Not knocking you or the viewpoint. Have seen lots of versions of this on socials etc, not just in relation to STFC. I find it surprising, the standard at the World Cup is not amazing IMO. Excitement levels have been up there though.
Are these comments from people that usually don’t watch any non-Swindon football? I don’t think any national side would be troubling the top of the prem.
Just my view - currently watching us on one screen and the WC on another. Wasn't aware of what might be on tick tock etc

Strange how stats are used to sign players but are ignored when serving up dull football.

The direct comparison must be stark. Like when the kids play at half time

Lavinier looks an alright footballer but is very conspicuously right footed, he's cut inside a lot and really tries to avoid using his left.
Our football has been a bit higher tempo/more direct today, this isn't the dull possession football of recent weeks, even if it isn't yielding many chances yet.

Shade at times has the look of a player that could really impose himself in games, athletic, strong etc. Just not really happened for him yet. Do we play him in his ‘normal’ position anyone know? I have no knowledge of him pre-Swindon.

Think I agree with Hockaday. We play box to box but when we get to the danger zone we lack ideas and quality.

Assume it's Hockaday one co-comms. He's very critical for someone who could be best described as a journeyman player if I recall.

Half time. It's not been bad. It's not really been good either, but there's a bit more coherence in our team than in recent weeks. Just seem a bit shot shy. Need a bit of luck I think.
I should probably clarify that I'm painting the spare room whilst watching so it is literally watch the game or watch paint dry. The game is winning, but it's not by a long way.

0-0 at FT wouldn’t be a huge surprise would it.

Shade has played left wing, left wingback, right wing and centre forward in his career so far, he has also played as a number 10 at Leicester.

Absolutely, we look quite threatening even if we havent had much on target yet, Williams is making the difference. But, conversely we look like conceding with every Dons attack.
