Swindon v Newport

[Indian Dan]

Should see our biggest attendance so far this season - swelled by the apparently huge number of plod on duty!

Got to say, Newport are doing better than I expected, albeit struggling to score. We’re so much better away from home so this could be an attritional game which could go either way. Hopefully 2 of our recent injured players, Baudry and Anderson, will be fit - 50/50 according to Wellens.

Can’t see many goals in this one, so I’ll go for squeaky bum 1-0.

This promises to be a very tough game. Newport haven't won in 3 games but with Matt and Amond up front will always pose a threat.

I think we'll have just enough about us to win. It'll be close, i'll go 2-1

Not sure I can believe what I’ve witnessed. Extreme shithousery from Newport aided and abetted by the most inept refereeing performance.

Newport are very good at what they do, but fuck me it’s pure anti football. Yet another long term injury after 5 mins and playing Newport with no central defenders isn’t recommended.

Can we play the top 7 every week? That’s 13 points from 15 against the best teams in the league.

Swindon more or less shut down for 90 minutes. An excellent away win.

Anti-football in the style of Lincoln City but on a meagre budget. I love it when the 'I'd hate to watch this style of football every Saturday' brigade think it's a travesty when 'football is not the winner in the end'. Crewe, Forest Green and now Swindon have tapped from side-to-side to little effect.

I do like a bit of pretty football, but I'll take three points at the end of a game every time. From where I was sitting by the way, the Swindon team seemed miffed when throwing themselves to the ground failed to produce the desired effect. We were no angel's and the ref was definitely on our side today I'll admit, but Swindon did their bit to cheat the ref.

You mean cheating when our captain ruptured his ACL?

The infamous referee David Rock who has already enraged Vale and Crewe fans this season!

The ref was atrocious ... that's for sure. Didn't seem to want to book anybody ... that's for sure.
