COVID has probably impacted us more than any other club. Killed all the momentum we built up and destroyed what little interest/money Power did have left. Now we are just on tick over until a change of ownership or financial oblivion, seemingly nothing will change until we reach either of those points.

I appreciate that, but we can only judge on what he does for us and like the majority of players for us the end product seems to be to smash it into the first defender or into the stand.

Look i don't mind criticism, everyone has an opinion. I don't think Swindon as a team have had any luck at all this season over most games.

Tonight irrespective that he is a winger the two main chances created this evening were both by him so far , and a 3rd was his own when he should have scored , he has worked hard and that's all I ask of any player, it just hasn't worked but you cannot fault work ethic.  Its easy blaming or creating a scapegoat but there are 11 players on the pitch ... and watching it now at 94 minutes he is still creating with a corner...

We can't afford to sack him while Power is in charge of the club.

Wellens knew that this squad wouldn't be good enough and I doubt we will be playing Salford next season

Sadly no idea how we can improve much more with the players we have.
Once the first went in the game was over.

Maybe it's blind optimism, but I think there are seven or eight players on the pitch who are absolutely good enough. It doesn't help at all that they get picked in weird combinations and positions as the squad is so horribly unbalanced, but the main problem is that none of them are a goal threat. Don't think we can underestimate how much Pitman's (thus far) failure has hurt us.

Sheridan's contribution so far has been to get rid of our attacking threat but keep our defensive frailties.

M Smith is the one bright spot in this shit show of a season.

Bit of a comedy penalty. Don’t really care at this point.

I don't doubt the squad is good enough to stay up, if they're well managed and relatively fit. They're not.
