I don't know if it's just me, but I thought that was bloody brilliant.  Richie and Kerrouche have stood out, but I think for this level with a new team we couldn't have expected much more.  Could easily be ahead.  Need to get the ball in the box earlier, and Flint's distribution has been poor.  Bit worried about Lanzano but it's early days.  Rotherham haven't really threatened other than the goal.

Rotherham are there for the taking.  If you hadn't seen the table, you wouldn't think it was Rotherham topping it...

What a great first half for Swindon, but still only 1-1.

Main issues for Di Canio: We are doing ourselves wrong by applying zonal marking on defensive set pieces in League Two - at least with players not used to it. Most goals against us this season has been from set pieces.

Comazzi and Lanzono both seems a bit shaky and rusty, but I hope they grow on this. Flint is putting a man's shift in - but he has still a lot of learn. The best centre back at the club by a country mile however!

I thought Kerrouche and Magera was lively on top, although the Rotherham defence did well to mark them out. I think we got a great striking partnership on our hands once they get to know each other better.

Rotherham is top of the league and must surely be one of the best teams in this division.

Matt Ritchie is better than this league and it's great that he's in a Swindon-shirt.

Ferry's distribution is ok, but he is a little light weight in the physical league two. I don't fancy McCormack and he showed why in the first half.

Kennedy and Caddis did their best. Caddis is not a Summerbee but he is versitaile

De Vita showed some small positive signs, but is way to light weight for this league - as a few others.

I would love to see Caddis in central midfield, a better wing back on the right side and Gabilondo or Esajas on the left wing instead of De Vita.

Bring on the second half!! COYR!

Agree that it was a good half.  But getting a little tired now of playing well and getting nil points.  Need to be utterly ruthless in the second half.  I'd swap all of PDC's 'passion' for a few points.

Hmmm, we've mostly been a team who can only manage one good half this season...Hope we can put another good half in.
