Doesn't matter how good the recruitment is if the manager is useless. Attacking football my arse
It's clueless football, watched 6 halves of football and 5 were relegation level. We don't even get touches in the box.
If the new “Swindon way” is to constantly pass it back to the goalkeeper (the worst examples when we have a free kick in the opposition half) then this isn’t a Swindon i will spend many pennies watching. Not entertaining for me.

I want to know if Sandro was successful at Wigan how did he end up in the basement league.
Or last 6 months. Interesting on the NTT20 pod. The hosts knew of Di Michele from his time in betting, and stumbled over their words to suggest they weren’t convinced he was right for a DOF role. A bit like most on here aren’t convinced by Lindsey in his first head coach role. Or Gunning in his first coaching role. Or half the squad, in their first professional year. You look at it that way, and its no surprise to see this start. This is a club with inexperience at every turn. It feels like such a regression from just 12 or so weeks ago when we were last at Walsall.

If you don’t create chances you won’t win football matches. It’s tedious, it’s boring and it’s not working.
Second half we lost every battle on the pitch.
Must be mad driving to Carlisle but can only hope our fortunes change. 20% uplift in budget and all about stats. Almost laughable to think football is about scoring more goals than the opposition yet why don’t we create fuck all.
Leave that to the experts.

As I previously stated Duke football isn't played on spreadsheets😀

Ref waves play on, then when they screw up the advantage, awards the pen and sends our lad off.
Another crap ref.
On another note, we created sod all and have no goal threat.
The lino flagged and the ref waved play on. Ref consults lino and changes the decision. All avoidable if we simply cleared our lines. Sounds familiar.

Sounds like it was a reasonable performance for a second string until the penalty and sending off. I would have loved to have won today. I hope for his sake more than anything that Lindsey gets his first win soon! How many fans did we take? I could hear our fans on the radio comms quite a bit.

Games - 3 Goals Scored - 0 Goals Conceded - 5 Red Cards - 2
Some start to the season.
You should add chances created and shots on Target. Still 9,000 home attendances, excellent travelling support and we are not competing in a shite league.

I was also a bit concerned by what Elek and Maxwell said or what they didn't say about Sandro. If they rated him they would have said so. The fact that hey didn't suggests they don't. Having said that I don't think the main issue here is the recruitment. We have a manager who has managed to make Louis Reed look like dogshit. I think that says it all. Would imagine that Clem, Angus, Sandro will be looking for managerial candidates.

Even more for those travelling Saturday with no trains running. Would be special winning up there with this dismal start. Can only hope it’s the start.

Just think of Bolton away under Williams when your lad didn't want to go!

Really interesting to see that even some of the more level headed Town fans on Twitter are questioning the manager already.
I hate to say it, but Clem and the board have really ballsed this one up.
