Much tougher game than a lot of people expect today.
Barnet have gone to Pompey and won 1-0 in the LC 1st round, won 1-0 away at Morecambe who beat Creepy Crawley 6-0, drew away at Rotherham (then leaders), won 3-1 away at Colchester in the JPT.
A better team on the road than at home.
I am going for a 1-1 draw with a 7,248 crowd with barely 200 from Barnet.
Words of wisdom here....if we are to do something this season, then we need to get on a long unbeaten run. If it's going to happen today will be a pretty good indicator...as JJ says it's going to be difficult. |

Seeing as my predictions have been 100% wrong so far, I'll go for 0-2  |

From the station at Colchester
To the cells of Warrington
From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

A tight, dull 1-0 win i think and i'll be happy with that.
As mentioned now we to string some results together, performances are secondary to results

I fully agree with that, dull or not we need results, especially at home, win your home games and get a few wins/draws away from home and you will get promoted, we did it that way under Sturrock, not overly pretty to watch but scrape out wins by one goal and I will be happy witht hat, not sure all the Town fans would be the same though. |

6-0 to us.
I'm mixing it up by sitting with the stiffs in the Arkells as the old man has gone VIP today. I should probably leave soon.

If you are in the Arkells then dont forget to take the zimmer frame or at worst a walking stick to wave at the referee, that seems the norm up there! |

I'm already looking suitably unkempt and smell faintly of tobacco. I'll remember to bring a stick. It sounds as if Magera will be on the bench then so Flint/Comazzi in for McCormack sounds like the only change. I maintain my 6-0 prediction |

Oi I sit in the Arkells and don't fit that description, although the little group of old boys who sit in the row behind me certainly do We ha :Dven't drawn a game yet, so I've a feeling we might today 2-2. |

Swindon Town: Smith P; Caddis (capt), Devera, Comazzi, Kennedy; Ritchie, Ferry, Smith J, De Vita; Connell, Kerrouche
Subs: Lanzano (GK), Abdulla, Flint, Magera, Storey
Smith returns, no start for Flint ??!!
No wingers in the squad either.

Yeah quite a narrow side, surprised by Flint not starting though.
