Swindon Town v Sutton United pre match drivel and matchday thread 23/24

[Qunk]

Austin’s second disallowed one definitely looked on from the iFollow camera angle

My view from the townend won’t have helped me judge it properly. Hopefully the poor fucker who has to put together the highlights shows it.

I may have misheard but heard Flynn say it was 4 weeks for Clayton which fits with what he’s said in previous weeks.
We’re at the point where we need to see someone in place of Brewitt, just to see if it really would make an improvement.
Just to shut some of us up for a while ( me included )

Four weeks for Clayton, Kinsella back next week with Khan and still reckons we need 1-2 signings. Nothing imminent still waiting.

I am sure it was just his frustrations blowing over I dont think there is any malice in what he did, he soon enough came back out to watch the rest of the game from the bench.

Charlie went down the tunnel after being subbed against Crawley, no-one mentioned it then.

Flynn said Charlie was happy at full time.

It's definitely entertaining. And going forward, the likes of Kemp, Young and RMH are super confident and very lethal. I even don't mind how Austin has evolved from pure goal scorer to a kind of elder statesmen who can drop deep and play some nice passes - let's just forget his strop.

But this time is so unbalanced. Both outside CBs go charging forward without much thought, leaving is so exposed through the middle, where a better team would have took advantage today. Of course they contribute a lot to our attack but there's got to be some balance there. With Hutton already not really that bothered to defend (failed to get back and get tight so many times today), we need our CBs to be a lot better at defending.

I hope the free agents are a CB and a defensive minded midfielder.

well that was harder then it should be. But then again we won so did it ultimately matter in the context of this game?

I've been to 5 league games and seen 31 goals. mental.

Wow! Just back from yet another cracker of a game. What entertainment!

Whether tightening up at the back would impinge on the attacking aspect I don’t know - but,  for now, let’s just enjoy it.

Thought Cain was v. good, Young, apart from his goals, looked very good. Ukakwe is coming on leaps and bounds.

For me, RHM settled the game - with one of the best individual goals I’ve seen for a while.

Sutton surprised me by not bring hoofy at all. The pen that wasn’t looked nailed on to me - I was right in line with it. Austin’s ‘goal’ was offside.

Could have been 10-6.

Brilliant stuff!

Did you struggle with the heat in the stand.

[Qunk]

We must be the most exciting team in the football league right now. As bad as it is for the heart, I’d rather that than the turgid shit we’ve been accustomed to for a while

[Audrey]

I’m way back up the DRS.

[Jimmy Quinn]

I’m way back up the DRS.

Best place up near Dukey maybe!

[Saxondale]

Just watched the Young penalty that wasn't and don't understand how the ref could miss that.  Clearly pulled him down. 

Anyway.  We won.

I think I just missed it but the Sutton 'Firm' we're apparently getting a little naughty outside the Arkells.  Think Mummy is going to give them a smacked bottom and send them to bed with no supper.

Top comedy reffing elsewhere

People are saying "we'd come unstuck against better teams". Are there many better teams in this league? Everyone says how shit it is. This Sutton side beat the league leaders(before today) 5-1, Gillingham are top with a zero goal difference and have already lost twice (to Grimsby and Colchester). I think we need to start thinking that even with our obvious faults we are among the best
