Bringing on Moore for Bodin .... brave decision ! A bizarre and ludicrous decision more like and lucky it didn't cost us three points. |

Good win very pleased with that I can't believe Swindon kept on trying to play out from the back when we clearly had them in our pockets doing it.
I think you've got to have one of the best squads in the division to play that way and they are average at best and will probably get relegated if they keep trying it.
Playing Sinclair up top to stop them doing it was a very good tactical move too.
I thought Sweeny was very solid and could have Man of match and the keeper looks very confident and assured it certainly didn't look like a young keeper making his home debut.

I would have brought Monty on for him though, Moore couldn't pass to a Rovers shirt other than one very good lay off to Rory for a chance. |

Have to say that formation worked a treat, especially in the first half. Sinclair, practically the central striker, stopping them from playing their usual possession at the back game forced their keeper into several panics which should have resulted in at least one more goal. DC did his homework with sinclair playing there.
I thought Sweeney was brilliant too, extremely solid and Lockyer was back to his calm strong self as well.
Can't really complain about anything after that other than how it was only 1-0. Swindon looked out of ideas when they realised we were putting pressure on them so high up and didn't test lumley once.
Thank God for our home performances!!

Great debut from Sweeney .... just what was needed at the back. Some good competition for places there now.

We were superb first 40 mins then stopped playing, though we didn't need to as Swindon were sh*t.
Really don't get how we are so solid at home but hopeless away.
Now let's go nick a result at Rochdale- they got spanked 4-0 at home to Oxford the other week.

Byron seems really short of confidence .... just not clicking for him, wonder what the longer term outlook will be for him ? yes, he seemed very half hearted in the way he played today, he has a good touch but things just didn't seem to work with his passing. Monty would have been a better swap I think |

UTG I know your not keen on the diamond midfield[which i felt we played today] but it did work well today as swindon struggled to cope with sinclair hassling them at the front of it. |

Swindon were awful. Why the kept trying to play out from the back I'll never know.

Well done gas.

Couldn't make it today, how did Colkett play and what sort of reception did he get?

Still top performance by the gas , great turn out as well . I'm off up to the Swindon dogs tonight hopefully win a few quid and have a bit of gloat as well , happy days UTG !!!!!

Why he didn't use Montaño instead is beyond me. Fairly obvious he did a straight swap given Monty is a left winger? Although DC needs to get Moore & Gaffney back on form given that Easter & co aren't be picked anymore. |
