen as well  Cheesy

Its great that we have two good keepers,i prefer Brez but it shows that although we dont have a massive squad players who fall below the standard will get dropped..that hasnt been the case for alot of seasons.

McGovern could be third choice now, Easton started ahead of him today and the way Marshall has been playing wont be long before he deserves a start.
Have to say with Marshall i thought he was quick but a bit clueless, the more i see him the more i think he is technically pretty good, im very excited by him, could be a right sided McNamee in the making

I hate Dongs, I love Swindon - Brilliant result. Now if you will excuse me I'm off to the Newcastle city centre for some beverages, Swindon songs and a possible punch in the face... Hopefully not the latter, but you must be prepared!
