Mark Kennedy on goalscoring: "Although we are low on goals, I dont worry about us on scoring goals or creating goals. I know actually we are very, very good at that so that dosen't concern me going forward."

We probably score a truck load of goals in training….








when the strikers are playing against our own defence!!!

Nice to see they’ve adopted our song when they score - pity we didn’t hear it a lot more at the County Ground.

A fair point by the commentators there that Vale's form had started to turn: 7/9 (now 10/12)

Tranmere :  1/9 (L Colchester, Gillingham both 3-0 A; D Salford H)

Harrogate:  6/9 (W  Bradford H, Donny H; L Crewe A)

Cheltenham: 1/9 (L Salford A, Fleetwood H; D chesterfield A)

Swindon: (3/9)

There we go.. Harrogate have had 2 impressive home performances but lost to Crewe and Cheltenham in last 2 away. Tranmere and Cheltenham are not in good form.

Time to get some points or start to get worried

The club interview from Mark Kennedy is much better than his radio effort

Really feel for him personally when he explained Jeff Kings absence



I hope he turns this around somehow as he seems a nice person. Unfortunately that doesn't win games.

I know it’s been covered but I just listened back to Kennedy’s post match interview on the clubs YouTube.

That first half or so is really really bad. The attitude and impression that we’ve come away to some Goliath of football and all week we’ve been shaking in our boots at what Port Vale are going to do to us. I can’t emphasise how poor and disappointing that is for a manager of Swindon Town in league two, regardless of all else.

It’s a sad state of affairs that we’ve been reduced to that. Whilst we don’t want to be fed lies or delusion, we also don’t want to be fed this rhetoric that we’re basically minnows in this division now and “shouldn’t be expecting to come to sides like Port Vale and win 3-0” from our manager. Where does the reduction in our standards stop? It’s laughable.

I’ve been fairly unmoved by talks of changing manager so far, we all know the issues in the club run much deeper and any replacement will likely be Gunning/Bignot but the pre and post match talk from our manager this week has really irked me, at the very least for us at this level, you want a manager who’s going to install some fight and belief into the squad and fanbase, not contribute to this slump in atmosphere.

Wellens had that character to raise the standards, take us back towards a “we’re a big fish in this division, let’s act like it” mentality even in somewhat difficult circumstances. Those standards from the manager feeds down towards the players and outwards to the fans. What we’ve got at the minute is a feeling sorry for ourselves/bordering on loser mentality.
