What tributes were paid to Cyrille before the game ? Was there a round of applause on 9 minutes as suggested earlier in the week ?

JDM didn't track his man and he was in acres of space to cross for the goal. Needs a rocket up his arse at HT, he doesn't look remotely interested.

We had nothing after our 2nd goal, expect them to equalise in the 2nd half if we dont change it

Tribute on the score board pre match, and I’m told there’s a HT video too which is an emotional one

And yes, 9th min applause from both sets of fans

Grimmer and maguire-drew are fine when we go forward but when the opposition attach its not working.

Doyle is the weak link in the middle. We’ve started to lose the game there really.

We looked ok at two up but caved in when the scored.

Thought we were on top - caused plenty of panic in their defence ok a few occasions.

I wonder whether we mightn't try to stop their ceaseless supply of crosses into our box

Swindon are a decent side up front and we are sitting too deep. 2-1 up but the writing is on the wall.

DECENT first 30 then crumbled when we sat deep again , biamou with a belter hopefully carries on now because 1 in 27 is not proving anybody wrong (a smidgen of consistency needed maybe 1 in 3 ).
Maguire drew far too lightweight defensively , bayliss sloppy at times or complacent is the better word .

Need to be better at the start of the second half as an early goal for Swindon would knock us back and I could see them winning

I thought Biamou would score today. In the warm up was the only one scoring. Pretty much every shot it was. Nearly every McNulty and Ponticelli shot were skewed wide.

Maguire-Drew's crossing has been poor. Been impressed with Biamou and McSparky and Davies and Willis were looking good, though the goal they scored was very soft.

Swindon moving the ball very quickly, but there are gaps to be found for us at the back.

Think we need another goal to seal this.

Agreed - our right side is weak defensively, it was the same against Stoke.

They are trying to play down our left (I assume their right winger must be good?), but are getting more joy down the other side.

Jury is out on JMD, some good touches and a willingness to attack but defensively is lacking and his positional sense doesn’t seem great either.

Davies is a rock as always.

Genuinely worried McNulty is injured too.

Lets hope Macca is OK , he is vital for us in this season . He is in great scoring form and a massive threat to the opposition

Glad he belted the pen its puts Carlisle pen to bed as well

Great ball over the top for McNulty from Biamou but it kept bobbling and bouncing and wouldnt sit.

Max wins the ball kn a good position plays a lobbed ball into the path of McNulty who gets ahead of his marker but a lack of pace let’s him down and the chance goes amis

Poor cross from Stokes.

Pitch is looking a bit boggy now!

Half expecting them to bring Richards on to score soon

Where did RCC get that kick from? Right into our box, Davies heads out for a corner.

Burge tries the same, reaches half way but nobody actually there as they are still running out from the corner.

Bad pass from Bayliss straight to them, luckily their player hammers it out of play.

DEEP cross from Shipley, Biamou tries to volley it back across the box but out for a corner.

Dangerous free kick for them, Shipley foules.
