Nothing happened in the first half. The second half was more of an event at both ends (which isn't saying much), and Swindon edged it. Once again, a set piece did the damage.
Plusses? Like Lancashire, Robertson looked more capable next to the excellent Preston. 3 clean sheets in a row shouldn't be sniffed at, and I think Wycombe were closer to their first team than we were. Knoyle tried hard and is an attacking threat - but I wouldn't pick him over Purkiss yet. Anderson is badly out of position but he does work very hard, every time. Cook is growing in confidence all the time. There's a lot of Wes in him.
Cons? I like Smith but, even tonight, he managed to get senselessly booked for kicking the ball away. We'll need to play a game without him or Norris soon, and we'll notice it for sure because there's no presence with Woolery or Gordon. Elsnik strolled a bit, and shouldn't play ahead of Goddard. Especially on Sunday. Dunne was back to his old ways of giving the ball, and fouls, away cheaply. Picking Iandolo out of position is our youth policy in a nutshell.
But it was never going to be a thriller, and it's another win.
A belated thanks for this! Onto tonight & as much as I despise the format I'm not going to buy into the theory that if we don't talk about tonights game it's not happening. So on that note how are we not using this as an opportunity to give Tom Smith a run? |

You aren't missing anything anyway, its like a reserve fixture, FGR are shockingly bad and can't string 2 passes together, probably the worst side I have seen all season, we are a bit better but its not a good game at all.
Mullin is trying hard to get their right back sent off, who has been booked already for pushing Mullin into the dugout.
Its wierd playing with 3 centre backs again.

I would imagine LP won't be very happy with DF if we lose this & cut off another revenue stream. I'd imagine the first real internal pressure may come his way if we lose this tonight.

FGR are awful, we are better but not by much.
The FGR number 2 Bennett will get sent off if he isn't taken off.
Mullin and Anderson are the only 2 players who look good enough today, Knoyle looks a fair bit off the pace at RWB, Iandolo has made a couple of runs from LWB but his final ball has been awful.
The rest are just going through the motions, we have not looked under any attacking pressure at all so far and although we have had 7 corners and all the attacking play we don't look like scoring.
I would say there is about 1,000 there if that with about 35 from Nailsworth.
Oh and just seen that Fitzroys son and ex Town yoof Jordan Simpson is playing for them today.

Awful defensive error cost us a goal at the near post with only FGRs 2nd shot on target all game.
