Feels like a loss right now. I'm a bit gutted really. Hopefully tomorrow I'll see it as a good 3 points.

Also, what on earth was Mahoney thinking from that kick off? I seriously do not understand the thought process, so it is just a genuine question. When it’s all going batshit, and the one thing we was in control of was the kick off, I just cannot understand how we thought that was the most optimal way of taking some of the pressure off

Flynn:
- Would have seen it all if they scored the equalizer at the end
- So typical of us!
- Didnt see that coming for 90 mins of the game
- Decided to give t hem the impetus and a bit of a hand
- They nearly punished us for sloppy, sloppy play!
- A very very good performance for 90 mins
- It didn't slip from out grasp. We were superb and got the 3 points
- With think about it aall night and all tomorrow
- We need to make sure it doesnt happen again
- We have thrown away wins away. We tried to do that again tonight
- 7 points in a week with 2 away games. Very pleased
- The manner of how it happened and how we looked so fragile is concerning
- Flynn takes some of the blame with the subs. But we had enough experience out there
- Young: He's hungry. He's loving his time here and you can see the smile on his face
- Khan: First of the season. What a way to do it. Great strike. Encouraged him to use his left foot

I mean, they had taken well over 20 shots, our GK was going to be the man of the match and saved a penalty, but I guess that isn't seeing it coming.  Also, not letting something happen again when it has happened again and again.......

Wonder if Flynn took another dig about us scoring in injury time so everything being fine!

[Whingy the poo]

Jesus Christ.

Sorry lads but those 3 goals where my fault.  

I turned the radio on to listen to the last few minutes and totally jinxed it!

Khan:
- Only positive is the 3 points
- Will enjoy the win tnight and look at what went wrong at the end tomorrow
- When you are on the pitch you are in a zone. Gaffer and others on the sidelines can see it coming.
- Austin told him before the game to shift it on his left foot and strike it
- When you are playing holding mid its difficult to score. When given licence to go up and down the pitch in the last couple of games then it is easier
- It is hard when you are expansive and the opposition exploit gaps
- We have to learn to attack and also be aware of potential dangers of the gaps we leave. We don't see the danger at the moment
- Even when we were winning games earlier in the season, we were conceding lots
- Learning curve for us is to be aware of our surroundings when we attack so we don't leave ourselves open

No

Hold on everyone, we've spoken before about giving the youngsters a chance, when 4-0 up on 90 minutes is the time to do it so don't blame Flynn, everyone switched off and thought they had it won.

Hahahaha fucking Swindon , couldn't make it up

I mean for any other club in the world - what you’ve said makes perfectly logical sense…

…at Swindon however.

[swindonmaniac]

We could be 9-0 up in the 90th minute and still only win 9-8, but WTF a wins a win !!!. 

[Nemo]

Mild amusement (I'm sure nothing to read into) in Khan crediting Austin for telling him to use his left foot and Flynn crediting Flynn for the same!

[Legends Lounge Lovechild]

interesting flynn said he told saidou to shoot more but saidou just said "before the game chas said if you get the ball on the edge of the box shift it onto your left and hit it so thanks to him for that"

[DV]

Still. Chaz comes on and scores the winner

Funnily enough I fixed a parcel of his on Friday and said to my work colleague he owes me now by finding form and scoring a few goals.
